Disadvantages of the KKDA/KKDB engine
You’ll have the most problems with Delphi’s fuel-hungry Common Rail system;
If the filter replacement interval is broken, the repair becomes expensive;
The high pressure fuel pump, injectors, and even the tank must be disassembled in order to repair fuel equipment;
Nozzles frequently start to pour after 100,000 kilometers, which causes the pistons to burn out. At this point, the crankshaft pulley damper and camshaft position sensor are frequently replaced.
