Turbo charging has been around quite long and should be reliable right

Still can see Evo 3 and many older WRX

saying this cos I kinda like the new Civic FE

reliable or not they will still wear and tear over time.
our hot climate and traffic congestion will increase this factor.

turbo cars will incur extra maintenance and its not cheap if you need to replace the snail.

but the feeling when a high boost turbo kicks in is hhggggggnnnn.

problem is no matter how much stuff or balancing shaft u add to ease the vibration
3 pot is still 3 pot, it's not balance
the balancing shaft only prevents the vibration from reaching the cabin/driver only
sooner or later, weird noises are going to come out

look at out viva, kenari, kelisa...the belting noise is infamous

noise that a normal 4 cylinder engine will never have

kancil, kancil!

dun leave out kancil the most famous of all for noise and whatnot! brows.gif

which manufacturer have actually?
because i've never seen before

even those japanese pickup truck turbo also drive until fail thn change recond one laugh.gif

preve owner, only a small percentage take it to outside turbo specialist to be serviced...most don't
and if those parts fail, it's not cheap either laugh.gif
whenever u drive beside a 3 pot car, there is always some weird noise coming from them
the most infamous one is belting noise...which is unresolvable(at least in the long term)

changed it, tighten it....it still comes back...mine is somemore japanese car
that's why i promise myself not to go back to 3 pot engine

it's only fine for the 1st 5 years, after that....problems and sound started to come out that even my 14 years old proton saga don't have

i mean it's reliable, it never breaks down on me but there is just things that 3 pot engine cannot beat 4 in-line

all my latest purchase are all 4 in-line engine...no means no for me laugh.gif
*
i own a few 3 pot cars before and never had any noise related to the belt.
sure there noise everywhere when idling or at low rpm but tat comes with the territory of owning a 3 pot car.

could be the problem is unique to you or you got better hearing than most brows.gif
anyway i agree 4 pot engines is the way to go for comfort.
if anyone has driven an inline 6 before they would know its even much, much smoother.

and yeah turbo maintenance is non existent here.
seal and bearings need to be replaced.

many do no know a turbocharger spins in excess of 100k rpm thus will wear and tear faster than other parts of the car.

Accord g8 3.5 v6 had these features last time. Cylinder deactivation.  For fc matter, why make it v6 and 3.5 size engine remain my inquiry.
*
Cylinder activation has been around since the 1980s.
this is a first for a 3 cylinders car.

thats cheating, thats still a 3 cylinder engine

like a cpu, a core sleeping doesnt mean the cpu has 1 lesser core.
*
the point is they have make a 3 cyclinder car tat can run on 2 cylinders.

modern 2 cylinder cars do exist.
google tata nano, suzuki celerio diesel, VW XL sport.
