Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the ECH engine assembly is 145 kg. The ECH engine number is located on the cylinder block. This is a rare engine that was only installed in the sport versions of the Neon model. The most common problems here are related to the cooling system: hoses and thermostat cracking. Therefore, the most frequent breakdown is overheating with head gasket failure and warping of the cylinder head. Oil leaks from seals or excessive oil consumption often occur at high mileage. The timing belt lifespan is approximately 100,000 km, and in case of a valve failure, it usually bends.
