Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the Hyundai G8AB engine is 223 kg (with attachments). It is a reliable and durable unit, but its fuel consumption is quite high. Catalytic converters do not tolerate poor gasoline and can fail as early as 100,000 km. Pay attention to the condition of the timing belt, as its breakage is usually fatal for the engine. However, the main problem with this engine is the almost complete lack of spare parts.
