The weight of the B5-DE engine according to the catalog is 129.3 kg. The engine number B5-DE is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. This simple and reliable engine doesn't cause many problems for its owners. Judging by the number of discussions on the forum, the ignition system is the most common failure here. Hydraulic compensators do not tolerate cheap oil and can start knocking even before reaching 100,000 km. The timing belt is designed for approximately 60,000 km, but it does not bend in case of a valve breakage. On very serious issues, excessive oil consumption due to ring deposits is often encountered.
