Where is the Besturn T55 engine produced?
2 Answers
The Besturn T55 engine is developed by FAW Car Co., Ltd. under China FAW Group Corporation and is a domestically produced engine. The engine model of the Besturn T55 is CA4GB15TD-30, with a maximum power of 124 kW, a maximum torque of 258 N·m, and a maximum horsepower of 169. For daily maintenance of the Besturn T55 engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of the appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices in the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be chosen according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the requirements specified by the manufacturer. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, its performance deteriorates, which can cause various problems for the engine. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine holes of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through the filter element, it may burst the filter element or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the relief valve, carrying 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, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. In small amounts, it remains suspended in the oil; in large amounts, it precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates properly but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
As a car enthusiast, I've been driving the Bestune T55 for a while now. Its engine is indeed made in China, produced by FAW Group at their factory in Changchun, Jilin. As a domestic brand, Bestune uses its self-developed 1.5T turbocharged engine, which delivers smooth power output and is fuel-efficient. I find the acceleration quite smooth when driving on highways. Although some people have doubts about domestic engines, my actual driving experience shows good reliability with few malfunctions. FAW is an established company with upgraded production processes, ensuring quality. When I bought the car, I researched and found that this engine incorporates global technical standards, has good cost control, and is easy to maintain, making it suitable for drivers like me who seek value for money. Domestic products are improving rapidly and worth trying.
