Question from the reader:
« Dear Blog author, now sold his car and select a new one, very much, but she has two engines, one without a turbine (I don't really want, because weak) and the TSI engine (powerful, but with a turbine). There are many different opinions. Tell me, and reliable tSI engines And is it worth taking it? Thanks in advance, Gaidar»
Good day, the question is interesting, I already wrote. However, today is locally about this model ...
The reliability of the usual atmospheric engine will be higher than the turbine is an axiom. Therefore, if you want to ride a long time and not to look at "additional" problems, take the usual option. However, you will drive like a "vegetable" (locally about Skoda Rapid), all because the power of the usual unit - 102 hp Little! If we consider that classmates, such as, for example, Hyundai Solaris. - Power of about 120 hp. (if you do not consider AVEO), and the difference in 20 hp Significant! That wants our people not to be "outcast" in the stream and looks at TSI.
About turbine
It should be noted that the engines that are supplied to this version of the car have a volume of 1.4 liters (power of 90 kW, which corresponds to about 122 hp, well, can a little more). However, this motor has variations in 140, and in 180 hp, it seems to be the same, but the power is much more. If you calculate the variations of such an engine, their already - 10! You can distinguish them by power, the simplest 122 hp, the average - 140, the most powerful 180 hp
So what I want to tell - not all turbines are the same, they differ very critical. If you extend:
1) on weak models (up to 122) is one turbocharger, model - TD02
2) On powerful models (more than 122) - Eaton TVs turbocharger Superior KKK K03, that is, double supervising, which avoids the turbo pit!
How it becomes clear - powerful models are harder, so they have more to break. But the "weak" models, "simpler", so reliability is slightly higher.
If you take a simple option (as in our case), then the reliability of its turbine at a high level is subject to all operational norms (oil replacement, fuel, etc.) This turbine runs 150-200,000 kilometers. And even poor-quality fuel immediately will not "kill" it, 70 - 90,000 leaving. If you live in a small town, then the mileage will have about 15 - 20,000 per year, it means even with the worst combination of events ( bad fuel), ride 3 to 4 years, freely. I have a friend who has been driving with such an aggregate for 7 years and everything is fine. Wow, with a turbine dealt with, go on.
Building and inside
What to say the reliability of the block itself and internal parts is no doubt at a high level, with the exception of one node. Let's in order.
Consists (simplified scheme) :
1) cast iron cylinder block
2) and "rods"
3) Aluminum, 16 valve head block with two shafts and hydraulic system system with phase inspection on the inlet shaft.
4) System direct injection.
5) Systems distribution system - chain.
As you see the TSI itself, a standard reliable unit. But it has one "weak link", which spoils the whole picture, especially in powerful versions (from 140 and higher) is a timing chain.
Here it is "unemployed" and is designed for the entire service life. However, as practice has shown, it is pulled out after 50 - 70,000 on "powerful" versions, and after 100 - 120,000 on weaker. After it happened - noise in the engine appears, a strong crackle seems to be a diesel (it is impossible to confuse it with anything), it can also jump on one thing - two levels, then you will not start the engine at all.
Now Volkswagen engineers are "fighting" over solving the problem, the resource has slightly increased. From 2014 since 2014, even powerful versions run 150,000, but the fact remains a fact - the chain is now stretched. Again, you will be enough for a long time if you drive 15,000 per year, then almost 10 years old.
About oil and fuel
What to say reliability TSI directly depends on what you have in it! Do not save on oil, buy only engine desired synthetic oils. Also these aggregates, have a small "appetite", spend gradually oil - this is normal, per 10000 km, consumption can reach 0.5 - 1 liter (tribute for the turbine). Gasoline is required not less than 95, it is not necessary to buy on 92, then the consumption will decrease and the resource will increase a little. Place on proven gas stations (do not leave "Surogat") - although it concerns all cars.
About vibration and warming
Many owners are 1,4 TSI in the cold period of time, notice - "Trojections" or vibration. But after everything is warming up. Guys are not a breakdown, it is such a principle of work. It is worth noting that these aggregates are warming up longer than ordinary "atmospheric" it is also normal, all turbocharged units have "cold blood".
Finally
Despite all the few sores of this model, it is one of the most reliable turbocharged engines, as the manufacturer itself assures, with proper and calm operation, you can ride 150,000 km, without looking into it, then change the chain, we look at it (repair - change the turbine) and more At least 150,000.
