The Most Common Problems Of The 1.4 CRDi D4FC engine
- FUEL SYSTEM: This diesel is equipped with a completely reliable Bosch Common Rail fuel system and on the forums they only complain about frequent failures of the fuel pressure regulator on the rail.
- INTAKE POLLUTION: A lot of trouble for the owner here is the rapid contamination of the intake manifold, it has to be cleaned every 31,000 miles. About the same time, the EGR valve is clogged.
- TIMING CHAINS: A timing chain, consisting of a pair of roller chains, is distinguished by a very modest resource, sometimes they stretch out and rattle strongly already by 62,100 miles, and when the valve jumps, it bends.
- OTHER DISADVANTAGES: Another weak point is not the most reliable low-pressure fuel pump, crankshaft position sensor and regular oil leaks from under the valve cover.
The manufacturer declared the resource of the D4FC engine at 124,200 miles, but it also serves up to 186,400 miles.

Conclusions
The Hyundai U series also includes internal combustion engines with indices: D3FA , D4FA , D4FB , D4FD and D4FE . At the very beginning of 2010, a 1.4-liter diesel of the U2 line debuted on the Kia Venga model.
The engine was offered in two versions of 75 and 90 hp, but with the same torque of 220 Nm. Structurally, this is a modern diesel engine for Euro 5 economy standards with a cast-iron block and an aluminum 16-valve DOHC head with hydraulic compensators, a timing chain drive, a conventional MHI TD025S2 turbine and a 1800 bar Common Rail fuel system from Bosch.
In 2014, an updated version of this engine appeared under more stringent Euro 6 economy standards, which featured a reduced compression ratio from 17 to 16 and a torque increased to 240 Nm.
