Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of t he OM605 engine according to the catalog is 215 kg. The OM605 engine number is located at the front, at the junction with the cylinder head. Increased vibrations during the engine operation negatively affect the lifespan of its supports. The timing chain does not serve for a long time and can stretch at a mileage of 200,000 km. This diesel engine is afraid of overheating, which can cause the aluminum cylinder head to simply crack. Deteriorating quick-release connectors contribute to air entrainment in the fuel system. Hydraulic lifters often fail due to the use of low-quality oil.
