Engine reliability:

Overall, this engine can last around 230,000 to 390,000 km if properly maintained, using the correct quality oil and fuel, and carrying out regular checks and maintenance.
The engine has hydraulic valve tappets (lifters), which provide quieter operation and do not require periodic adjustment, but are more complex in design and can cause serious engine damage in the event of failure.
Engine displacement 4163 cm3
Number of cylinders 8
Bore (cylinder diameter) 84.5 mm
Stroke length (piston move) 92.8 mm
Compression ratio 12.5 : 1
Camshaft drive Timing chain

Chain motors are considered more reliable, chain replacement usually is required less often than a timing belt, but they are often louder and vibrate more.
