The weight of the TD27T engine according to the catalog is 245 kg. The TD27T engine number is located at the junction of the block and the cylinder head. On the plus side, we can mention its huge lifespan, but on the negative side, it has noisy operation and vibrations. Around 250,000 km, the timing phases get out of sync due to wear of the timing gears. Leaks in the gasket between the timing gears or the pump usually occur at around the same mileage. The engine's electrical system is very reliable, with only the oil pressure sensor being frequently replaced. Detonation sooner or later leads to cracks in the partitions between the combustion chambers.
