The weight of the X30XE engine according to the catalog is 190 kg. The engine number X30XE is located at the junction of the block with the gearbox. This engine does not tolerate frost and has problems starting at low temperatures. The lubricant constantly leaks from under the valve cover and fills the spark plug wells. The oil cooler often leaks, causing the lubricant to enter the cooling system. Due to the low position of the oil pan, any damage to it can cause blockage. Pay attention to the condition of the timing belt, its lifespan is 60,000 km, and if it breaks, the valves will be bent.
