Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the A14NET engine according to the catalog is 130 kg. The engine number A14NET is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. Engines from the early years of production suffered from piston destruction due to detonation. Additionally, oil consumption may occur up to 100,000 km due to stuck rings. The crankcase ventilation system is quite temperamental and causes a lot of problems. The pump and upper guide of the timing chain are not known for their longevity. Turbine failures or cracking of the intake manifold at low mileage are less common, but still occur.
