Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of the G4LE internal combustion engine
This motor is not officially supplied to us, so there is little information about it.
Engines of the first years came under recall due to antifreeze getting on the EPCU board
Like all direct injection engines, this one suffers from carbon deposits on the intake valves.
Closer to 200 thousand kilometers, some owners had to replace the timing chain
But the main problem is to recognize a modest choice and high prices for spare parts.
