Disadvantages of the Audi CJEB engine
The primary issues with this engine are related to a decrease in the system’s oil pressure;
This is caused by clogged bearing strainers or oil pump malfunctions;
Here, the timing chain is quickly removed, and the phase regulators are short-lived;
Numerous cooling system malfunctions: a pump with a thermostat or valve N488 is leaking; boost pressure actuator adjustments typically help with frequent power outages.
