Disadvantages, breakdowns and problems of DADA

Due to the relative novelty of this motor, there is little information about its malfunctions.

The engine is very picky about the quality of fuel and it is not yet delivered to us

It is not known how a variable geometry turbine will behave on a gasoline engine.

A fairly massive problem with 1.5 TSI is the so-called Kangaroo effect.

The malfunction is expressed in a push when releasing the clutch in first gear
