Watch Out: Why New Car Engines Are Built To DIE Early!

In Kazakhstan we have 50% cars over 20 years, but modern cars often fail. Especially BMW poor quality.

the solution is easy.DONT BUY NEW DISPOSABLE JUNK!!!!

planned obsolescence ! that really rubs me the wrong way.

Biggest problem is plastic engine parts: intake manifolds, oil filter housing, valve cover and injectors, vacuum line, and coolant lines. The plastics bcome brittle and break. Replacements are expensive and poor quality.

Thanks for your public service to educate the public Mark. Brilliant narrative, all true.

With my 1967 Econoline and my 72 Mustang, you really have to struggle to find any plastics under the hood, but with my wife’s 08 Ford edge you have to struggle to find any metal

The plastics will only endure so many thermal cycles before failing.

Worked for a OEM Automotive Parts supplier for 20 years. The manufacturers kept pressure on for a lower part cost at the same quality. This results in the cheapest part possible as long as it meets the OEM's specific quality specs. The specs were mainly dimensional and a low part per million failure rate during the warranty period.

Absolutely right. Planned obsolescence. We vote with our money. Keeping used cars running longer and longer will send the message.

Avoid These CRAP Engines THAT WONT LAST 60,000 MILES. https://youtu.be/FbDGgFRTn5o
