Chevy 2.7L Turbo. Hit or Hype!

Topic starter

Hello - I need some honest advice on the Chevy 2.7L turbo engine.
The manufacturer makes some eyebrow-raising statements that are questionable. Do you believe the 2.7L turbo engine will live up to the hype and be as reliable long-term as the Vortex?

"Vortec"

No absolutely not.

  • turbocharged
  • direct injection (carbon buildup, and failing pumps & injectors)
  • cylinder deactivation

 

We already know this is a bad recipe. A lack of maintenance will destroy this engine very fast.

As usual, there are electrical problems too which have been the subject of recall.
