- Timing Chain Stretch (THP & VTi Engines)Serious
The 1.6-litre "Prince" petrol engines are notorious for timing chain tensioner failure and chain stretch, which can lead to catastrophic engine damage.
- High Oil ConsumptionModerate
The petrol engines are known to consume significant amounts of oil (up to 1L per 1,000 miles), which can lead to low oil pressure and accelerated engine wear.
- High-Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) FailureSerious
The high-pressure fuel pump on THP models is a common failure point, leading to poor running or a non-start condition.
