Is the RAV4 Engine Domestic or Imported?
1 Answers
The RAV4 engine is produced by FAW Tianjin Toyota and utilizes Toyota's production technology. Therefore, this engine is domestically manufactured. The RAV4 uses two engine models: the M20D-FKS and the A25B-FXS. The M20D-FKS engine delivers a maximum horsepower of 171 hp, with a peak power output of 126 kW and a peak torque of 209 N·m. The A25B-FXS engine provides a maximum horsepower of 178 hp, with a peak power output of 131 kW and a peak torque of 221 N·m. For daily maintenance of the RAV4 engine, the following methods can be employed: Use lubricating oil of the appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD-SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional equipment in 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 lubricating oil will degrade over time. After a certain mileage, its performance deteriorates, leading to various engine issues. To prevent malfunctions, change the oil periodically based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When 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, the filter may rupture or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass the filter and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Regularly 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 mix with metal particles from component wear, forming sludge. In small amounts, sludge remains suspended in the oil, but in larger quantities, it precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, making lubrication difficult and causing wear. Periodically use a radiator cleaner to flush the radiator. Removing rust and scale deposits ensures proper engine operation and extends the lifespan of both the radiator and the engine.
