Shortcomings, breakdowns and problems of CZEA

Complicated and expensive ACT system causes uneven camshaft wear

Owners of cars with such a power unit very often complain about the oil burner

Also, it often wedges here, and then breaks off the thrust of the turbine wastegate actuator

The plastic pump with two thermostats is prone to leaks and needs to be replaced entirely

Every 60 km, you need to check the timing belt or the valve will bend if it breaks