The old EA111 model gathered a lot of awards and recognition, since 2014, the release of the EA211 model was launched, according to the manufacturer, the engine resource was much increased.
So if you thought to take a new Rapid with TSI, then there is most likely the "second generation", take not be afraid.
VW Golf Highline Bluemotion 1.4 TSI. Price: 1 767 600 r. For sale (with a new engine): Since February 2016
The result of this test for me consists of two well-pronounced components - technical and operational with a philosophical color. I'll start with the first. Engine 1.4 TSI with a capacity of 125 liters. With. who, at first glance, differs from its predecessor only marking and nothing special is in reality absolutely new. Aluminum cylinder block, not cast iron. Lose weight and all drowsing of the turbomotor. As a result, the engine dropped more than 20 kg. Forgive me for the details, but as a motorist was difficult to pass by the "delicious" design solutions. The exhaust manifold, for example, and the head of the cylinder block is a monoblock with a personal cooling circuit. With a cold start, firstly, speeds up the output of the neutralizer to the working mode (which, frankly, does not care much), and secondly, and this is the main thing - the time of heating the cabin during the cold season (!). And further. In mode full power Such a layout allows you to reduce the temperature of the exhaust gases, increasing the resource of the turbocharger. According to the cooling association, the turbine has remembered that during the test of the VW Golf Bluemotion test, when the temperature beyond the board (let's call it), the car has become the mark of 30 degrees, the car began to cool the salon with such a diligence that no tricks could save me from the dwarf stream of ice air. As a result, a marked shoulder and all subsequent pleasures for a month and a half. I do not know, perhaps, out of a thousand versions of the slope of the salon and was safe, but my qualifications did not have enough for its discovery.
But let's go from the theory to practice and from the general to the private. Let's start by S. real expenditure. On the site of the route from Moscow to the border with Belarus (about 500 km), under the fear of the dismissal chamber (average speed of 89 km / h), the consumption of VW Golf 1.4 TSI - 5.7 l / 100 km. In Belarus on an ideal track with a constant (real) speed of 115 km / h -6.6 l / 100 km. In Poland on the autobahn at a speed of 150 km / h (actually 140 restriction, but everyone rushes 150 or more) - 7.6 l / 100 km. In Germany (a lot of repaired sections) - 6.8 l / 100 km. In France, by paid highways (a limitation of 130 km / h) - 6.6 l / 100 km. 3200 km drive through European towns - about 7.0 l / 100 km. If you calculate the average value of the flow rate of VW Golf 1.4 TSI throughout the test for 10 thousand with kilometers gas, then it turns out 7.4 l / 100 km. The earned educated reader will look at all previous numbers and says that somehow it does not work. I agree. But I have not yet indicated consumption in Moscow. And he is 9.3 l / 100 km, and believe me, no disconnected cylinders will help here! After all, if an early early morning (hours in 5), I easily get from the house to work for 35-40 minutes, then the day and three hours may not be enough. And here is how you guess, not in the car.
Geography navigation can be boldly to put the top five, but for the pronunciation of the name in French - solid count!
Finally, my surprise. The first time I was surprised, seeing the price VW Golf Bluemotion - 1,767,600 rubles. Much will be too much, I thought. The second time mentally uttered this phrase, seeing the complete set. There was everything and a little more, except the already described system of disconnecting two cylinders, and this is also with a plus sign! At first, I decided that it was just the so-called democar, where everything is, including absolutely useless systems for us. For example, a car holding system in a busy row or automatic switching Lights from far towards close and vice versa. And then I realized: no one is a democar, but an ordinary alien who accidentally brought to us from the future (perhaps far). Therefore, by the time such cars with their capabilities will become a real need for Russians, the ruble strengthens two times and the price will become very real and massively affordable. But for this we must become Europe.

Verdict
Comfortable. Especially in cities with dense traffic. Little suitable for operation as a role family car For long journeys. By the price / quality ratio in its segment one of the leaders. But since this is a kind of democar, adequately evaluate real car Difficult.
Engine 1.4 TSI / TFSI Series EA111 Debuted in the spring of 2006. The 140-strong option fell under the hood Volkswagen Golf V. The modern motor with direct injection and four valves on the cylinder quickly conquered the hearts of the jury of the "Engine" competition. Since then, the power unit has collected leading awards every year in various nominations. But no prestigious titles guarantee reliability, as unexpectedly for themselves, with sprinkle and annoyance, tens of thousands of customers around the world have learned.
