Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the M47 engine according to the catalog is 172 kg. The engine number M47 is located in the area of the oil filter. Some versions of the diesel are equipped with intake valves that may fall into the cylinders. A common engine failure is the destruction of the crankshaft pulley at 100,000 km. Prolonged overheating of the power unit often leads to the failure of the ECU. The fuel system here is reliable, but it requires high-quality oil. The use of cheap lubricant leads to oil starvation and crankshaft failure.
