Disadvantages of the Audi DNWA engine
- Most of the problems with this engine are due to the owner’s desire for tuning.
- However, without a radical increase in power, the unit does not cause much trouble.
- Even an aluminum block with plasma spraying instead of sleeves runs without problems.
- On specialized forums we were able to find complaints only about cracks in vacuum tubes.
