Disadvantages of the VW CHHA engine
The adjustable oil pump’s malfunctions are linked to the motor’s primary issues;
The engine’s liners may rotate as a result of a significant drop in lubricant pressure;
The timing chain and occasionally the phase shifters need to be replaced after 100,000 kilometers;
Every 50,000 kilometers, the boost pressure regulator V465 must be modified;
High temperatures frequently cause the water pump’s plastic housing to crack and leak.
