Maybe this is the best, most cogent explanation of engine vibration I've ever seen. He even remembered to include the inline 4's vertical shake, but he didn't mention the problem with torsional vibration in an inline straight six. Reminds me of a documentary elsewhere on KZfaq about the history of racing at Mercedes Benz. Mercedes started racing again in the 50's. Torsional vibration is usually managed by including a vibration damper at one end of the crankshaft, but Mercedes thought that if they put the power take-off in the middle of the crankshaft, then they could also shorten it and reduce torsional vibration that way, but they were wrong. In an interview with one the engineers who designed the new engine, as he chuckled, he explained how they ended up having to put vibration dampers at both ends of the crankshaft, resulting in a longer shaft than they would have had otherwise.

My Korean-built car (It has an MB 5 cylinder engine made under licence) has vacuum engine mounts that adjust themselves dependant on the engine RPM. When idling there is very little vacuum and they lift up and dampen the vibrations more. But as you rev the engine harder the vacuum in them builds and pulls them down compressing the internal springs making the mounts become stiffer as the engine movement is less of a problem. So to surmise, Low RPM, wobbly mounts with the engine sitting a few inches higher, high RPM, engine mounts pulling engine down stiffly to the chassis.

Fantastic explanation of many tricky points. The detailed breakdown of the oiling system was phenomenal and the pcv box disassembly truly demonstrates how that system can (and does fail). The explanation of the firing order and comparison to other engines is what puts the video over the top. I originally viewed the Subaru engine teardown and now I'm convinced that speedkar99 is doing something unique. The editing is the key and it makes the subject matter fly, all while allowing the audience to appreciate the detailed research and clarity of the presentation through the voiceover. Thank you very much for all the effort, many people will benefit from this video!

Great to the point video. I love these engines, hate to see that drivers let them take so much damage and discard the vehicle instead of taking care of it better. I owned two of them (B5244T5 and B5244S2) and both were running smoothly and reliable for over 300.000 km, last one still in use waiting on completing the next 300.000. The 2.4l engines are a little better to service, as the oil filter is top-down and the PCV trap is separate.
@zzoinks

Great! One issue I'm scared of is there is a PCV banjo bolt in these engines that has a metal ball inside and it has been known to unluckily break and cause the metal ball to get sucked into the engine and cause damage. They released an updated banjo bolt, but it seems like either a snapped timing/accessory belt or a broken banjo bolt can be the immediate death to the engine! Pine Hollow Auto Diagnostics made a video on the Volvo where the banjo bolt broke. (there is an updated banjo bolt that doesn't break)

Damn, this man has his ICE knowledge nailed! Impressive. I will have to disagree on the top mounted cartridge oil filter setup being more prone to messes. I find that it is a much more efficient and clean way to change a filter. The oil drains out when the engine is off, rather than pooling inside the filter like your typical steel canister style. Also, most of them come out with the cap. But for filtering I still prefer the spin-on canister type filters.

The plastic style pick up tube actually has better flow and doesn’t clog up as easily and is considered an upgrade on older engines.

The older versions of these engines use steel oil pickup tubes. Know a few people who worked for Volvo back in the day and by the time Ford had more influence they did some cost cutting (though I wager the cast saving is minimal if you factor in the price of a mold to make the plastic parts for the pick up). No extra chain to oil pump - nice Big oil channels, easy to clean, because of the bed plate construction also very easy to manufacture (no deep holes to be drilled) Bed plate construction (the upper oil pan) make the engine block really stable. I remember the bearings reside in steel inserts? 10 bolt connection to the flywheel - beefy Steel water pump impeller, probably still the original pump too. Cool to see the insides of the RNC 5 cylinder (RNC = Revised N Compact?), only seen the older ones!

I currently drive a first gen C70 coupe, with a 2.0 liter 5 cilinder "high pressure" (as Volvo call this modification) turbo. Literary cant say anything bad about it. The car itself is comfortable, and the engine... Power: plenty, and can be tuned to be even better. Fuel economy: great. Smoothness: on idle it's barely audible. Exhaust note: with rear mufler deleted, and replaced with a resonator, it's still not loud, yet gives it a nice, low grumble. In one word, awesome. And the turbo flutter... Cant get enough of it. I think i will stick with the anomaly for now, thank you. :D

