Hello, looking at a 2018 Mazda 6 wagon, 2.2 diesel, 184hp SkyActiv-D. Couldn't find much in the way of reviews or long-term experience specifically about this updated engine version.

As far as I know, the 2012-2017 models had some issues with EGR/carbon buildup, timing chain tensioner wear, injectors, and a few other things. Wondering if anyone here has this newer version and can share how it's been treating them?

Curious if the facelift actually improved things or if it's basically the same engine with the same weak points.

Thanks!
