thnx a lot my friend

Is this AI voice over? Why can't you just voice it yourself

While telling us about the #2 engine, the 2.4 Tigershark , more than half the video loops shows a grand Cherokee, which has never used the 4 cyl Tigershark, but the fine 3.6 Pentastar V6. Plus the no longer built original Cherokee that was available with the 2.4 TS, that was after I test drove one to buy was awful and underpowered, especially in a 4x4/awd version! But I bought a very nice running 3.2 Pentastar V6, a smaller bore 3.6, tuned for mileage in the lighter Cherokee that ran great in my opinion, with a 9 speed automatic, that unfortunately came to a final drive that was so high the 9 th gear was never used till 80-85 mph! That if Jeep had offered a lower differential setup the power to the ground would have been even made a quicker vehicle! Possibly getting more highway mileage! Due to the use of 9th gear at legal cruising speed. Today I’m driving my second 3.6 Pentastar in a new Gladiator with 8 speed automatic that’s fantastic for what it moves, a 4,500lbs + brick, that still gets me over 20 mpg up to 70 mph! Or overall average of 18+!

🤔 This video smells of planned obsolescence!

not all european engines are trash , mainly the italian ones hahah

Stellantis's 1.2l wet belt 3 cylinders deserves to be on this list imo ^^

IMPRESSED! Finally agree with one of these lists. The Nissan qr (quality reduced) probably the best of the lot sadly. The turbo turd 1.0 isn't worth fixing if anything goes wrong. The theta and nu haveade me a lot of money. It's sad, almost all of these have 1 major problems. Their manufacturers cheap out in the wrong areas. But hey they don't want the car to last longer than the warranty. If that was really true there would be no 5.3l Chevy. They make their money upfront or on things other than the engine and for the most parts transmissions. As a mechanic the most consistent engine to go over 300k iss the 5.3l Chevy. Too bad they won't be making them for too much longer with their fuel consumption issues. I can guarantee that every single one of them they ever make will be bought immediately upon announcement if their discontinuation. And then the appreciation $ begins there is really only one way to kill the Chevy.$6plus a gallon fuel.

ANYTHING CHRYSLER PERIOD

the 2021 sonata shown has a Smartstream engine not a Theta 2. Wrong Car displayed

I refuse to believe the QR25 is terrible, the amount of these on 3 bald tires, a spare donut and everything held together with duct tape while doing 40 over speed limit at all times tells me its the best engine ever produced.

most reliable engines that they dont make anymore because they made too much torque: toyota 5sfe 2.2

Chevy/Buick is going to see the wet belt issue bite them in a few years. All the new Trax and Envista's have them.

The Kia engines are a weird one... If you don't get one that had debris in the crankshaft, they'll go forever with proper maintenance including induction services. I work at a Kia dealership, and I see both. We are replacing hundreds of engines a year, but at the same time I see cars roll in with their original theta ii engines with way over 200,000 miles. Kinda crazy.

Direct injection is part of the problem because the engines don't have port injection Port injection will clean the intake valves and it's better at keeping the Pistons clean they have problems with the PCV systems they also 9 out 10 of them have a high pressure fuel pump cam driven and if the fuel pump starts to leak into the engine and you can dilute your fuel or your oil with fuel and therefore you're going to have diluted oil getting up into the piston rings and with the heat that these engines create they end up sticking and then you're piston rings aren't doing the job to keep everything clean you know separated yeah new cars are pain especially with all the computers they have in them and they track everything you do

I just sold my old 2012 Elantra. The engine had a horrible rattle that sounded like a tin can. When the issue first started at around 60k miles it would only happen when you’d do a cold start and wouldn’t sound so bad once the engine had warmed up a bit but by the time I got rid of it it didn’t matter. I remember seeing letters from Hyundai in the mail all the time about recalls, and had to replace my steering column at around 75k/80k miles. It still got me through my 20s and the majority of my 30s though so despite all the BS I’m grateful it wasn’t worse

2.4 Theta motor owner here. (2011 sonata) I currently have 318k miles, originally motor, lack of maintence (motor has never been opened). Just oil changes, sparkplug replacement, air filter changes. Oil pan gasket changes. I treat mine like a 90s mazda owner. Just keep up with the oil and it's good to go

Los motores Ingenium y Puretech sobre todo son mucho más problemáticos que el Ecoboost

Any junk from Europe don't belong in a video about reliability!!! I'v worked on cars proffesionally with 10 ASE certifications since 1979 and have seen for myself that there is not one Eurojunk car that you could give me. They are ALL such junk it would be a waste of my money to even insure the junk. I speak the truth from experience. The way they drive, the kind of people who drive them ( the cars are all just a status symbol), the frequency of visits to the shop for repairs, the high cost of parts. And the way they all feel like an American car that's ready for the junkyard, also how many old ones you see one the road. The simple fact is they will not last 20 years like an American or Asian car will No matter how well you take care or it. And all VWs over a couple years old STINK!!! Smells like hot tar, I would puke if I had to ride in one for a long drive!

