2.0 L · inline-4 · turbocharged · diesel · 2010–present
Also known as: gw4d20, 2.0 diesel gwm, gw4d20m, wingle diesel, 2.0 turbo diesel haval, gw4d20d, 4d20, gw4d24
Great Wall's 2.0-litre common-rail diesel — the engine of the Wingle pickup, the Poer and the earlier diesel Haval models, and one of the more numerous Chinese diesels in export markets across Africa, South America and Central Asia.
It was developed with Bosch supplying the injection system, which is the practically useful fact: the high-pressure pump, injectors and their fault codes are conventional Bosch common-rail hardware, so generic diagnosis of the fuel system applies directly even where vehicle-specific documentation does not exist.
The vehicles it sits in do genuine work, and the failures follow duty rather than age — injector wear where fuel quality is poor, the variable-geometry turbocharger sticking with carbon, and EGR blockage on low-speed work. Where an owner's manual and a dealer network are hard to reach, the generic corpus and community write-ups carry more of the diagnostic load than they do on a European equivalent, which is the reason this engine has a page at all.

Information, not instruction
CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.
Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:
- The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
- What you measured, not only what you replaced.
- What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
