Complete ignition replacement on 1.6 MPI (BSE) engines found in Audi A3, Seat Altea, Cordoba, Ibiza, Leon and Toledo; Volkswagen Caddy, Golf, Jetta, Passat, Polo and Touran and Skoda Octavia 2.
NOTE: For spark plugs and coil pack it is not strictly necessary to remove the air intake.
My problems were:
- Sometimes at full throttle the check engine light would come on with the ASR light off, the check engine light would go out after a few seconds.
- The error codes in the ECU were all misfire codes (P0300, P0301, P0302) and once I got P1212 (cylinder shutdown bank 1).
- After restarting the engine, the ASR OFF also disappears.
- The colder it was outside, the worse the problem and vice versa.
Since I did't feel like investigating much, I decided to just replace the whole ignition, as going one by one (spark plugs, leads, ignition module) is pretty painful with the intake in the way.
Turns out the spark plugs were shot and there was corrosion on both the leads and the ignition module terminals on the cylinders that were misfiring. So the problems were compounded. After replacing the ignition, the engine ran better than it had in years. Not only did the big problems go away, the engine just feels much more responsive at lower revs and is quieter too.
Tools required:
- Just basic hand tools with 16mm spark plug socket
- Only speciality was XZN M8 socket ("triple square", commonly confused with TORX), see www.amazon.de/s?k=xzn+m8
Parts used:
- Ignition module HITACHI 138425 (Made in Germany)
- Ignition cables BorgWarner (BERU) ZEF1224 (Made in France)
- Spark plugs: DENSO IK20TT (Made in Japan) - you don't need to get expensive Iridium one, though
- Elring and Gates seals for the air intake
Total just under 160 EUR

At 6:22 when you reinstalling the secondary air pump, there is a small slot that holds the dip stick tube in place. Make sure to put it back in its place, otherwise it will be kinda loose. :D

On 180000km I already did this whole procedure twice. Also I got a middle oil consumption - 1 liter per 4000km. Also replaced all silentblocks twice- thanks to our roads. Such kind of adventures moving my mind to sell the car ;)

@carsandtools Жыл бұрын

I understand. A liter per 4000 km is A LOT. Luckily I have started changing the oil often and quite early, so my 1.6 MPI is one of the very few that doesn't burn oil like crazy. But I have definitely heard about worse ones, where depending on the driving style the engine would burn as much as 1 liter per 1000 km. That engine is basically getting a continuous oil change...

Thank you for a very good workflow. What difference do you think is between Denso IK20TT and K20TT (power, stamina)? and why did you not ordered the original ignition module? It is commonly available..

@carsandtools 3 ай бұрын

I think the "I" ones are Iridium and many people have reported they lasted them significantly longer than regular plugs, but I have not had such luck as seen at 8:32... I've got them again, though, because without taking the air intake off its such a painful job and I don't want to do spark plugs again for as long as possible. Whether that was smart or not... well, I guess it doesn't really matter now. :D As far as the OEM ignition module, nice catch - I did not really notice it was also still available. :D But the Hitachi is also a good one. I tried to buy all the parts from renowned aftermarket brands. If I went for the cheapest everything, it would be a lot cheaper, too. But I intend to drive the car to the dust, so... :D

What have your plugs looked like when you took them out? I think I have an oil ring problem on cyl4 since the plug is getting black and after sometime causes a misfire.

@@carsandtools 147k and it burns a lot of oil during winter and long drive. I also experience misfire couple times. First one i change coil pack cables and spark plugs. After a year it happen again, change coil pack and spark plugs, but still misfire. The culprit is the cable. And it happen again for the third time, same problem the shortest cable. Luckily i keep my old cables.

Letting air out of the fuel line. I think. I don't know, to be honest, I just saw air valve at the end of the fuel rail so I assumed that's what it for. 😅

Is it mandatory that both the ignition coil and ignition module should be changed? Isn’t the coil itself enough?

@carsandtools Жыл бұрын

Of course it's not mandatory, just change what's bad (if you can tell in advance what the culprit is). In my case I didn't know exactly what was bad and decided to change everything since the air intake had to come off (and I really didn't want to do that more than once). Turned out I had corrosion on both the leads (9:57) and the coil pack (8:27), so it worked out for me. :D

@gheorghinacov6008 Жыл бұрын

@@carsandtools Great then! I changed the spark plugs, cables and ignition coil but not the module sitting on the ignition coil. I really cannot tell if the idle improved since, that’s why I was asking. I have the exact same engine. I would assume you have no gas smell on the back, right?

@carsandtools Жыл бұрын

@@gheorghinacov6008 Oh ok, I didn't even know they could be separated, I always saw them as a whole thing. What do you mean by "gas smell on the back"? My main problem was misfiring under full throttle and insane slow crawling (the colder it was, the worse it got, too). I would put it in first gear, slowly release the clutch, give it a little gas and nothing would happen. Then, after 1-3 seconds, the something suddenly woke up and gave as much throttle as if I had put the pedal to the metal. This was going on for second or third winter and always stopped in the spring. Only this winter it came back with misfires and check engine lights, so I finally had to do something about it. :D As I found out, 1) there was corrosion on 2 of the leads as well as on the connectors on the coil pack, 2) the spark plug electrodes were completely burnt out so the gap was way bigger than it was supposed to be (8:46). Rough or uneven idle could also be caused by cracks and subsequent air leaks anywhere on the air pipes, air intake or seals, but most commonly (at least from what I saw online - for instance at www.seatcupra.net/forums/threads/1-6-bse-engine-rough-idle-solved.456352/ ) was caused by damaged seals. Have you checked for that?

@gheorghinacov6008 Жыл бұрын

@@carsandtools By that I meant there is a sharp gasoline smell coming from the exhaust. I did pass the annual technical inspection but you just cannot run the engine inside of a closed garage. The smoke isn’t visible though. Now if you mention air leaks I do hear something whistling around the throttle body but I cannot tell if that’s how air whistles while goes through a tight opening of the valve.

What a horrible and tedious job to do 😦 what always strikes me, is why Audi engines have to be so complex compares to VW ones. They come from the same factory basically. There is no reason for the intake manifold to be that complex.
