The weight of the BWS engine according to the catalog is 188 kg. The BWS engine number is located to the left of the crankshaft pulley. It is a very reliable unit with a high lifespan, but it has a rather high fuel consumption. In winter, it may have difficulty starting due to condensation freezing in the exhaust system. Like all direct injection engines, it suffers from carbon buildup on the intake valves. Sometimes there can be a sudden increase in pressure and leakage of the fuel injection pump due to regulator failure. The membrane of the crankcase ventilation system is also considered a weak point of this engine.
