Engine Overview and Common Failures

The engine weight of the B5254T according to the catalog is 180 kg. The engine number is located at the junction of the block and the cylinder head. This engine does not have a phase regulator or an electronic throttle, which makes it very reliable. On forums, the most common topic of discussion is oil consumption due to crankcase ventilation contamination. After 200,000 km, the usual cause of oil consumption is turbine shaft wear. The timing belt should be replaced every 90,000 km according to the regulations, and if it breaks, it always bends the valves. Additionally, the engine mounts, water pump, thermostat, and fuel pump do not last very long here.
