Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the 46D engine according to the catalog is 175 kg. The engine number 46D is located at the base of the oil dipstick. In engines before 1999, cylinder sleeves often sagged and the crankshaft seized. Then the block was modernized and a small ridge appeared to support the sleeves. In the same year, the unreliable GEMS fuel injection system gave way to Bosch Motronic. Updated engines after 1999 often suffer from microcracks in the block walls. Many problems here are caused by finicky electrical sensors and fuel pump.
