Disadvantages of the HUBA engine
- Most of the complaints on specialized forums are related to the phase control system;
- In second place is oil consumption and usually due to clogged crankcase ventilation;
- Also, owners often encounter leaks in the front camshaft oil seals;
- The timing belt does not always run the required 120,000 km, and when it breaks, the valve bends;
- After 100,000 km, a pump, fuel pump or turbine may already require attention.
