The issue is carbon build up long term. Discussed extensively on youtube and mazda forums.
do you mean all direct injection engines are bad?Btw mazda 3 engine is direct injection. Good luck to those buying
@assiak71So direct injection of mazda no good or all DI e.g. honda no good?

If you have read extensive enough you will probably realised the carbon builds up on DI engines if you (1) dont clock enough mileage - merely driving your car to your nearby coffeeshop daily, (2) don’t occasionally rev your engine to the red line - not everyday but you can do it once every few weeks.
Afterall, its a give and take kind of situation where DI engine (skyactiv) yields better fuel economy but with the possibility of carbon build up if you didnt do either of two aforemention points to ensure the engine operates at the optimal (higher) temperature.
Honestly speaking i havent heard much about skyactiv engine running into major issue in singapore. So whats the real concern?
Because cars and petrol are too ex in Singapore. Owner don't rev their their car. When I told many people, I always rev to the red line.
Many colleague and frds looked at me in astonishment, would it explode? Seriously... Most vehicles I had, I rev to the red line occasionally. Whether it 16500rpm for motorcycles or 7000rpm for cars ...
not really. cars with sun roof, 2 doors, 2 seaters, above 2liter cc and/or luxury ones tend to rev.Because cars and petrol are too ex in Singapore. Owner don't rev their their car. When I told many people, I always rev to the red line.

ya! Honda not good for you. Mazda also not within your pocket, also no good to you.DI not good means dont get honda DI too?
@assiak71
so how? done with your budget? what car are you looking at?
OR just buying the engine first?
do you mean all direct injection engines are bad?
multi ports injection engines are good?
??
See again. My qn any diff from uncle Honda?

if don't rev to clear carbon, just use something like this?
nowadays workshops have machines to clear carbon also..
not really a big deal right... just fuel consumption start to go up, maybe slightly sluggish etc
