Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of A14NET

The motors of the first years of production suffered from the destruction of the pistons due to detonation.

Also, even before 100 km, oil consumption may appear due to the fault of stuck rings

Quite a lot of problems are caused by a capricious crankcase ventilation system

The pump and the upper guide of the timing chain do not differ in great durability

Less common, but there are turbine failures or intake cracking at low mileage
