Volkswagen 1.2TSI Presentation

[@zaccy12341]

We have a Vw polo comfortline with this tsi engine, it is a great engine and works very well with the dsg gear box, at 100kph it only is reving at about 1900 rpms in 7th gear

[@dragospahontu]

Is it efficient?

[@fortimusprime]

@@dragospahontu I guess it depends on what you mean by efficient. It has high MPGs so that's fuel efficient.

[@thodkats]

As said in the video,they tried their best to minimize power losses from friction...more valves = more friction...this is not a performance engine..it's a combination of low emission and high economy engine,but with enough horsepower and torque to match a 1.6 or even a 1.8 engine...Imo that's the genius of all TSi engines.. !

[@xXturbo86Xx]

Every single thing said in this video is 100% true.It's every bit as good as they claim. It's by far the best engine i've used in many years. Make yourself a favour and consider using this wonderfull engine with a 7spd DSG gearbox. It's amazing. Not for the fuel economy (It's the same as with a 6spd manual). But for the SOUND! I chose the 6spd manual because i love manual transmitions but a friend got the DSG,and i'm so jealous.With a sports exhaust sounds like a high end sportscar! Crazy!

[@hatstand40]

Have this in my Fabia. Brilliant engine

[@enterteentv7197]

Except the shocks and traffic driving

[@phil7791]

These are actualy pretty nippy. Had a spin in one today and it was quite surprising how quickly it could gain pace. Could live with one for the daily commute alright.

[@WJ52TLX]

this sounds like its a really good engine the best of both worlds power & good fuel economy

[@xXturbo86Xx]

actualy the 105hp engine code is CJZA. the current old 1.2 tsi 105 engines are the EA113. coded as CBZB

[@kraklakvakve]

@pa3op89nbg The black thing is a spin-on oil filter with a check valve (to prevent oil spillage when unscrewed).

[@Dan_B]

I am really impressed with my Fabia 1.2 TSI. Averaging 45mpg, picks up speed like a 1.6 and can top out at 120mph (yes I took it up there 😂)

[@dragospahontu]

Is it reliable?

[@fortimusprime]

@@dragospahontu I can't speak for the 1.2 TSI, but I can for the 2.0 TSI. Over 10 years and it has been very reliable! Only had to replace an ignition coil, and replaced the water pump with a metal one because the plastic one leaked.

[@Skopa-x2r]

I did 199 km/h in my 1.2 tsi Skoda Fabia 90cv from 2017 😉

[@WJ52TLX]

@sangolt88 yeah it should be . This TSi range of engines are great i really want a Fabia with 1.2 TSI engine in it power and low fuel consumption

[@kraklakvakve]

@pa3op89nbg The white box is probably the oil cooler (oil is cooled before passing through the filter).

[@oldmanfromyork]

Just ordered a polo with the 1.2 TSI engine. hoping for more low down thrust than the old 1.4 16v lump delivered.

[@WJ52TLX]

@sangolt88 the 1.2 Tsi has 77kw or 105bhp not 177kw

[@thandermax]

What about carbon built up on valve & cam head ? TSI is notorious for that issue

[@crisp2882]

@WJ52TLX it stands for turbocharge stratisfied injection.i hope it makes sense.

[@lordoftheriffs79]

@Sebastian7224 actually, 20v engines are not better than 16v(5v per cylinder vs 4v), the 20v was used years ago in the audis and vw's but abandoned to 16v designs now available

[@demk.818]

All Volkswagen TSI 1-4 turbo intercooler petrol engines and all TSI 1-4 turbo intercooler petrol engines hybrid : Easy damage, 20-100 l/100km, over 100 l/100km with F1 speed and test maximum over 20,000 rpm. From VW databases all End report.

[@thodkats]

Btw i 'd also like to point out that TSI stands for Twincharged Stratified Injection..That means both a turbocharged and a supercharger is used..While this applies to the 1.4litre (140-160ps) it doesnt apply to this 1.2l engine nor to the 1.8 20VT..That's all just marketing from VW,but it's hard times we live in,so i guess they used the "TSi" name for their own benefit...

[@ritdhar6579]

TSI meand Turbocharged Stratified injection as well.

[@tombanic4902]

Just got me Audi A1 with the same engine. So far an excellent little city car, with great fuel consumption. Mind you with chain driven engine the oil HAS TO BE CHANGED more frequently than what VW is suggesting with those "so called long life oil" It is a myth that the oil could last up to 15000 km. That is very bad for the chain. If you maintain more frequently on 7500 km that engine would last for a long mileage. The chain driven engine should make over 200000km before the chain is replaced. Never save your money on the oil.

