First and foremost, power units of this series are known for high oil consumption. Lubrication is not only consumed through evaporation, but also constantly leaks from the seals. If you overlook a significant drop in the lubrication level, it may cause bearing failure. The unreliable cooling system often leads to engine overheating. Severe overheating results in knocking sounds in the cylinders and requires engine replacement.