2010 brought long-awaited modernization. The timing tensioner was improved, and instead of the chain, the timing belt was installed. In 2013, a motor version equipped with a COD system (Cylinder-on-Demand) system was released, which during the movement without load disconnects two cylinders, which reduces fuel consumption.
Engine 1.4 TSI / TFSI has 8 modifications with a capacity from 122 to 185 hp. Weak versions (122 and 125 hp) were equipped with a turbocharger, and strong (from 140 hp) also mechanical compressor. The last combination allowed to solve the problem of "turbump" (failure and lack of thrust on low revolutions). AT casual exploitation The advantages of Motors 1.4 TSI / TFSI rated not only drivers who prefer good dynamics. Engines demonstrated good fuel efficiency (about 7-8 l / 100 km). This motor is very widely used in model row concern Volkswagen.: Volkswagen Polo., Skoda Fabia., Tiguan, Octavia and Seat Alhambra.
Problems and malfunctions
As the infamous 2.0 TDI with pump-nozzles, and 1.4 TSI / TFSI did not differ in exemplary reliability. Unfortunately, "children's diseases" strongly spoiled a brand reputation and undermined customer confidence. The most numerous charges received a defective tensioner chain chain and a premature Tensive Timing Chain. Mostly suffered from 140 and 170 hp engines. The cost of repair is about 300 dollars. Also refused the system of changing the phases of gas distribution (300-500 dollars) - a characteristic "diesel" noise appeared.
Nevertheless, this is nothing compared to the destructive rings and pistons. The cost of such a repair is already colossal. Mechanics believe that problems with piston are associated with embossed fuelcausing devastating detonation.
Among other defects, it is worth noting the frequent problems with POMPE (about 300 dollars) and with an injection system (a set of about 300 dollars). In the first case - slipping electromagnetic clutch Pulley with overclocking between 2500 and 3500 rpm. In the second case, there are problems with the launch, and error messages appear.
The least problematic turned out to be modifications without a compressor - with a capacity of 122-125 hp.
Should I buy cars with 1.4 TSI / TFSI?
Cars with 1.4 TSI / TFSI, collected until 2010, may turn out to be a risky choice. But not all of them must bring problems. It all depends on previous owner and operating conditions. Engine inspection is desirable to entrust an experienced specialist. Chances of encountering serious malfunctions in younger cars (since 2010) are small. Therefore, it is necessary to focus on searching for copies with upgraded engines. Although they are more expensive, but in the future they will overcome your money, time and nerves.
D AUNSAIZING (from English downsizing - "Reduction of size") began in the twentieth century, and this term introduced exactly Volkswagen. Moreover, it was about the lineup of 1.8-liter engines with a superpatch and 20-valve GBC.
It was assumed that a relatively compact block 1,800 will replace the motor line up to three liters volume, which is essentially happening. Now the volume of 1.8 liters is no longer considered small. In many ways, this is the merit of the Motor family of EA113 and this is 1,800 specifically.
Moreover, the late motors of the engines with this block of cylinders and the GBC had a volume of two liters, which seems to be a downsayz, but the concept is connected not only with the working volume, but also with dimensions. Here, due to the most thin walls of the cylinders and the long-time design, it was possible to accommodate a similar volume in the dimensions of 1.6 liters of the middle of the two thousand years. Do not be surprised by comparing the AWT blocks from the VW Passat and some x 16xel from Opel: there will be almost a complete coincidence in the dimensions there. Of course, the mass is not very different.
On the picture: Volkswagen Passat. 2.0 FSI Sedan (B6) "2005-10
But it is precisely by the beginning of the new century, the compactness of the design has become much more an important characteristicthan before. Why? Just because the growing requirements for the volume of the machine salons while maintaining external dimensions And the increase in the average power in compact passengers required the use of all the smallest but powerful motors.
The experience of the EA113 line was successful: despite the complex design of the GBC, the presence of turbocharging and forcing under 200 forces Motors 1,800 calmly kept their 300 thousand or more. Inspired by success, Volkswagen went further.
