This engine is afraid of overheating, so carefully monitor its cooling. Continuous overheating and low-quality oil contribute to the formation of scratches. Scratches in the cylinders lead not only to knocking, but also to significant oil consumption. A decrease in lubrication pressure in the system often results in the rotation of the inserts. After 200,000 km, timing chains may stretch, and to replace them, the engine needs to be removed.
