Defective inserts were found on these diesel engines of certain years of production. Cheap oil contributes to the wear of hydraulic compensators and cam lobes. Over time, the pump-injectors secured by only one bolt can start leaking. The culprit of engine power losses is usually a stuck turbine geometry. Another weak point of this engine, according to service technicians, is the tandem pump.
