Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of the internal combustion engine B37C15A
The main problems for the owner are the EGR valve, which is called AGR here.
It is he who is to blame for sudden failures in traction, loss of power and twitching
Compared to the N47 diesel engine, the timing chains have become a little more reliable and run up to 200 km
However, the intake swirl flaps here also quickly overgrow with soot and jam
A lot of trouble, as usual, is associated with the whims of piezo injectors and a particulate filter
