Faults, breakdowns and problems of the B18B
This series of motors is very reliable and has virtually no characteristic weaknesses.
Against the general background, only a thermostat and a water pump have a limited resource
After 200 km of run, the risk of sudden penetration of the cylinder head gasket increases
The timing belt is designed for 90 km, and if it breaks, the valves can bend here
Every 40 km, valve adjustment is required, since there are no hydraulic lifters
