Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of AAT

One of the most reliable diesel engines of its time rarely worries its owners

Most of the problems are associated with malfunctions of the Bosch VE37 electronic injection pump

The aluminum head is afraid of overheating, it quickly leads mating surfaces

Replacing a timing belt with rollers is expensive, but it always bends when a valve breaks

At high mileage, the turbine, mass air flow sensor and hydraulic lifters may require replacement