Continuation of success
Based on the block of motors with a volume of up to 1.4 liters, a new series of 1.2 and 1.4 liters of EA11 series presented (do not look for simple logic in numbering). Motor power was 105-180 hp The base for new engines was atmospheric models of AUA / AUB with a volume of 1.4 liters, made using a new modular location scheme hinged aggregates and with chain drive timing. Motors received the designation of TFSI / TSI, as they were equipped with a direct fuel injection and superimposed. Especially note that there is no difference between fuel systems TFSI and TSI No, these are just two marketing names of the same for audi models And Volkswagen.
On the picture: Volkswagen Golf. 5-door "2008-12
It turned out a large family of engines, of which the most famous are 1.4 liters of Caxa (122 hp), 1.2 liters of CBZB (105 hp), a little weaker CBZA on 85 hp, 130-strong 1.4 CFBA, two-trunk 140/150-strong BMY / CAVF, the infamous 160-strong versions of Cavd and the most powerful Cave / CThe with hot hatchie at 180 hp
Motors 1.2 liters of this line are very different from 1.4 liters. They have another eight-glove GBC and a slightly different block, another piston group, and there are no high-known options.
Mostly speech in this material will go about the motors of 1.4 liters. They have a unified design and similar shortcomings.
Design features
The design of the engines at first glance is as simple as possible, but there are a number of interesting solutions. Pig-iron block, aluminum 16-valve GBC - as in tens of other structures. But the GDM chain drive is made with a separate chain casing, which is more characteristic of belt engines and makes it easier to maintain it.
Full opening temperature thermostat
block cylinders
105 degrees
The timing of timber roller rockers pushers and hydrocomathers. The crankshaft position sensor is built into the rear flange of the engine. The boost system is made with an atypical liquid intercooler for most supervised engines, and the cooling system is with two main circuits, a super-air cooling circuit and an electric pump for additional cooling of the turbine.
The thermostat is a two-piece and two-stage, providing different temperatures of the cylinder block and cylinder and more smooth temperature adjustment. The thermostat of the cylinder block has a complete discovery temperature of 105 degrees, and the thermostat of the GBC is 87.
The control system is usually used by Bosch, the TNLD is the same, but in some embodiments, the Hitachi high pressure pump is installed. Two-chapted version with the ROOTS compressor - the present miracle of technology, and in the end little Engine It turned out so much additional equipment and such a difficult inlet that he was heavier two-liter engines TSI.
For such a small motor, unusual to see the oilball cooling of the pistons and the floating piston finger, but everything is serious and designed for high power.
Carter ventilation is elegant and simple: there is an embedded oil separator built into the front cover and the maximum simple system with a constant pressure valve that the phenomenon is rare for the turbo vote.
The clean air supply system is also provided for crankcase ventilation, which theoretically allows oil to retain its properties for a long time and provides large intersavice intervals. The oil pump is in the crankcase and is provided with a separate chain, such a design allows you to reduce the time of oil starvation at the first and cold start, loss of tightness of the oil hilt valve or lowering the oil level.
The duocentric system adjustable pressure pump reduces the loss of power on the lubricant and apply low-viscosity oils yearly. It provides pressure of 3.5 bars in a wide range of operating conditions. Oil pressure sensor is located in the future of the oven after hydrocompensators and reacts well to any pressure drop. Of course, there are also phaserators. At least - on the inlet shaft.
In the photo: Volkswagen Tiguan "2008-11 Elegant design Even with superficial analysis has many vulnerable points and should work "on the verge". And even without taking into account the characteristics of the system direct injection Fuel with its ripples, sensors and distributive drive eccentrics. But the bulk of claims, oddly enough, belongs to the basic elements of the design, which are not expecting a trick.
Something went wrong?
If you think that such a turbocharged motor as 1.4 EA111 with high power has a very small resource piston group And the turbine consumility, then you are right only in part. In fact, the natural wear of the piston group is small, and the turbines after the elimination of problems with the electronic bypass and the sealing drive of Wastgate are able to pass their 120-200 thousand kilometers. Fortunately, it is quite "resort".
In the photo: under the hood Volkswagen Golf GTI "2011 The main reason for the discontent of the owners throughout the term of use of these motors was predictable and simple. The timing chain drive could not provide a stable resource, and the design features allowed the chain with a slight wear of the crankshaft on the lower star. In addition to this, in general, a banal reason was still one: the chain drive of the oil pump also could not stand it, the chain rushed, or she swashed.
