The engine requires good quality fuel, maintenance and oil, otherwise problems with the common rail system can be expected. Problems are most commonly associated with the EGR valve and intake manifold.Overall, this engine can last around 210,000 to 360,000 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.
