Disadvantages of the DV5RE engine
Since this diesel engine is so new, not enough is known about its shortcomings.
Owners have so far primarily complained about the EGR valve’s quick contamination.
Bad diesel fuel and infrequent filter replacements are intolerable to fuel equipment.
Keep an eye on the timing belt’s condition because a major overhaul is in store if it breaks.
This unit requires an AdBlue charge, just like the rest of the BlueHDi series.
