Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the AJ126 engine according to the catalog is 190 kg. The serial number of the AJ126 engine is located on the cylinder block. The timing chain system has a relatively short lifespan, usually ranging from 100,000 to 150,000 km. The damper bushing in the supercharger drive tends to fail quite quickly. The water pump also doesn't last long, and the plastic coolant tee frequently cracks. The engine does not tolerate low-quality fuel, and the throttle body and injectors often need to be cleaned. The remaining issues are related to oil leaks from the valve covers and seals.
