Disadvantages of the Porsche M05.9E engine
- Diesels of the EA896 line suffered from rapid wear of the injection pump, it simply drove chips;
- But this unit appeared at the very end of the release of the series and bothered a little less often;
- The weak points of the motor include swirl flaps and a tee of the cooling system;
- After 200,000 km, timing chains often stretch here;
- Also, a lot of trouble can be caused by contamination of the particulate filter and the EGR valve.
