The weight of the L5-VE engine according to the catalog is 135 kg. The engine number L5-VE is located at the back, at the junction of the engine and the gearbox. This unit is considered the most reliable in its series and does not consume much oil. On forums, people complain about leaks in the heat exchanger and breakdowns of the auxiliary equipment. Another weak point of the engine is the sticking of the intake manifold valves. After 200-250 thousand km of mileage, the timing chain may stretch and require replacement. There are no hydraulic compensators and valve clearances need to be adjusted every 100,000 km.
