Believe Roma, this gasket, in my case, was the MAIN reason for the oil consumption!
And in the fact that it is found not only in engines of the GA series, you are absolutely right!

Thank you again, Seryoga, - mutually!

And where did you find the expression “such a thing” in that post of mine? Or was it about me?

Can you point your finger? viewtopic.php? f = 18 & t = 13692 & start = 10

These are all lyrics, and most importantly - that my advice helped :)
They say I bring good luck. so take it while sharing 🙂

As far as I know, this small gasket is the problem due to which, in the description of Almer, you always hear “eating butter”. In Russia, this problem has long been gone, tk. they know about this gasket.

The Nissan ga16de engine is a striking representative of the popular line from the manufacturer Nissan, because it is this unit that has earned the trust of many motorists. An extensive, widespread line of engines has taken a leading position in the automotive market, as a result of which it has confirmed not only the quality, but also the efficiency of work.

ATTENTION! Tired of paying fines from cameras? A simple and reliable, and most importantly 100% legal, way has been found not to receive more “letters of happiness”. Read more"

The units were manufactured by Yokohama Plant, a well-known Japanese company. When developing the GA 15 DE line, back in 1987, 1.6 liter versions of engines were produced in parallel, the main difference of which was an increase in the diameter of all cylinders, and in particular from 73.6 to 76 mm. The GA 16 DE units already had the new 9.5 compression pistons.

This motor is the first "bulky" version, the full production of which began in 1990. Carbureted engines from the GA 16 series were installed on European cars, and the vehicles of the Japanese manufacturer had GA 16 DE engines, which were distinguished by the presence of an electronic fuel injection system. A similar "division" of engines continued until the end of 1995, after which European cars were equipped with electronic fuel injection. Thus, since 1995, the GA 16 DE has been installed on all vehicles with certain characteristics. The power of the cars could be different, ranged from 102 - 110 horsepower. The production of units continued until the end of 2011.

Engines have proven themselves excellently for several years, because they are not demanding on fuel, as well as oil. Moreover, Nissan thought everything out so correctly that even the operation of the unit is unpretentious.

For an example of characteristics, it is worth considering all the data in a special table:

The design of the engines, regardless of their power and other indicators, does not differ: the cast-iron block has an aluminum head, as well as 2 timing chains.

The resource of the motor, depending on the operation, may be different. Although the units are unpretentious, when using low-quality fuel or oil, its resource is reduced to a total mileage of 300 thousand kilometers. With the right approach to the operation of the facility, its resource is 500 and more thousand kilometers. For proper operation, it is necessary to adjust the valve clearances every 50 thousand mileage, change the oil, candles, and filters in a timely manner.

Usually, the timing chain (there are two of them) will not disturb the driver until the run is about 250 thousand, but then replacing the chains is simply necessary.

The Nissan ga16de engine has its own identifying number, which can be seen on the engine itself from the side where the radiator is located.

As noted, the ga16de models feature larger bore sizes and new types of pistons.But these are not all the advantages of the units, which maximize the period of operation, as well as reliability.

• Timing chain drive, which is characterized by a resource of at least 200,000 kilometers
• Multipoint injection
• Lack of gas distribution phase control systems

Many motorists, as well as those who are going to purchase a car with a ga16de engine, are interested in the maintainability of the product, because not only comfort, but also the economic side of the issue depends on this. Judging by the reviews, we can say that in the Nissan Almera (previous years of production) there were problems with contamination of the air flow sensor (dmrv). Similar problematic situations have arisen with contamination of the regulator that controls idle. Repair of this nature is simple, you can rinse the elements yourself.

The throttle valve is also subject to contamination. In situations where the camera is very dirty, the unit can automatically go into emergency mode, as a result of which the car does not start and does not move.

1. Incorrect, irregular flushing of the system that is injecting
2. Changing the oil later than the recommended time
3. Motor operation for a long period of time in severe conditions
4. Long service intervals
5. Inoperability of the lambda will reduce power and also increase fuel consumption

If you operate the vehicle for a long time and "give" it high loads, such a moment can overheat the engine, resulting in damage to the cylinder head.

• Smoke comes out of the exhaust pipe, which has an unpleasant odor, as well as rich white smoke
• It is noticeable that the motor troit even when idling
• Smoked, damp candles
• Increased amount of oil in the crankcase

If such phenomena have been noticed, you must immediately contact the specialists, since you will not be able to eliminate them with your own hands.
