- This motor regularly worries about trifles and especially the vagaries of the injection system;
- Also, revolutions often float here due to contamination of the throttle or fuel pump grid;
- The motor mounts and almost all attachments do not differ in reliability;
- In the engines of the first years, the crankshaft pulley key was often cut off and the belt slipped;
- At high mileage, piston rings usually lie and oil consumption appears.
