Disadvantages of the VW CBZB engine
- The first year of production, the main problem of the motor was a very low resource of the timing chain.
- The updated chain runs about 100,000 km, but immediately jumps when stretched.
- The turbine geometry and wastegate control electric drive often fails.
- Also, this engine is famous for periodic vibrations at idle.
- Another disadvantage is the very long warm-up of the engine in the cold season.