Hey guys, thanks for backing me up!!! I just left a comment on the part 1 of this video and left a true, very true evaluation of European cars. I trashed all of them real bad. And then I came across this video only to find all the engines you mention are Eurojunk!! So I want to sincerely thank you for agreeing with me. And a word to everyone out there. ALL junk from across the Atlantic is nothing but a status symbol for stupid people without a clue about anything mechanical. And I swear by that statement!! DO NOT BUY!!! YOU WILL REGRET IT!!!!

Do not ever let any european influence of any kind mix with any good American or Japanese car. Chrysler made a great product all the way from their 4 cyl to the V8 engines at one point. When they started hanging around with the king of overpriced junk, Mercedes their product's reliability went downhill. C'mon guys, what are you thinking? Nowdays the Aiaian cars are #1 in reliaability, American cars are #2 and Eurojunk cars are in last place as they always have been in addition to being overpriced to buy and to be repaired.. Only stupid people without a clue buy the junk because they think the junk is a status symbol. I'm a retired ASE master certified plus the advanced level eng performance test and a machinest test for eng assembly. 10 certifications all together. And I am damn good at assembling any stock or hi perf engine and can figure out any check eng light problem without guessing as most mechanics do. And have seen for myself that ALL cars from across the Atlantic are only good for boat anchors. JUNK. I won't even watch a u tube video about all American cars if the narrator has a Brirtish, German, Itilian, French, Spanish etc accent. I do not understand why people even buy them. All German cars are overpriced and they all feel inferior to the cheapest of any American cars like a Chevy Vega or Chevette, Ford Pinto, AMC Gremlin, or Dodge Colt. Obviously anyone who buys any overpriced Eurojunk has never driven an American or Aisian car of any kind and certainly not any upscale car like a Cadillac, Chrysler, Lexus, Acura etc. Because if they did they would realize what a mistake and how much money they have been wasting all their life. And I also want to mention 2 other horrible ideas. Probably thought of by some stupid BMW or similar junk engineer. Who in their right mind would put a timing belt on an interfierience fit engine. Most 4 valve per cylinder engines are and almost all modern engines are 4 valve per cyl. So use your brain and design any modern engine with a chain. And put the injectors back where they belong. And the intake valves will stay clean and excess fuel will not get into the crankcase to dillute the oil. Also what;s with 5w20 oil?? Maybe ok for Alaska but not for Arizona where temps can reach 120. The lowest I have ever used in any modern car is 5w30. Nothing lower, period, Too much technology and not enough common sense will kill reliability every time. Think about the slant six. or the Ford 4.9L truck eng or the many variations of the small block Chevy, the 302 Ford. Take your 4.6 ang 5.whatever triton angines and stick them. The're as big as a 440 w 270 cubes ( that's 4.6L) where a 302 is the smallest of all V8s and packs 302 cubes into a compact cute little indestructable and powerful package. That's my 2 cents worth. ,,

Just my luck have a Camry hybrid! 😂

I've got a 2000 BMW e39 with an M52 engine, 445000+ km later it still runs like new

4:39 isn't that Fiat Doblo? Also, Stellantis is rolling with 1.2 Puretech - unreliable construction, problems with oil consumption, timing chains sh*tting themselves after not long distances...

had the qr25 in my 2005 spec v step 1 cut the balance shaft chains or if youre bored remove them entirely this is a couple hours work at most step 2 proper block back stainless exhaust. frankly this should just be standard on all cars who isnt sick of rusty exhaust? car and engine ran a treat and were still going strong in 2020 when i sold it

Totally agree about qr25de nissan, u should add about the notorious spark plug seals that integrated into the whole valve cover, meaning that u should replace the whole valve cover if u want to replace the spark plug seals. And for 2 decades this problems still persist and never corrected by nissan. I once owned a nissan T30 qr25de less than 100.000 kilometers its already had a major problems

i own a car with a theta 2

A wet timing belt? What are the people at Ford smoking? Seriously!

