Can anyone advise when the 1.5 QG engine was uprated from 90bhp / 91lbs torque to 97bhp / 100lbs torque - was it when the body was lightly restyled in 2002 and if so would there have been some newer style cars with the old engine fitted - how can one tell?
Yeah, the uprated engine was added around 2002. To my knowledge it has variable intake cam timing vs. the older engine, thus it has slightly more power. Not sure if phase 1 (older bodystyle) Almeras got the newer engine though - or vice versa.
