Disadvantages of the EP6FDT engine
Many of the issues with the EP series no longer affect the power unit because it has been significantly updated.
Regretfully, the timing chain resource is still quite limited; it hardly ever travels 100,000 kilometers.
Like its predecessor, the motor cokes easily and needs to be cleaned from carbon deposits on a regular basis.
The electromagnetic clutch in a mechanical water pump’s drive frequently malfunctions.
Although the new high-pressure fuel pump is more dependable than the previous one, fuel quality must meet strict requirements.
