Is the engine of the 2019 Outlander domestically produced?
1 Answers
The engine of the 2019 Outlander is domestically produced, not imported, and is classified as a joint-venture engine. The 2019 Outlander is equipped with two engine models: the 4J11 and the 4J12. The 4J11 engine delivers a maximum horsepower of 166 HP, a maximum power output of 122 kW at 6000 rpm, and a peak torque of 201 N·m. The 4J12 engine produces a maximum horsepower of 192 HP, a maximum power output of 141 kW at 6000 rpm, and a peak torque of 235 N·m. For daily maintenance of the 2019 Outlander's engine, the following methods are recommended: Use lubricating oil of the appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional equipment of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, choose CB_CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, ensuring the standard meets or exceeds the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will degrade over time. After a certain mileage, its performance deteriorates, potentially causing various engine issues. To prevent malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. As oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through, it may rupture the filter or activate the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass the filter and carry contaminants back to the lubrication points, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Periodically clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls. These substances mix with metal particles from component wear, forming sludge. In small amounts, the sludge remains suspended in the oil, but in larger quantities, it precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to flush the radiator. Removing rust and scale deposits not only ensures the engine operates smoothly but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
