This engine is considered capricious and also difficult to diagnose and repair.

Inlet valves, throttle assembly, USR valve are quickly overgrown with soot here

The extremely short-lived timing chain here can jump after parking in gear

A modest resource has a phase regulator, ignition coils and a nitrogen oxide sensor

After 100 km of run, rings often already lie down and oil consumption appears
