"Here is the intake manifold, it's made of plastic." Alarm bells, alarm bells, alarm bells

I really enjoyed this in depth look at the 1.4 engine. Ralph S. does a great job. I learned a lot. Thanks for posting this informative video!

For those who're curious to know, this video is from 2008 (as mentioned in the part 2 video).

Audi engineers... let's install the combine the cam cover and cam bearing housing, to make sure the consumer pay for a new set of cams and a cam cover!!

My Jetta 2016 1.4 tsi with 35k miles is doing great in the gas averaging 45 miles x gallon. I got the car used for about 10 thousands dollars in January 2019 the car was a lease before i got it, The over engineering of this engine has pros n cons, Pros gas mileage, turbo engine is more powerful vs compacts cars in the segment, construction is tight no squeaks, sporty driving dynamics. The cons even changing the air filter is a pain in the ass, and when maintenance problems arise could be a money pit but remember buy used with low miles after all the initial cost of the car was cheap

26:17 “this one matches” that’s why the tool was held in place lol

The combustion engine has evolved a lot over the last 100 years, and is much more efficient and refined these days. It is also a lot more complicated. It makes the relative simplicity of an induction AC motor much more attractive as a source of drive. The limitation being the high voltage traction battery technology, which now needs the focus of research and development.

do you keep this guy in a box ,because he said he never heard about a timing chain being stretched .and the chain is life time guaranteed this in a parallel univers but not here not now

Do you have more video service training. Ilyas tv. 2008 Toyota yaris .1.5l .

Will Audi replace the timing chain on my son's A3 or will they rip him off.

hello, after hitting the valves on the camshaft, did the lobes shift?

BS change one of those today and the intake side jumped 3 teeth, (crap tensioner)had to replace whole set. And already did 12 this year alone

Very nice!

Will the T10171A be available after Brexit

Yeah, great job by Ralph Schmidt. We must make sure the engineers get credit. They are the heart and soul of the design.m (i'm not related to Rick Reid of the adjacent comment, just coincidence :-)). Question: what changed from 1.4 TSI to 1.4 FTSI ?

I had no idea the 1.4 TSI is this old. It’s a relatively new engine in the US market. But I think it’s the newer version with aluminum block.

Hi My car (1.4 tsi golf mk5 66000 miles) is showing error p3008. Initially the error code p000A appeared. I changed camshaft sensor then code p3008 came up. Most of the people are saying that timing chain needs to replace. It was fine , I just changed water pump because it was leaking, and new drive belts, with engine oil service , dsg service & spark plugs. After all this work when I started my car a code p000A appeared, then changed camshaft sensor, camshaft adjuster valve, after 5 minutes a new code p3008 came up, car starts but idle rough. When press acceleration it vibrates very heavily. What do you think might be the problem?

Very very good

Bloody good info from ze German's 👌🏼

What year is the engine from

Hi, I have an Audi Q3 Sportback 2020 model with the 1.4T TFSI Engine. Is this the same sort of engine as this? If so, I’m not sure how reliable it will be.

i had to replace timing chain (whole set) , ignition coil packs (second time so far), internal leaking high pressure fuel pump and clean carbon build up from intake valves because of misfires, and decreased power. @ 62k miles / 100k km. Soon i will have to change water coolant pump because of the squeaky compressors electromagnetic cluch pulley... A fail engine with serious design flaws and low quality parts. Endless money pits...

I need part 2 please

Is this the same 1.4 engine as the 2019 jetta?

How can i see the original video with german language please , because i understand german better than english

This needed a Eurotrash style English dubbing

I have this motor sinc 2012. I've changed 3 chain and 5 tensioner. Worst motor I've owned 😶👍

JA FRITZ, DAS IST GUT MOTOR, JA, JA ... Lügen wieder erzählen? Next time incorporate the sprocket with the crankshaft, it will be even more expensive and will shorten the engine's lifespan to 50.000k so you can sell more "cheap" "Volksautos" with chains stretching which can't even meet the normal BELT lifespan. Also, super expensive parts, super complicated service- like you couldn't make it even more difficult and expensive? WHY DO YOU EVEN BOTHER WITH CHAINS??? I CAN'T UNDERSTAND. BELT IS MUCH FASTER TO CHANGE AND MUCH CHEAPER!! Personally, I wouldn't risk but Citroen claims their belt service should be carried on every 180.000-240.000 km !!! Again WHY WOULD YOU BOTHER WITH CHAINS THAT CAN NOT EVEN LAST 60.000km or in many cases less??? Shuldigung Fritz, I forgot to mention OIL CONSUMPTION- I believe TSI and TFSI engines consume more oil over 1000km than Trabant.

4:31 Plastic wtf why using plastic, whats wrong with metals, this engine is not made to run for year and many kilometers

In other words stay away from these engines 😂😂

It's a real shame that Audi have designed a valve train drive system with defective tensioner and cheap and nasty components that results in failure after as little as 30 000 km. The world is full of failed cam chain tensioners in the vw audi seat range. The days of German reliability has clearly gone. Come on Audi....dont let the accountants rule design and stop sub contracting manufacture of plastic rubbish in China

Tsi

The guy in the suit has no clue what the expert is talking about.

Cos'è il solito motore di merda?

The CAXA engine is maybe one of the VW group's worst engines. Expect to do a timing chain and tensioner replacement as soon as 50 000 km.

Probably one of the weakest poorly designed engines ever made.

Shitty engine, bad timing chain design, eats oil, fuel consumption is high.
