Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the CAVD engine according to the catalog is 130 kg. The engine number of the CAVD is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. This turbo engine is very demanding in terms of fuel quality and prone to detonation. Like all direct injection units, it suffers from carbon buildup on the valves. The timing chain has a modest lifespan; it is often replaced before reaching 100,000 km. Oil consumption issues are not as common here, but there are still complaints about oil consumption. The weak points of the engine include the wastegate turbine and the regularly leaking intercooler.
