This turbocharged engine recently appeared and there is no collected data on its malfunctions yet. On forums, it is mostly praised, but some rare electrical glitches are complained about. Due to direct injection, the unit is prone to carbon buildup on the intake valves. Engines of this series suffer from detonation, and now they have also increased the injection pressure. Additionally, there is some fancy catalyst here, let's see its lifespan.
