The weight of the X20SE engine according to the catalog is 120 kg. The engine number X20SE is located at the junction of the block and the cylinder head. The engine is considered reliable and all its problems are related to natural wear and tear. Most Opel owners on forums complain about ignition system failures. The second most popular issue is the failure of various sensors. Hydraulic lifters may make noise due to low-quality oil on high mileage. The timing belt lasts approximately 50-60 thousand km, however, if it breaks, the valves do not bend.
