Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of K14C
This motor has been produced for more than five years and so far has not been noted for any special problems.
The presence of direct injection here contributes to the formation of carbon deposits on the intake valves
The turbine is still serving normally and cases of its rapid failure are still rare
There are complaints on the forums about the timing chain stretching on runs of 100 - 150 thousand km
Monitor the condition of the cooling system, aluminum internal combustion engine does not tolerate overheating
