Common Problems
Renault Duster Engine Problems - What It Costs to Fix & When Replacement Makes Sense
The Renault Duster relies heavily on the 1.5 dCi diesel and the controversial 1.2 TCe petrol engines. Every rebuilt engine supplied through EngineMarket includes upgraded internal components designed to address the original failure point - plus a minimum 12-month unlimited mileage warranty.
1.2 TCe Timing Chain & Oil Consumption - The "Motorgate" Crisis
1.2 TCe Timing Chain & Oil Consumption
Most affected vehicles
Renault Duster 1.2 TCe 125 (2012-2018H5F 400/401/402)
Renault Duster 1.2 TCe 125 (2012-2018, H5F 400/401/402)
Failure mileage range
40,000 - 80,000 miles
Typical failure window
Root cause
Premature timing chain stretch and a flawed piston ring design that causes severe oil consumption, eventually leading to catalytic converter failure and engine seizure.
Repair options & estimated costs (UK ranges)
| Repair tier | Dealer price | Specialist price | What it involves | Longevity / suitability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Minor - Preventative Chain Kit | £1,200 - £1,800 | £700 - £1,100 | Timing chain, tensioners, and guides replaced before catastrophic failure. | Extends life by 50k+ miles if caught before oil loss. |
| Full Replacement - Short Block | £3,500 - £4,500 | £2,200 - £3,000 | Engine stripped, block replaced with updated pistons, cylinder head retained. | Restores full reliability with corrected factory parts. |
| Full Replacement - Rebuilt Engine | £3,800 - £5,000 | £2,500 - £3,500 | Complete rebuilt H5F unit with upgraded timing chain and oil control rings. | Best long-term solution; includes 12-month unlimited mileage warranty. |
Our recommendation
If your Renault Duster 1.2 TCe is rattling on cold starts or consuming more than a litre of oil every 1,000 miles, do not delay. A preventative timing chain update is viable, but if oil consumption has already damaged the catalytic converter, a fully rebuilt engine with updated pistons is the only cost-effective fix.
