Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the J4D engine according to the catalog is 118 kg. The engine number J4D is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. These units are primarily known for their low lifespan of the cylinder-piston group. Usually, at mileage of 150 - 200 thousand km, an overhaul is required due to oil consumption. There are no hydraulic compensators here and valve adjustment is necessary every 30,000 km. If the valve noise is ignored for a long time, the camshaft will quickly become unusable. This engine also often fails due to the failure of one or another sensor.
