Sedans released 8-10 years ago are now offered in the range of 1.5 to 4 million rubles, and about 40% of ads are all-wheel drive versions with a mileage of just over 100 thousand kilometers.
“After all the modernizations, the 1.4 and 2.0 petrol turbo engines have become quieter and more reliable, and the premature death of the piston group has almost stopped. They last 250-300 thousand kilometers, although ailments appear around 150 thousand – carbon deposits in the combustion chamber, clogged oil paths, stretching of chains (on 1.4, where the timing belt drive is belt driven, the oil pump drive chain is vulnerable,” said “Behind the Wheel” expert Sergei Zinoviev.
But the main headache for the future owner, as the expert warns, does not lie in the engine. The Achilles heel of the model was the transmission. The buyer has no choice: all versions are equipped with a seven-speed DL382 robot with two wet clutches.
The box certainly has potential, but its repair can seriously hit the budget. Friction clutches tend to wear out quickly, and the dual-mass flywheel and some bearings sometimes do not last even 100 thousand kilometers.
