The weight of the CKUB engine according to the catalog is 180 kg. The CKUB engine number is located at the junction of the block and the gearbox. It is a reliable diesel engine with a decent lifespan, provided proper maintenance is carried out. The main thing is to monitor the condition of the timing belt, as valve failure usually causes it to bend. Additionally, it may be affected by a broken generator belt, causing it to skip. The BorgWarner bi-turbo system may require attention closer to 200,000 km. All other problems are related to the clogging of the particulate filter and the EGR valve.
