Engine: 2.2l Diesel (P22DTE, P22DTE+, PUMA C)

Engine of the Month Ford

1.0l T EcoBoost

If you liken a V8 engine to Mike Tyson in his prime, then the notion of a 1.0 ltr, 3 cylinder is like Boris Johnson stepping into the ring!... Isn’t it?

No, it’s actually very good, being fuel efficient and dare we say it, quite lively; giving the feeling of a much bigger engine. This peppy little unit has been fitted to larger vehicles such as the Focus but is really punching above its weight here. The Fiesta is a better match, with its lighter more agile chassis.

In just a few years it has become the go-to engine where diesel power isn’t needed, selling in it’s hundreds-of-thousands across Europe and beyond.

Depending on spec, the baby powerplant pushes out up to 123 HP, which is a lot to ask of a 3 cylinder and as a result needs to be revved to get the most out of it.

FAI is firmly in the Ecoboosts’ corner though, offering a great selection of parts to get them fighting-fit again. Visit faiauto.com/ecat for full details.

Vehicle of the Month Nissan

Qashqai II

2013>

The 2013 incarnation of the Qashqai built on the success of the first generation, with improvements on interior space and equipment. A great allrounder for families, Nissan had hit a sweet spot in the market.

The second generation brought with it a new engine line-up that gave credible options in both petrol and diesel power. Small but peppy 1.3 turbo for the former and a highly popular 1.5 dCi covering the latter; replacing the need for a large diesel unit. Another tick on the wish list of consumers as the noisy 2.0 lump in the previous gen was not well received.

The Qashqai offered a solution to a problem many didn’t know they had; the need for a cross-over that was barely larger than a VW Golf - seemingly offered at the right time, propelling a family favourite to the best-selling vehicle of its type in the UK.

The need for a quality repair has been at the heart of FAI development for this much-loved Japanese vehicle. We have developed a significant 100+ components, covering both chassis and engine.

Development

FAI industry insight has recognised the subsequential effects of modern advances within manufacturers’ ICE technology.

Soot deposits are commonplace among all engines as they’re engineered to meet ever increasing tolerances, in the effort to improve efficiency. However, the impact on components within the engine can be an unfortunate byproduct of these advances. This cycle is more pronounced for vehicles with longer service periods, and especially for vehicles that are used daily for short journeys, where engines don’t fully heat to optimum temperature.

Carbon deposits that work their way into the lubrication system can cause damage to any internal component but, creating a common pattern of wear on the Timing Chain and associated parts such as sprockets and integrated cam sprocket; as seen on the DV5 engine.

The continual cycle of wear on both sprocket teeth and chain leads to incorrect load. The result of which can allow the chain to jump, shearing a tooth, chain stretch or cracks within the chain bushings.

The DV5 is extremely prone to failures of this type. Please refer to the specifications below to identify which kit is fitted to the vehicle. Depending on region, there will be a variance of overlap on manufacture dates, therefore a visual inspection is necessary.

Solution

To provide our customers with the most comprehensive repair, FAI has developed a full kit, replacing Cam Carrier, Camshafts, Chain, Tensioner and seal.

This allows for an Aftermarket repair, in line with OE specifications, matching the design of components supplied by PSA from the end of 2022.

Modifications to cam carrier and chain, provide a more robust system which can be fitted to any vehicle currently manufactured with the 7mm variant. Note: The entire 7mm kit must be replaced with 8mm components.
