On forums, people often complain about the noisy operation of the unit and excessive vibrations. Additionally, this engine does not tolerate overheating, causing gasket failure and significant leaks. Active owners may need to replace the timing chain before reaching 100,000 km. Around this mileage, oil consumption due to ring deposits is also common. Weak points include the adsorber valve and short-lived engine mounts.
