Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the 3C-TE engine according to the catalog is 190 kg. The engine number of the 3C-TE is located at the junction of the block and the cylinder head. Owners often complain about the cracking of the cylinder head due to overheating. Another problem with the cylinder head of these engines is the valve seat failure. Additionally, the air filter hoses often crack here and dust enters the cylinders. The turbocharger and timing belt have a low lifespan, and if a valve is bent, it can lead to engine damage. The electronically controlled Denso fuel injection pump is rarely repaired in our area.
