The weight of the JLE-4G18TD engine according to the catalog is 150 kg. The engine number JLE-4G18TD is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. This turbo unit did not become widespread and its breakdown statistics are low. In the first year of production, dealers often replaced camshaft position sensors under warranty. The turbine itself is reliable, but there have been reported cases of bypass valve failure. The catalytic converter, spark plugs, and lambda sensors do not tolerate poor fuel. It is also worth noting the shortage of some spare parts and a minimum number of donors in the used market.