Dang, lack of maintenance killed this Volvo. I have a 2004 S60R and around 220,000 miles now on it. On these, the sandwiched cylinders is only an issue on the 2.5 blocks, namely the 2.5 in the r. Under high boost, there is a chance for the cylinder wall to crack, expelling exhaust gases into the coolant system. The fix is usually either shimming the block, in the thin space between the cylinders or resleeving the block with new Darton sleeves. The head gasket can be replaced with the r/t5 one for better reliability, as they are used for the all out high HP builds. The PVC system is notorious for issues, you can use the glove test method to see if you may have an issue. These Volvo 5 cyls are only as good as the maintenance. If you are on top of it, they last forever, however if you are a slacker, it will die. You can't treat it like a Honda/ Chevy. On turbo Volvo's, the turbo isn't integrated with the manifold, so swapping is fairly easy. Also, the Volvo 5 and 6 cyl motors have many swappable with minor modifications parts, ie pistons and such. Since they are a modular design. It's common for people to take the t5 pistons and swap them into the t6 motor. The valve cover has a liquid gasket. In the end, these are absolutely fantastic motors for people willing to do the work. They, with some modifications, can be absolute monsters and fairly reliable, it's just you need to be a stickler for maintenance.

Yeah, that needed better oil management (fully synthetic, and changed on schedule) and it looked to me like it needed more long trips. Volvo designed these engines to be used; short trips will kill them if you don't go for an Italian tuneup every once in a while. They're not as tolerant of neglect as the old red blocks, but when looked after and treated well, they're just as durable.

​ @speedkar99 Was looking forward to this video ever since the subaru engine video,where you showed a sneak peak,My brother has a volvo c30 with the b522s4 engine in it that failed, started producing a lot of blowby in the crankcase causing the intake cam seal to pop off, after replacing the seal as we assumed the crankcase pressure might be because of a faulty pcv membrane,it still started pushing the cam seal and we later found this was due to scoring on one of the cylinder leading to excessive pressure in the crankcase (the cause of the scoring which i intially assumed was when the cam seal came of and he lost oil pressure, but when we tore it down, all the main bearings had no damage and everything indicated there was no drop in oil pressure as he caught the leak quick enough. I saw a small chip of metal missing from the piston crown and welded back on the side of the piston crown causing it to score deep lines in that cylinder liner,Such a weird failure mode, I realized later that,once when someone else was driving the car one of the vaccum lines on the upper intake plenum leading the a evap purge solenoid valve broke off and the engine was suddenly exposed to a massive vaccum leak on the highway, which may have caused a few detonation to remove a small sliver of material from the piston crown and weld it at the other end of the piston causing it to score the cylinder. (the theory is that fuel trims couldn't adjust quick enough to control the massive lean condition caused by the vaccum leak on the highway leading to the detonation that killed it as described, thought i would share that because that was the very first time i encountered one of this

Great vid. Was looking forward to this one. I have 6 volvos and 5 of them are older than 1998. I honestly don’t like these newer versions of the 5 cylinders. The original N version from 93-98 was the best. The oil pickup was metal like you were saying it should be, there weren’t as many oil passages because it didn’t have VVT, and the cylinder walls were a little thicker. The RN 5 cylinders that came after were ok too, but they introduced VVT, and for whatever reason, it seems like the tolerances were much tighter and therefore they were much more prone to throwing rod bearings plus the cylinder walls weren’t as thick, so the higher HP models were prone to cracked blocks. I love the original N 5 cylinders. Best reliability, durability, and longevity. I currently daily drive a 94 850 with 328k on it.

Depends on what motor you got. The older 2.4L turbo N was 83mm block as well. The later RN 2.4 T5 (not 2.4t) has 81mm bore. It’s really dependent on which bore block the motor used rather than N vs RN. the 2.3L t5 used 81mm. I would say the move from hydraulic to solid lifters for the Rn as long as mechanical tensioner was an improvement. I do agree about the rod bearings for the 04+ RN when they did a semi engine facelift for the p2 models. The cylinder heads for the RN have more flow than N head. Even more than a stage 1 ported N head. Ups and downs of both. But we can both agree the RNC is just a mess in comparison 🤣 . (The one in the video)

The GM Atlas family of inlines includes a 5 cylinder. The inline 6 spent 4 years on Ward's best engines list. Great HP and torque, extremely smooth. Like the engine in this video, and every other engine made today, clean oil is the key. A lack of proper maintenance is the reason for almost all engine failures below very high mileage. People are just generally stupid about not changing their oil when they are supposed to. I think BMW is an exception to that, as they have built in failure points, such as their cam chain adjusters. Also cam failure on the 5.7 Hemi is way too early. My old Chevy Stovebolt 6 may be the most forgiving engine ever made, LOL.
