This simple and reliable engine only bothers its owners on high mileage. Most often, various problems with the ignition system are complained about on the forum. The main cause of fluctuating revs is throttle valve contamination. The timing belt is recommended to be changed every 60,000 km, but it does not cause valve failure. After 200,000 km, oil consumption or ticking hydraulic lifters are often encountered.
