Disadvantages of the Mitsubishi 6A11 engine
- The tight layout of the engine compartment seriously complicates engine maintenance;
- According to the regulations, the timing belt is changed every 90,000 km, but often it breaks earlier;
- Also, the expensive idle speed regulator very often fails here;
- If you do not change antifreeze for a long time, then the heat exchanger will rust, burst and begin to leak;
- It is very important to monitor the oil level, otherwise you are guaranteed to turn the liners.
