Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of CJSA

The most serious engine failures are associated with a drop in oil pressure in the system.

The main reasons lie in the bearing strainers and the new oil pump.

Not a very high resource here has a timing chain, as well as a phase control system

The cooling system often fails: the thermostat is buggy, the pump or valve N488 is leaking

Approximately every 50 km it is necessary to adapt the turbine pressure regulator
