Wasn’t the engine but everything else .... fuel injectors, fuel pump, and coils to name a fuel but was definitely a bad ass engine with great tuning potential! |
I get this argument after hearing it so many times but its kind of hard to separate the overall package. Sure problems with the engine itself would be worse but does it really make you feel better that its robust while everything else around it is problematic? The whole package should preferably be reliable to really call the platform reliable and ease ownership stressors. If the fuel injectors and fuel pump required by the N54 are unreliable I'm going to say the N54 is unreliable and not distinguish between them as mutually exclusive.
