The weight of the LH7 engine according to the catalog is 160 kg. The LH7 engine number is located at the junction of the engine block and cylinder head. It is a modern diesel engine with particulate and SCR filters, as well as urea injection. Therefore, the engine's lifespan depends on the quality of maintenance and fuel used. The weak point of the engine is the low lifespan of the timing chain, sometimes less than 100,000 km. Since the chain is located on the flywheel side, replacement is quite complex and expensive. The remaining complaints are related to lubrication leaks or failures during soot burning.
