- 2.2 CRDi EGR Valve Carbon Clogging & DPF IssuesModerate
Urban short trips cause soot buildup in the EGR valve and cooler, leading to sticking valves, reduced power, and frequent DPF warning lights.
- AWD Dynamax Electro-Hydraulic Coupling WearSerious
The Magna Dynamax AWD coupling can suffer internal clutch pack wear or pump failure if tyres are unevenly worn or fluid changes are ignored.
