This is not a very powerful engine, it takes almost 20 seconds for the minibus to accelerate to one hundred kilometers per hour. However, in terms of reliability, it's not bad, breakdowns only occur at high mileage. Due to cheap oil, hydraulic compensators and camshafts can wear out quickly. The injector mounting with a single bolt can loosen over time and leaks can occur. Service technicians consider the turbocharger and tandem pump as potentially weak points of the engine.
