The weight of the FA20D engine according to the catalog is 160 kg. The engine number FA20D is located at the junction of the block with the gearbox. Initially, these units had a vibration issue at low revs, but it was fixed with a firmware update. Then there were complaints about defective parts: bearings, gears, and sensors. There was a recall to replace faulty valve springs on FA20 and FB20 engines. Non-original oil quickly damages the Dual AVCS phase regulators. Keep an eye on the lubrication level in the system, as bearing failures occur frequently here.
