The weight of the A24XE engine according to the catalog is 140 kg. The engine number A24XE is located on the oil filter housing. The main problem here is the timing chain drive with unpredictable lifespan. If you replace the chain, the front cover will also be added to the list of parts. The unstable operation of the engine is often caused by failures in the operation of the phase regulators. Some owners complain about increased oil consumption from the first kilometers. Be sure to use a torque wrench, as the engine metal is very soft.
