Is the BKD engine reliable?
The BKD engine used in various VAG cars is a very good and reliable unit. Head porosity was very rare and only afflicted a few cars in my experience.
Turbo failure is common on this engine but apart from that they do not suffer injector or oil pump/balancer shaft issues and are a very reliable and widely used engine.
