The engine was installed on:
- SsangYong Tivoli 1 (XK) since 2015.
Disadvantages of the SsangYong G16DF engine
- Distributed injection and a low degree of forcing hint at a high resource;
- Timing design has been completely overhauled and shouldn’t be a problem now;
- Interested in the reliability of the new variable displacement oil pump;
- A single module of a thermostat, pump and oil filter is very expensive.