In an attempt to eliminate annoying troubles, the company changed the tensioner three times, replaced the chain and stars to more small-grained, changed the design of the front cover of the engine, and eventually replaced the roller chain of the oil pump on the plate, at the same time changing the drive ratio to increase the operating pressure. The latest version of the tensioner is 03c 109 507 BA, it is recommended to change it anyway. The wear of the calm is usually insignificant, but they are inexpensive.
Timing sets There are two types: 03C 198 229 B and 03C 198 229 C. The first set is used for motor-roller pump roller chain, motors with CAX 001000 numbers to CAX 011199, the second option - for upgraded, with CAX 011200 numbers. If you want at the same time Improve the oil pump drive and use a newer version of the kit, then you need to replace the worker of the oil pump, its drive chain and tensioner. Details codes 03C 115 121 J, 03C 115 225 A and 03C 109 507 AD, respectively. When ordering details, it is necessary to be very attentive, some of the parts of the kit may be incompatible among themselves.
The resource of the first chain options before replacement was sometimes less than 60 thousand kilometers. After replacing the tensioner to a more resistant and setting less drawing chains, the average resource was about 120-150 thousand before the appearance of unpleasant chain stacks on the lid.
Another chain resource added the revealed trouble with check valve 03f103 156A, which too quickly descended the oil from the pressure line back to the Carter, which led to long work Timing without pressure. In the inhabitants of warm regions who ignore hazardous tapping, the chains are quite successful and more than 250 thousand, but there is a nuance: after the appearance of the first tapping at a cold start, a sign of a weaker tensioner, the probability of a chain's slippery begins to grow. And the lower the temperature and how longer motor It turns out on working turns, the probability is higher. At the same time, during the care of the phases, the thrust deteriorates and the fuel consumption is growing, so it's not so cheap risk. In addition, 100-120 thousand runs are an exemplary resource of the latest modifications of the latest modifications in urban environments and on original oil. Early options began to knock after 60-70 thousand mileage. So still the motor must be opened, and an amazing way the resource of the components chain drive associated with the resource of the phase student, which is not officially consumable.
An error in the 93rd group is not always manifested, so that the electronic "diagnostics" fans need to be alert anyway. But for the services, this nuance was just a golden bottom, because in this case it is possible to eliminate unnecessary sounds ...
The timing chain and noise, as the most common problems, are leading in the list of troubles for 1.4 TSI motors. Each owner of such a car faces with them. As with the "Masedor", which over time necessarily appears. But the oil appetite also has a reverse side.
The system is arranged in such a way that the oil appetite and all related problems are not only inevitable, so in the absence of any actions from the owner of the car, they enhance each other. And this leads to a rapid increase in negative factors. The final chord is usually either cracks in the piston due to detonation, especially in all versions of the engine more powerful than 122 forces, or the path of the piston due to excess oil and the occurrence of piston rings.
What to do?
Most of the material read before this place logically made the conclusion "do not need to be". That in general is not deprived of meaning. But if you have already contacted such a motor on a used machine, do not rush to urgently get rid of it. You can live with EA111, just this motor age need only an integrated approach to diagnosis and recovery. You can't finish the timing. "Rezoka", which includes most owners modern carsThe engine will surely arise completely and irrevocably due to the death of the cylindrophone group. AT best case Osolizing valves, detonation and errors will lead the car to a good service. And after a thorough repair, the engine will rejoice again and economy. Unless, of course, the power system does not fail.
The motor was repeatedly upgraded, and quite a lot of performance options. In general, until 2010, the design of the piston group was distinguished by an unsuccessful oiling ring, and before 2012 piston rings Also were thin and quickly wear out. And only at the end of the release of the series Motors appeared, which are practically not subject to rings and a number of accompanying problems. Then they began to put the crankcase ventilation kits on a slightly higher operating pressure. It turned out that the efficiency of the oil separator strongly depends on the vacuum, and that the reducing motor was higher than the planned. This in turn led to an increased oil tool through the ventilation of the crankcase.
In the photo: under the hood Volkswagen Golf R 3-door "2009-13 The direct injection fuel apparatus makes its nuances in the process of aging motor. Like any high operating pressure system, it is rather capric. And the price of components that are almost not repaired, high. In addition to the expected substitutions of the nozzles and the pump, you can also change the notched pressure sensors of the fuel ramp assembly with the ramp, a bunch of tubes and gaskets. But for now, let it be costly, but the most "understandable" part of the problems with the engine. In addition, it is relatively not bad diagnosed with experienced masters.
