Faults, breakdowns and problems of the B20B
This power unit is very reliable, rarely breaks down and only at high mileage.
Most often, owners are faced with oil leaks through camshaft seals.
There are breakdowns in the cooling system, the weak point here is the pump and thermostat
After 150 - 200 thousand kilometers, the risk of a sudden breakdown of the cylinder head gasket increases
Every 40 km, valve adjustment is required, since there are no hydraulic lifters