Yeah dude, thanks for the ear shaking bell ring during the video

I would never buy a turbo

I got a 2019 F150 FX four eco-boost 3.5 eco-boost 225 miles 00 problem

what about the 3 litre diesel motor? better fuel economy

The way that Kia gets you is that while the engine is covered, the hoses and belts are not. When I got my Sportage back after a new engine was installed, I also had a bill of $700 for the hoses and belts that needed replaced.🤬. While the Kia is a fairly comfortable and easy to drive vehicle, this will be the last Kia/Hyundai that I will own.

My 2013 Hyundai 2 l turbo is still working fine. Good fuel economy, lots of power, doesn't burn oil. I added a catch can. When I first heard of debris left in the engine, I added rare earth magnets to the drain plug. Hyundai called mine in. The cheack was a free oil change and they cut the filter open. They replaced my magnets. No debris was found. I do oil changes more often than spec'ed. And oil over "SN" spec has detergents for carbon in the oil from the GDI, to increase timing chain life.

I own a 2021 rouge with 26k and it runs greatish, Its no hemi charger but It seems to be ok for now.

vvt was such trash!!!!

Can’t believe how colossal of a failure the Hyundai/Kia 4 cylinders are. Pair that with the poor maintenance from their owners and they are all destined for super premature failures. Insane that they used that engine for over a decade, especially when their entire sales tactic was the warranty they fight so hard to honor.

My 2005 cadillac 3.6 has 190,000 miles. It's somewhat earned a bad reputation, but oil changes and oil levels are the key to longevity.

I have 307k miles on my 2004 Chevy Express van with 6.0 LS engine. Plus, it burns zero oil. Thanks for interesting video. I'm now a subscriber.

Most engines use direct injection these days

This is why all those EV haters who tell me my Bolt will fail long before their ICE are full of it......🤣

Hyundai doesn't use the theta II engines in any vehicle instead for the 2.0l they use the Nu .

U fotgot the verry infamous stellantis/psa 1.2 puretech its a verry much worse engine compared to the ford ecoboost

I now change the oil in my 2013 Kia Optima LX 2.4 non-turbo every 4 months or 3000 miles. Used to take it to the Kia dealer every 5000 miles when I was driving 50 miles a day on an interstate highway to work. The engine performed perfectly.....I think getting the oil up to operating temp for an extended period is crutial...it boils off any blow-by products and prevents them from contaminating the oil to any great degree. The dealer used a blended oil....I now use a full synthetic oil and Kia/Hyundai filter. I do not drive much since I retired. Kia recommended 5w20 oil but as I crossed 75,000 miles I switched to 5w30 and the engine seemed to run quieter and a little smoother. I plan on changing the plugs very soon. I think 12 years is long enough on the original plugs. The timing chain cover is starting to seep oil but not enough to be significant between changes. Dealer wanted 1500 dollars to reseal the cover...I imagine if the cover is removed it would be best to replace the timing chain and guides. Another 500?? I am 76 yo and will be doing it myself. The major reason I have stopped using the dealer for general maintenance is that I do not like the fact that no matter what the situation, even with an appointment, I will have to wait for an oil change a minimum of an hour and a half and am not allowed to observe. It is worse than going to the doctor. If you do your oil changes yourself just keep good records and change it often. Going on 79000 miles on my Optima and am satisfied with it.

Anything that has the word ecoboost.. stay away! from belt powered oil pumps, to single use oil pans, to cracking and leaking cylinder heads... all for cost cutting...

You missed out the current 2L Landrover engine

I have a Focus with1.0 ecoboost and 200.000 km, with no problem, no power loss, hardly any oil use. So I am curious about the real data of failures, instead of just repeating what other youtubers say (who don 't own a 1.0 ecoboost either).

Tellingly, ALL of the engines on this list mainly affect the low(er) cost car models on the market. I can't help but wonder if it's deliberately encouraged by regulators to push marginal buyers out of the market entirely. At the very least, it proves that low end buyers don't matter to the OEMs or government regulators.

Run from the theta 2.4 engines, there's a problem with oil consumption. The 2.0 theta engine doesn't seem to hav the same issues

much as rhe ford ecoboost, the PSA Puretech 1.2 turbo engine is.... also shit.. Source:; i work as a PSA mechanic

All hyunday new engines are pure shit
