Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the V4U engine according to the catalog is 185 kg. The engine number V4U is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. This unit does not tolerate bad fuel and operation with faulty spark plugs, which quickly leads to the destruction of catalysts and the cylinders of the engine are scratched by their fragments. It also often squeezes out paper gaskets of oil channels under the front cover. It does not have a long service life for the timing chain, and it is often replaced at 200,000 km mileage. The engine is also very sensitive to overheating, and the water pump does not last very long here.
