The weight of the QG16DE engine according to the catalog is 135 kg. The engine number QG16DE is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. Losses in traction occur due to the stretching of the timing chain, which serves for about 150,000 km. The engine speed usually fluctuates due to throttle or EGR valve contamination. The generator belt has a fairly small lifespan and can only be replaced. There are no hydraulic compensators here, so the valves require periodic adjustment. Cases of catalytic converter failure have been described, with its particles being drawn into the cylinders.
