Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the L67 engine assembly is 204 kg. The engine number L67 is located at the junction of the block and the transmission. First of all, it should be noted that there are two generations of these motors: Series I and Series II. The first generation engines are known for their low lifespan of the compressor bearings. Other weak points include oil ring seals and balancing bearings. Second generation engines have a highly unsuccessful plastic intake manifold. The gasket under this manifold often tends to leak, causing coolant to mix with oil. Both generations of engines are also prone to overheating, which can lead to cylinder head cracking.
