Engine Overview and Common Failures

The weight of the K15B engine assembly is 85kg. The K15B engine number is located at the front, where it meets the gearbox. It is still too early to judge the problems of an engine whose production has just begun. Despite having distributed fuel injection, engines of this series do not tolerate poor-quality fuel. Some foreign owners have complained online about oil consumption from the first kilometers. Cases of timing chain stretching have also been recorded at a mileage of 100-150 thousand km. There are no hydraulic compensators, and to adjust the valves, it is necessary to remove the camshaft.
