Disadvantages of the F6JA/F6JB engine

The engine has high standards for diesel fuel quality.
After 100,000 kilometers, issues will arise if the fuel filter is changed on a regular basis; injectors typically break first, followed by other Common Rail parts; oil burn frequently starts at high mileage because of piston group wear;
Here, both the turbine and the power unit’s front support have limited resources.
