PARIS: Airbus is facing a new batch of technical problems with some of its new A320neo medium-haul jets on top of previously reported engine glitches that caused delivery delays, industry sources said on April 25.

The problems are related to the hydraulic systems and particularly an increased noise when taxiing, they said, adding that some jets are also displaying excess hydraulic temperatures, which can be a nuisance in hot climates.
