Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of the J4D internal combustion engine
First of all, these units are famous for the low resource of the cylinder-piston group.
Usually, overhaul is required on runs of 150 - 200 thousand km due to oil consumption
There are no hydraulic lifters here, and once every 30 km, valve adjustment is necessary
If you ignore the sound of valves for a long time, then the camshaft will quickly become unusable.
Also, this motor often fails due to the failure of one or another sensor.
