Sunset Red 1.4 TSI(TFSI) GT Sport - daily drive & track car
rex:
Yup. But thank you! :notworthy: :drinking:
I have the pdf in English for 1.4 turbocharge & twincharge If anyone is interested...
And now the engine is in pieces... I had the cylinder heads checked and it looked like it was loosing some pressure because of the deposits on the valves.
The mechanic also found out that the timing belt was a little bit worn. I have a chain timing belt so that is pretty unusual (I only have 50k miles). The mechanic said it was not a must to change the belt but I decided to change it just to be on the safe side. Tomorrow the engine should be put back together and I will hopefully post some pictures of the operation.
All the best! :drinking:

Any possibility to fit the natrium filled valves of the Twincharger-TSI?
rex:
Basically the cylinder head should be 100% identical. So the valves on the twincharged TSI should work on my car.
Could you please give me more info on the valves? :notworthy:
the bruce:
I just remember that the Twin has natrium filled outlet valves (which the 2.0 TFSI also has).
Natrium filling improves heat conduction. So the outlet valves run cooler.
VW saved the money for the 122 HP engine because it produces less heat (refer to SSP).
There's a second SSP432 related to the small 1.4 TSI by Audi.
By the way:
Interesting that the small 1.2 TSI are just 8 Valves. :chicken:
