today we teardown the bottom end of a 2.0t TSI engine. We remove and inspect pistons, crank shaft, balance shafts, and oil pump. We look at reasons for Audi and VW oil pressure lights coming on. We also look at why Audi has issues with oil consumption on 2.0t TSI engines, but VW didn't have the same issues.

The top-end of this engine is a nightmare, but damn, that bottom end looks bulletproof. I like the block-stiffening brace, and that main caps are cross-bolted, much like a Chevy LS V8. So technically, it's a 4-bolt main! No wonder modders are getting +600HP out of these blocks without much issue. However that water pump belt looks like a PITA to change. Reminds me of beater brush belt off a vacuum cleaner. Leave it to the Germans to overly-complicate things... Great video as always Charles! Cheers!

@FourRingsAuto 5 лет назад

They changed a lot of things. Bore spacing is now 0.5mm less at 3mm between cylinders. The exhaust manifold is now built into the cylinder head so the turbo is bolted straight to the head - for faster emissions control and reduced turbo lag. Also they changed to a twin scroll turbo for reducing lag. They now have FSI direct injection and MPI port injection, and the high pressure system now operates up to around 200bar up from 150bar (from memory). There is also variable valve timing on the inlet and exhaust camshafts now rather than just the intake. The thermostat is electronically controlled now.

I never cared much for learning about or learning to fix a car until I got my VW. I enjoy the experience of learning internal car systems and learning how to fix them. Every manufacturer is different with their own identified issues. Now I have the beginning of chain stretch with 4.81 degrees on obdeleven channel 93. So looking to FCPeuro for a complete chain kit for $575 plus $1K for labor. But I still like learning.

Checked the Cambridge and screen came out. (I was told that Audi did a service bulletin to take screens out since they will cause issues and its ok to have them out) Reused it without screen. 2) Reassembled and flushed with new oil and then replaced with more fresh oil. Still getting low oil pressure. 3) Removed oil pan and no grime or dirt or shavings found. 4) Removed oil pump and found a little piece of silicone and some small pieces of plastic but again no major blockage. Oil pump looks to be in great condition. Anyway to check to see or know when an oil pump is going bad?

Thanks for these videos! Been watching and learning a ton from them! My son bought a 2014 Jetta 1.8L Turbo (I guess this is the MK6 - :) still learning here). He got a CEL a month ago and took it into a local VW dealer. They said timing chain, tensioner, can shafts (2 of them), and a spool valve needed to be replaced. The repairs was $4k+. After getting the car back, it now has beeping oil light. After doing spending $4k+ and still having issues, I decided to try and figure things out myself. I did an oil pressure test and pressure is really. When engine is warmed up, oil light comes on when idle, goes away around 2000-2500 rpms. I’ve replaced both oil pressure sensor switches, did oil/lifter. Dropped pan to inspect pickup tube and pan. Didn’t see anything unusual. Cleaned them both out. Put it back together, same issue. I took the oil pump out thanks for this video (was able yo see how it comes off). I don’t know what to check for after disassembling the pump. I have one on order. During all this, I found a coolant leak in the radiator and have that on order as well. My question to you - while I have the pan/pump out, is there anything I can check while I am waiting for the parts to arrive? Could I check the rod caps/inspect bearings with the engine in the car? With the oil pan dropped, I can see some of the caps. If it makes it easier, I can share some pics. My email is pgamboa@yahoo.com Trying to be a good dad and help my son out figure this issue out and not spend more $ with the dealer.

@zubair786007 2 года назад

Replace both Intake and exhaust balance shaft. Also, Replace Cambridge. This should resolve the issue. change the oil too often in these engine, every 3k miles.

@C63-AMG 4 года назад

hi Charles you doing good work for us as upcoming engineers and I appreciate, I have a q5 with the same engine that broke its intake manifold at cylinder 4, car had a terrible misfire customer brought it up and I changed the manifold with another same one fitted fine but still there was a misfire at that cylinder, so yesterday I took off the cylinder head and I had one bent intake valve, went down deeper to inspect the pistons and they look great according to me, though everyone at the shop told me to have them changed because they are a common problem in TSI's, but mine look great. please advise me, only problem I found myself was the valve which prolly bent from a piece of the broken manifold. plus I cant find the pistons locally in Kenya. please get back to me when you see this.

@christophervankleeck9273 2 года назад

Your videos are really helpful. Clear speaking, good clear video. One question I have, is what methods to use when attempting to remove a seized balance shaft, particularly the intake side, when the engine is still in the car and the water pump sprocket bolt can't be removed?

@@HumbleMechanic thank youu! I love these engine teardown videos, they're always really informative. One thing I would possibly suggest is to have a little note at the bottom of the screen that describes that part you took out so that inexperienced viewers have a better time following along. Some things that seem basic to you may go over some inexperienced viewers' heads, so little notes at the bottom that say "the water pump circulates coolant throughout the engine to keep temperatures low; vw and audi water pumps have been know to leak coolant onto the timing belt, causing premature failure" or something like that would help tremendously in my opinion. I would be happy to make an animation for you that briefly shows notes like that in your videos, although this is just an idea and these teardowns are already great :)

How about an RS4 V8? I pulled mine apart over Xmas to rebuild it and filmed the process. Just need to upload it to my channel. Not sure if there's enough interest though and how long to make the videos. Maybe episodes/ series?

timing tensioner aside, i was thinking the bottom ends of these might be okayish till you got the balance shaft quirks.. just nope. these things are a little too... finnicky, for me to consider them long term viable.

@stevenfarley6909 5 лет назад

I work on these engines all the time. I have heard about the balance shaft issues but I have never seen it. I have seen the guides on the shafts chain break and cause crazy vibs but I never saw the balance shafts causing an oil pressure issue. Was that a still in warranty problem or a high mileage issue?

@McDiezel-iu9sv 5 лет назад

So many small bits of plastic stuff everywhere. Engines have really become mechanicly unfriendly the last 20 years. And there engines had a service interval of about 20000 km (12500 miles) and I don't think it was annually either. It is every other year and 20000 km today. That is way too much with all these small filters and part that needs good oil pressure. Nice vid @Humble, I really enjoyed it!

Thank you for the video on the 2.0T engine, I had a piston failure on mine and had to put in a new block, my question is it ok to leave out the oil strainer screens on the balance shafts and on the servo hub that goes on the cams, the engine kit came with a new servo hub that has the oil screen already installed. Many Audi mechanics have said to remove the screen out of the servo hub before installing it because the screen will let go at about 80,000 miles and create a blockage taking out the cam bearings.

what do you think about removing the balancing shafts? [one fellow youtuber did this on his focus to gain a lil more hp]

@HumbleMechanic 5 лет назад

In this engine, not worth it. I did a balance shaft delete on a TDI. The extra vibration was annoying. LOL Not horrible, but not awesome

@FourRingsAuto 5 лет назад

Plus you'd have do something on the inlet balance shaft to drive the water pump still. I agree not worth the hassle.

Hi HumbleMechanic great video, I noticed on a lot of Euro centric autos as well as KTM/Husky using Torx fasteners. Is there a particular reason over not using traditional metric allen heads and/or metric hex head bolts?

@Jan_Seidel 5 лет назад

In fact on TSI and TFSI engines is the cause for high oil consumption totally undersized oil swiping rings on the pistons. They have half the size the normally would have. Reason was the pity full attempt to reduce friction to gain more horsepower. Downside was the the oil bores clogg up and oil gets into the chamber and burned. So when rebuilding: get the channel for the oil swipe ring to a normal size, resize the oil bores in the channel and put normal swipe ring into the engine. It makes no sense to keep the original setup as tests have shown that we talk about less then 2-3 hp due to less friction. And you can expect to due all the fun stuff again somewhere between 50.000 and 100.000 miles as the swipe ring cloggs up again

@whirltech8031 Год назад

11:00 I've also heard of the o-rings on that plastic insert losing their elasticity and allowing oil to bypass back to the pan, causing oil pressure issues. If you're high-mileage, probably a good idea to replace the o-ring or whole assembly.
