This turbocharged engine has recently appeared and there is very little information about its problems. On relevant forums, it is not heavily criticized and only minor electrical glitches are mentioned. There are complaints about sudden vibrations that disappear after a restart. Like all units with combined injection, it is demanding in terms of fuel quality. It is also important to monitor the cooling system, as aluminum engines are sensitive to overheating.
