Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the CKDA engine according to the catalog is 255 kg. The CKDA engine number is located at the front, at the junction of the block and the cylinder head. This is a reliable and durable diesel engine, and problems usually occur at high mileage. The Common Rail fuel system with piezo injectors does not tolerate low-quality fuel. Cost savings on lubrication significantly affects the lifespan of the turbocharger and hydraulic compensators. After 250,000 km, attention is usually required for the timing chain, which can be expensive. Weak points of this engine include the crankshaft pulley and the EGR valve.
