- Also in this diesel engine, the intake manifold flaps are often dirty and wedge;
- The motor is famous for numerous leaks, usually by 100,000 km it is already covered in oil;
- And the heat exchanger flows especially strongly, because of which the liners can lift up;
- The turbine runs for a short time, it is spoiled by crumbs from a cracking exhaust manifold.
