The weight of the TD25 engine according to the catalog is 230 kg. The TD25 engine number is located at the junction of the block and the cylinder head. Due to a fault in the timing gear drive, the power unit tends to make noise and vibrate. The gears gradually wear out and at 200,000 km, the timing belt starts to lose its synchronization. Leaks from the pump and gasket between the gears appear around the same mileage. Only the crankshaft position and oil pressure sensors have glitches in the electrical part. Detonation caused by poor fuel destroys the bridges between the swirl chambers in the cylinder head.
