Engine reliability and common problems:
The engine boasts a simple and reliable design.After 100,000 km, piston knocking is a common issue. Electromagnetic Ti-VCT valves often develop leaks, and high-voltage wires frequently disconnect. The engine is also highly sensitive to the quality of fuel used, requiring premium-grade fuel for optimal performance.
A significant problem with this engine is damage caused by debris from the catalytic converter. These particles scratch the cylinder walls, which is particularly concerning because the aluminum construction of the engine block prevents reboring. This issue can severely shorten the engine's lifespan.
The timing belt often fails to meet the stated lifespan of 120,000 km. Regular inspections are necessary, and replacing it after 80,000 km is strongly recommended. A broken belt can cause severe damage, including bent valves, damaged pistons, and scoring on the cylinder walls. In such cases, repairing the engine is not feasible, and replacing it with a used engine becomes the only solution.