To take or not take a car with such a motor? If the car B. good condition And with guaranteed slight mileage, then why not? Especially if you move a lot and low flow Fuel will be a pleasant incentive. And, of course, if you are not afraid of one-time investments in the amount of 30-50 thousand rubles after purchase. This is the price of a good diagnosis with the replacement of the timing to a new version, and in the way you can reveal all the accumulated problems and eliminate them.
Closer to 200 thousand mileage money will need again. Most likely, the repair of fuel equipment and the supervision system will be needed. As a result, the chances reach up to 300 thousand runs and more - there is, although there will be much more difficulties on the way than in the case of some simple "atmospheric" from the 90s with twice as high fuel consumption. But unsuitable for repair is an explicit exaggeration.
In the photo: Volkswagen Golf 5-Door "2008-12 In general, the motor was really originally unsuccessful, demanding of the service, and only in recent iterations got rid of annoying childhood diseases. But this is the inevitable consequence of the global trend on the run of technology by buyers. In this regard, the EA111 experimental series is not the first and far from the last. Your voice
In 2007, engineers of German automotive company Volkswagen. On the basis of the Hatchback Volkswagen Golf, a fundamentally new car was designed - VW Tiguan. Thanks to the impeccable reputation of the progenitor, the SUV in a short period of time won universal recognition. True, according to the results of 2014, Tiguan lost two first positions on the pedestal of popularity to their competitors Honda CR-V And Toyota RAV4. Already in 2015, the manufacturer announces the start of the production of the second generation of the SUV. The exclusive novelty was able to breed the market segment.
Today the car is collected not only in Germany, but also in Russia, in the city of Kaluga. German company increased its power potential on domestic car market, thereby heated additional interest in the SUV russian buyer. Before purchasing an expensive car, it is advisable not only to get acquainted with its operational properties, but also by the indicators of reliability and durability. Next, we define what is the actual engine resource on Volkswagen Tiguan 1.4, 2.0.
A variety of motor line
Volkswagen Tiguan motor gamma represents turbocharged power units with a working volume of 1.4 and 2.0 liters. Engine 1.4 TSI with a capacity of 122 and 150 hp Also installed on. Gasoline engines are excellent beautiful technical characteristics and a large enough resource. As practice shows, power plants from the VW Tiguan line are capable of passing 300 or more than thousands of km. Motor 2.0 TSI is made of a cast iron block of cylinders and an aluminum head.
There are several of its modifications that differ in its nominal capacity - 170 and 200 horse power. Also the buyer is available to choose a diesel equivalent. Cardinal structural differences between engines do not detect. The difference lies in the fact that the 170-strong version is functioning due to the BorgWarner KO3 turbine, and KO4 is installed on a more powerful analogue.
Some construction features Motors VW Tiguan:
- Degree of compression 10.5;
- Number of valves - 16;
- The presence of a DOHC / belt;
- Ecological class corresponding to the norms of Euro-5.
The first generation of "Tiguan" was equipped with a 6-speed hydromechanical machine, and the subsequent generation had acquired a 7-speed DSG robot. The transmission of the SUV is known not only to high-quality assembly, but also silent work. At the stage of overclocking the car, engine operation is muted, and on the cruise velocity only noise published by tires.
How many "walks" the engine on Volkswagen Tiguan
In order to understand what the actual motor resource on Volkswagen Tiguan, it is necessary to figure out more in more detail. constructive features. The bulk of the owners of modification with a 1.4-liter motor complains to the designs of the designers in the strength of the piston group. In particular, the piston itself, which due to excessive loads and high temperatures fails prematurely. The first problems with this constructive element power aggregate May occur at the turn of 100 thousand km. Also at this stage, it is advisable to follow the state of the timing chain. Turbodiesel 2.0 TDI instead of the chain has a belt. Over the state of the TRV drive must be monitored in the most thorough way. The breakdown of this element leads to unpleasant consequences - the valve bent. As you know, repair and maintenance of German SUVs - the pleasure is not cheap.
