2011-16 1.4L Turbo:
What broke and at how many miles?


Wanna make a one stop place to share what has broken on these cars and what miles.. so that you can prioritize your preventive maintenance interventions.

@ 3 years and 36,000 miles the O-ring on the coolant surge tank cap was leaking. FIX: Coolant Odors/Coolant Loss from Reservoir
@ 3 years and 36,000 miles the little lenses inside the headlight housings that hang in front of the turn signal bulbs had fallen off.
@ 3 years and 36,000 miles the front crankshaft seal was intermittently chirping. Never got better or worse. Finally replaced 5 years later.
@ 7 years and 99,500 miles the driver's window regulator failed.
@ 8 years and 100,000 miles the little snap clip that holds the driver's side sun visor in place had lost its snap.
@ 9 years and 103,000 miles, the water pump outlet housing started leaking. Also, the valve cover started leaking and was replaced under special coverage.

So far that's it.

I have broken the outside temp sensor and the corrugated hose going from the filter box into the turbo inlet, because I couldn't leave well enough alone. I've also snapped off a couple of radio antennas while removing snow. Gotta get my shark fin installed.
