Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of CAJA

The most famous problem of the motor is the oil burner due to scuffing in the cylinders.

Another cause of lubricant consumption is often a defective oil separator.

Cracking when starting the internal combustion engine hints at the critical wear of the timing chain tensioners

The low resource here is different pump and high pressure fuel pump

After 100 km, catalysts often pour out, and their particles are drawn into the cylinders
