Engine Construction Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Suzuki Kizashi. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The engine is a water-cooled, in-line 4 cylinder, 4-stroke-cycle gasoline unit with a DOHC valve mechanism arranged in a "V" type valve configuration and has 16 valves (4 valves/one cylinder). The intake camshaft equipped with a VVT actuator and the exhaust camshaft are mounted over the cylinder head and are driven by a crankshaft with a silent-type timing chain. In addition, balancer shafts are combined with the oil pump located under the lower crankcase and driven by another silent chain.
