Disadvantages of the ED4 engine
- For a turbo engine, this power unit is quite reliable and does not cause much trouble;
- Its weaknesses include an unreliable electronic throttle and a thermostat unit;
- Also, the fuel pump and crankshaft pulley damper are distinguished by a modest resource here;
- By 200,000 km, the timing chain is often extended or oil consumption appears;
- Hydraulic compensators are not provided and the valves periodically need adjustment.
