Honda Civic 1.5T Earth Dream engine is weak when driving

Q: Honda Civic 1.5T Earth Dream engine, electronic turbocharger, high-pressure injection structure. Recently, I feel that the vehicle is weak when driving with air conditioning. Basic inspection found that the engine oil increased. Some maintenance technicians said that the high-pressure oil pump was damaged, and some maintenance technicians said it was a design defect. How should it be solved?

A: Honda Earth Dream engine has two common problems: one is that there is occasional gear noise when starting. Replacing the starter is ineffective. In fact, it is caused by the abnormal noise caused by the variable timing adjustment wheel, which needs to be recalled and replaced. The second is that it suddenly stalls when driving on the highway in rainy days. The engine fault light on the dashboard alarms. The maximum speed is less than 40km/h. After about 15 minutes of shutdown, the vehicle can return to normal after restarting. The above two types of defects are both within the scope of free recall, but please pay attention to the warranty period of the vehicle. If you can smell the gasoline smell in the oil increase described in the question, it may be due to the late injection time of the direct injection vehicle. You need to find a 4S shop to upgrade the software program. If the high-pressure pump leaks gasoline, you need to replace the high-pressure pump to solve it.
