Engine Overview and Common Failures
The weight of the B5202S engine according to the catalog is 165 kg. The engine number B5202S is located at the junction of the block and the cylinder head. This version of the engine is very reliable, as it does not have an electronic throttle or a variable valve timing system. The most well-known issue is excessive oil consumption due to a clogged crankcase ventilation. The timing belt may not reach the recommended 120,000 km, and a valve failure can cause engine damage. Components of the ignition system and fuel injectors often require attention. Weak points of the engine also include the upper support, thermostat, water pump, and fuel pump.
