    They should be good engines. MTU had some issues right out of the gate with them, (first 150 sets) but should have been resolved. I've seen a higher number of the accessories fail on them compared to MAN and CAT ( injectors, alternators, coolant pump, starters, etc.) but all in all good engines.
