MR16DDT 1.6 DIG-T
The turbocharged Juke engine, and quick enough to make the car genuinely entertaining. Direct injection means the intake valves collect deposits, so a car with no decarbonising history will feel flat.

Engine and component issues
Rough cold idle, slow throttle response, misfires, gradual loss of low-end response. Direct injection puts no fuel over the intake valves, so crankcase vapour deposits bake on undisturbed.
Check: Not visible without a borescope. Treat it as a service item that's due unless there's a receipt. It's not a fault, it's an unbudgeted maintenance cost.
Chassis, gearbox and body issues aren't listed here. They depend on which car the engine is fitted to. Open a variant page for the merged list.
