Disadvantages of the XUD9TE engine
- The main disadvantage of the motor is the low location of the expansion tank;
- Because of this, the coolant level often drops and breaks through the cylinder head gasket;
- Follow the procedure for replacing the fuel filter, otherwise the high-pressure fuel pump will not last long;
- When installing a new fuel filter, there is a risk of damaging its expensive glass;
- The use of low-quality oil reduces the life of a turbocharger by several times;
- Once every 100,000 km, here it is necessary to adjust the thermal clearances of the valves;
- On specialized forums, cases of falling out of the prechamber directly into the cylinders are described.
