Common Failure Modes

Nockenwellen-Verschleiß

Symptoms: Timing-Drift, Spreizung

Causes: Langzeitbetrieb, Schmierung

Preventive: Nockenprofile bei Docking.

Auslassventil-Hot-Corrosion

Symptoms: Abgastemperatur steigt

Causes: HFO-Korrosion, Rotocap

Preventive: Ventilinspektion alle 8.000-12.000 h.

Liner-Verschleiß

Symptoms: Ölverbrauch

Causes: VLSFO, Langzeitbetrieb

Preventive: Scavenge-Port alle 4.000 h.

Expert tips

💡 S60MC-C hat die breiteste Erfahrungsbasis aller MC-C-Motoren — MAN Service Letters reichlich vorhanden
💡 MC-C → ME-C Retrofit: Besonders für S60-Plattform gut dokumentiert und wirtschaftlich
💡 VLSFO: BN40-Zylinderöl, Feed-Rate anpassen — bei MC-C keine elektronische Dosierung, Sight-Glass-Schmierung prüfen
