Kaptive audience

I bought a Hyundai i10 on 1st November 2008 and the dealer assured me it had the new Kappa engine. Is there any easy way to identify the new engine? I have seen pictures on the Net and I must say there seem to be some marked differences.

The Kappa is chain cam and the cc on your V5C will be 1,248cc. The 1.1 is belt cam and 1,086cc on the V5C.

Is it usual for a belt tensioner to go off centre and shred the belt? This was the case with our Peugeot 3008 at 28,000 miles.
Does the Audi Q5 2.0 diesel engine have a chain driven cam?
I too once had a BMW Isetta. Mine had four wheels but the back two were close together which made it very difficult to avoid the potholes in unsurfaced roads. I now own an 02 reg Honda CRV. Can you...
