Approximately 168 hp to 257 hp, depending on engine variant.
Torque Range:
Approximately 170 lb-ft to 258 lb-ft, depending on engine variant.
Fuel Delivery:
Multi-point fuel injection (MPI) for naturally aspirated engines, sequential multi-port fuel injection (SFI) for turbocharged engines.
Fuel Type:
Unleaded gasoline.
ECM Type:
Bosch Motronic or similar engine control module (ECM).
Oil Change Interval:
Typically every 7,500-10,000 miles (12,000-16,000 km) or 12 months, whichever comes first, depending on driving conditions and oil type used.
Timing Belt Replacement:
For naturally aspirated 5-cylinder engines (B5244), timing belt replacement is typically recommended every 105,000 miles (170,000 km) or 7 years. Turbocharged models might have slightly different intervals or chain-driven systems depending on exact engine variant.
