This additional gasoline ends up mixing with the engine oil, a known problem with these engines.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>The particulate filter, the source of the problem<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>The video points out that gasoline leaking into the oil damages the timing belt. Belt fragments can clog the oil pump screen, compromising engine lubrication. A &#8220;chin&#8221; or &#8220;cut&#8221; odor in the oil is a symptom of this problem.<\/p>\n\n<p>In addition to the belt damage, the video reminds of the need to change also the water pump belt and the auxiliary belt.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Limited durability and solutions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>The video is pessimistic about the belt&#8217;s durability, even after replacement, estimating a service life of only 50,000 km. It also discourages quick fixes such as reprogramming or adjustments, recommending a visit to the workshop to solve the root of the problem.<\/p>\n\n<p>In summary, the &#8220;La Solucion Del Automovil&#8221; video identifies the particulate filter as a factor that aggravates the PureTech engine&#8217;s problems by increasing the amount of gasoline that leaks into the oil and damages the timing belt.<\/p>\n\n<p>For more information, you can watch the full video on the La Solucion Del Automovil channel on YouTube.<\/p>\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Coru\u00f1a, Spain &#8211; The YouTube channel &#8220;La Solucion Del Automovil&#8221; focuses on the particulate filter as a key factor aggravating the well-known problems of PureTech engines, also known as &#8220;PudreTech&#8221;.