When passing the first 150,000 km observed increased flow Oils - It is necessary to replace the oil-changing rings or valves. Diesel 2.0-liter engines won in terms of actual resource from gasoline analogs. But it is worth saying that problems with the pump in some cases cannot be avoided. The reason for this becomes fuel low quality. Professionals recommend constantly follow the status of the pusher fuel pumpIt is best to carry out a comprehensive diagnostics after every 20-30 thousand km.
Total Next: 1.4-liter petrol motor able to pass about 300 thousand kilometers of the path, provided that regular maintenance. Diesel analog to the first overhaul There are over 350,000 km.
Review of owners about the resource of the power unit
Both turbomotors are qualitative and reliable, differ in high speed characteristics, but extremely demanding on the quality of fuel refilling and motor oilSensitive to the coolant. For all three components, it is necessary to closely, otherwise they will have to be invested in expensive repair of the car. We now turn directly to the reviews. vOLKSWAGEN Owners Tiguan, experienced by determining the duration of the freight work of the main power unit of the car.
Engine 1.4.
- Mikhail, Voronezh. It remained unhappy with the acquisition of a representative of the German car industry with a 1.4-liter engine. The motor does not cope at all with his tasks, Volkswagen Golf with the same engine was several times in beyrea. Plus to everything dubious build quality and a very funny resource. I have Tiguan 2010 and for all this time in repair invested the amount of the equivalent cost of the car. From constant detonations on the pistons break the edges under the rings. Very demanding on the quality of the fuel car.
- Maxim, Yalta. The SUV as a whole was satisfied, but there is one big but. 1.4 TSI engine frankly speaking too weak and unreliable. For such a Mahina, a minimum is needed 1.6 liters and not 150 hp In the morning the car has to start as our AvtoVAZ. I refuel at LUKOIL AI-95, as recommended by the manufacturer. The chain is simply terrible, flew, without passing 80 thousand km. The engine is constantly gluch on traffic lights, at any time he could start tall. In general, I sold this car and began to sleep well.
- Stanislav, Vladivostok. I go to Volkswagen Tiguan since 2009. When 110 thousand miles came up to the mark, problems with chain began. I quickly replaced, no longer had no breakdown. For the year behind the wheel of an SUV - only positive impressions. Those who love to put pressure on the gay from the start, this car is definitely not suitable. With such a mass and power, the circuit flies at times.
- Egor, Moscow. Driving from 2015. Screw during this time 70 thousand km. Guarantees changed the thermostat, and the crack was formed in intake manifold. With the launch during the frost there are no problems, the suspension of the highest level. Motor resource 1.4 TSI is too dependent on the quality of gasoline. Any unsuccessful refueling can turn into trouble. Too late I was opened by the mystery - the aluminum unit and the plasma spraying "live" with our combustible 100 thousand km.
Power unit volume of 1.4 liters of good in its characteristics. However, it is too dependent on the quality of fuel refilling, maintenance of maintenance and many other external factors. Not the most successful development of German engineers, which is confirmed by the reviews of the former and current owners of Volkswagen Tiguan 1.4.
Engine 2.0
- Nikolai. Urengoy. Since 2008, exploiting the German SUV with diesel engine. When passed, 170,000 km decided to replace the timing belt with rollers and pomp. Now the car starts even better even at -30. On the notes of drivers: diesel win in terms of resource at a gasoline analogue under the same operating conditions and equal working volume.
- Sergei. Moscow. During the choice of VW Tiguan paid much attention Engine quality. After reviewing a large amount of information, it came to the conclusion that the 2.0-liter motor resource is significantly higher, which is less voluminous analogs. In practice, everything was confirmed - the chain for the first 200 thousand km does not submit any signals. The main thing is to refuel on proven gas stations and use certified oil.
- Alexey, St. Petersburg. I have a car 2017, diesel 2.0. Before buying, communicated with competent people on the reliability of Tiguan's motors. People said the chain resource is about 300 thousand km, that is, almost to the first capitals. The turbine passes even more, done all at a high level. Much depends on the quality of the consumables themselves and planned service Auto.
- Matvey. Cheboksary. Ask the experienced owner of VW Tiguan, which modification of reliable, it will answer you - two-liter. I myself personally saw the car past more than 300 thousand. The resource depends on the driving style, the first 200 thousand km in general pass without any problems with adequate driving.
Many car owners agreed in a single opinion that the 2-liter power point It is more reliable and resistant to unfavorable operating conditions. Numerous studies also confirm the fact that in practice the Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 engine resource is more than 300 thousand kilometers.
