According to the CAAC engine catalog, the weight of the engine is 165 kg. The CAAC engine number is located at the front where it meets the gearbox. Common Rail piezo injectors cannot tolerate poor diesel fuel, so it is better not to use just any type of fuel. On T5 forums, increased oil consumption is often discussed. The drive belt can break and cause interference with the timing belt, leading to engine overhaul. Sometimes, due to contamination, the turbocharger geometry may get stuck, resulting in under or overboost. On high mileage vehicles, the DPF (diesel particulate filter) and EGR valve can cause many issues.
