Disadvantages of the Mazda HF-VPH engine
- On specialized forums, they often complain only about weak traction at low revs.
- Like all direct injection engines, the intake valves are overgrown with soot here.
- But the main thing is that this is a rare unit and spare parts for it are expensive and not very common.
