In this diesel engine, there was a marriage of high-pressure fuel pump and a company was held for a free replacement
Intake manifold swirl flaps can jam up to 100 km
Timing chains run for a long time, about 300 km, but replacement is expensive
At about the same mileage, piezo injectors or a turbine may already fail
A lot of costly problems for the owner are delivered by the particulate filter and the EGR valve.
