The problem

Due to oil carbonisation and high contact pressure, the 7 mm camshaft chain resistance can be reduced in vehicles, fitted with the DV5R engine. This may cause the camshaft chain to break, leading to engine failure. This can increase the risk of accidents and injuries.

The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles
