Known weak points

  • Timing chain and chain tensioner wear/stretch causing rattling on cold start and potential timing faults at high mileage
  • EGR valve and cooler sooting from heavy-load/short-trip use, causing rough idle and visible smoke
  • Diesel particulate filter clogging on vans used mainly for short urban deliveries
  • Bi-turbo actuator and vane mechanism faults causing underboost and limp mode
  • Rear suspension bushings and door hinge wear from constant heavy loads
  • Flywheel and clutch wear accelerated by heavy payloads and frequent stop-start driving
