⚙️ Engines — what to expect
VW EA211 1.4 TSI — EA211_1.4TSI
Known issues
- Belt every 210,000 km. Much more reliable than the old EA111 chain tensioner. This is planned maintenance. (~350–600 € repair)
- Cars with ACT (Active Cylinder Management) may have a slight rattle when switching between 2 and 4 cylinders. Usually software update helps. (~0–200 € repair)
VW EA211 EVO 1.5 TSI — EA211_1.5TSI
Known issues
- Uses timing belt, not chain. Must be replaced every 120,000 km or 5 years — budget for this. Not a defect, just planned maintenance. (~400–650 € repair)
- Some owners report slight hesitation when pulling away from standstill. Software update improves this. (~0–100 € repair)
Skoda/VW/SEAT EA211 1.6 MPI (CWVA) — EA211_1.6MPI_SKODA
Known issues
- Belt-driven engine — timing belt must be replaced every 90,000 km or 5 years. Failure destroys engine (interference design). Budget for belt + water pump replacement. (~250–500 € repair)
- CWVA 1.6 MPI had TSB for piston ring coking causing oil consumption on early production (2014-2016). VW revised rings. Check oil level regularly on early cars. (~100–2 000 € repair)
