Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the EXA engine assembly is 275 kg. The EXA engine number can be found on the cylinder block. First of all, this diesel engine is quite rare, it was installed for three years on the Grand Cherokee and that's it. Secondly, each cylinder has a separate cylinder head and they often crack. Thirdly, these cylinder heads need to be periodically tightened, otherwise oil leaks may occur. The turbocharger has a low service life, often pushing oil at around 100,000 km. Many owners also complain about loud noise, vibrations, and a shortage of spare parts.
