Ssangyong Actyon using Benz engine?

[Ev0lutionz]

as above..........

[Jamesc]

Yes!

[Ev0lutionz]

Yes!

 

Damn cool. Borrowed my friend's one and popped the hood. Shocked to see a benz badge there. His is a RWD version.

[Blackyv]

yup.... they use benz old engine...

[Chiangauto]

The Actyon turns heads with its one of a kind coup

[Silver_blade]

The Actyon tho not really a looker..it actually was years ahead of the coup

[Babyt]

the models have been there for years....no facelift right? damm sad brand.

[Chewbacca]

....wow. Too bad it's ugly as sin. D:

[Mike1234]

Bro, yes.....

 

It is using the mercs engine.....However, its an old version engine.....( means not the best and latest engine).....

 

I give u an example:

 

Chery V5 is using Mitsubishi engine......

 

However, it is not a MIVEC engine, just some licensed engine from Mitsubishi.....

 

 

Proton ( old types of cars like Wira, Saga, Perdana, Waja, Satria Neo)

 

Also using Mitsubishi engine instead of their own Campro engine ......( Cos Campro engine wasn't developed on time yet)

[Fishman]

Which also means Benz maintenance? Wow, that would be expensive for a Korean make.

The Actyon turns heads with its one of a kind coup�-like profile and innovative styling.Powered by a 2.3L Mercedes Benz licensed engine which delivers a healthy 150bhp and 214 Nm of torque at 3,500 to 4,600rpm, the Actyon ensures you a smooth, spirited drive.The Actyon's Ultra-Rigid, triple layer steel frame, coupled with thorough noise insulation and vibration dampening, helps to provide a smoother, quieter ride while providing maximum passenger safety in the event of a collision.

 

Yes,it's Benz Eng

Hi Bengzter,

 

Congrats on your new purchase.

I thought they are selling the new 1600cc model now.

 

Do you secure a good price as their pricing is very rigid when I call up

Hello , im owning since 3 years a Ssangyong korando 2.3 l petrol engine. with automatic gearbox and aut transferbox. 

 

In the beginning it was hard to find parts here in the netherlands , because the specialist say its a reproduction of a mercedes.... 

 

But i find out ;   the petrol engine is a real mercedes engine, its exactlly the same as used in the mercedes-benz sprinter 214 1995- and the vw lt 23 .

The right engine code is; M111.984 ...

Im sure this will help you if you need parts, if you looking under these code or mercedes sprinter , you find  a lot of cheaper parts! 

These engine is also used in the other models of ssangyong, and have the same mercedes problems, like ignition coils and leads , and mfa sensor, throttle body issue s.....

 

The automatic gear box is the same as in the mercedes G klasse ,to find out the right filter number i discoverd that it was not a daewoo item but mercedes. inside the gear box you find the mercedes emblem and production marks....the same is for the engine , wich show a ot of mede in germany marks. On the flywheel you will find a plate with the mercedes origin.

Yes its true that ssangyong also reproduce engine s ,and are based on mercedes drawings.

The last series have nothing to do with mercedes. its a own design .

The korando s kj series are also produced in russia under a other name .... 

We now used this korando in bulgaria where its very rare (i like that) 

Well i  hope its clear now what is a 2.3 liter petrol engine in a ssangyong , its a mercedes engine , from a van . ..... 

 

Greetings from holland, Rene

I think this Korando is extinct in Singapore.

Last time some people bought it though...
