2004-2006 SsangYong Musso review
Appealing to the more economy-conscious, the 120ps 2.9-liter inline-5 inter-cooled turbo Diesel delivers superb performance with 25.5 kgm of torque. The inline five is installed at a 15 degree slant to minimize lateral pressure and friction while improving power and fuel economy. All engines feature Mercedes Benz's unique precombustion technology that helps extract maximum energy from each fuel droplet while preventing knocking and ensuring quieter operation. As engines age, valve gap tolerance begin to grow leading to noisy valve clatter and deteriorating performance. HLAs incorporate an ingenious design that automatically narrow valve gaps and maintain tolerance at factory specifications. All major components such as the cooling fan, air conditioning compressor, power steering pump, water pump and alternator are driven by a single poly V-belt that has 6 grooves on its surface. The belt is pulled taut by an automatic tension control system that reduces maintenance requirements. To ensure accurate fuel delivery, the fuel injection timing control system is driven by a double chain that connects with the injection pump, engine crankshaft and overhead camshaft. A hydraulic auto-tensioner adjusts chain tension to prevent any potential error.Model Range:
