Disadvantages of the Audi ADP engine
- This simple and reliable power unit does not often bother its owners;
- The biggest problem here is the regular contamination of the crankcase ventilation;
- From strong vibrations in work, washing the nozzles and the throttle most often helps;
- The thermostat and antifreeze temperature sensor have a very low resource;
- On a long run, an oil burner and knocking hydraulic lifters are often found.