[@AfXv237]

I change my oil on my 320d e46 each 22000km and still runs strong at 260k kms without any engine problems. You are just eatting VW's crap. Those TSI are badly designed and the timing chain tends to break or to loosen and the piston would hit the valves.

[@iamtheoneandonly9361]

Mr Crossplane Why compare this engine to a BMW diesel engine? They are two different things entirely. This engine probably won't last for hundreds of thousands of miles but that's not what it's designed for.

[@iamtheoneandonly9361]

For Christ sake people this is a small turbo charged chain driven petrol engine, stop comparing it to the VW pd diesel engine and others. I have this engine in my Skoda Rapid and for what it does it's pretty good at it - the performance and fuel economy are pretty decent and after 29000 miles I've had no issues yet. As a small turbo charged engine it will need some maintenance but no more or less than any other engine needs. If you neglect any engine you will have problems with it - simple as that. There are some engines that have reliability issues from the factory but the majority have issues due to mechanical neglect/lack of servicing.

[@thodkats]

Now that's a great engine...Too bad it's going to be launched in the start of 2010 in Greece..Anyhows,i noticed that it's an 8Valve engine,while i thought it was a 16-valve..I also noticed that the camshaft belt is a chain actually..Does that mean that it's gonna need less maintance ? What is the mileage in which the services must be done..It's already a very economical engine,but still i d like to know the service mileage,if you can tell me..Thanks a lot !

[@nicolascaceres5441]

Did I hear the word emissions?

[@draulstone]

Does the turbo need to be cooled down, eg should one idle the engine before switching off like turbo diesels? Maybe VW have a turbo cooler which runs, or some other device, on after switching off to avoid turbo failure? Where can I ask VW?

[@mbarizia]

No sure :( You can ask VW on Germany

[@mrasidhu]

the turbo is small so you dont need to worry as it is not a race car

[@emintuzlu]

Yes the turbocharger is small and will cool down faster. In addition to that the bearing housing is water cooled. SO you'd better idle before shut down after heavy use but you don't need to take too long for cooling down.

[@AmelMidzic]

So good that the whole concept was dumped later on by VW!

[@AmelMidzic]

@@parcifes yes newer engine types 1.0 and four cilinder 1.5 with belt instead of chain. They also have some issues, at least the 1.5, so I heard

[@gotdamnimin]

True, TSI is the ish!

[@CharlyGK7]

when did that happen? do you have sources? please share. thanks

[@filipoholz]

Why did KZbin recommend me this 12 year old Video? 🤔

[@BadAssEngineering]

This things with CAI, Downpipe+exhaust, meth injection and a good ECU Tune shoud be actually pretty fast, considering low body weight :D

[@wojtunik]

@lordoftheriffs79 trust meif u know something abaut engine work 3 valves for intake and 2 for exaust is wery good thing 16v have smaller power vithout turbo and supercharger than normal 20v no turbo

[@kordorkordor3181]

Fantástic engine I hace one

[@TheSilviu8x]

16v is not better than 20v,its simply impossible to fit the direct injector inside the head.Vw returns to indirect injection(new 1.8t),to deal with the carbon deposit problem,that affect all brands.

[@dindongdindong8565]

Oh brillant

[@WJ52TLX]

What does TSI Stand For?

[@oamanaz676]

where is the water pump located on the 1.2 TSI?

[@pej0s]

5.5 liters per 100km? my old 2.5 TDi can do that. Will This engine survive half minion km?

[@daynight1921]

lol...:D ..your engine 2.5tdi have 7+ a no 5.5l ;) a this is gas ..no fucking desel ;) u ahve 150hp stock ...a 2.5l V6..this have only 1.2tsi a have 105hp ..45hp low your engine

[@pej0s]

This is R5, not V6. I know that diesel will burn less fuel, but in my case 5.5 is real consumption, not only declaration. And second, my car weight is 1.8t. That's quite heavy

[@thandermax]

Diesel car gives you more miles per gallon compared to gas(petrol) engine

[@pej0s]

thandermax yeap. That's not new. Still no answer for question, what advantage beyond better gas exhaust. If this engine does not survive 300 thousand km there is no ecology

[@thandermax]

I agree. Slowly VW is bringing tech-laden engines which breaks down easily.

[@pedrozaninisegnini8083]

Anyone knows the model of the turbocharger used in this engine?

[@hamizi13]

IHI turbo

[@emintuzlu]

Bosch Mahle Group turbocharger with mixed a flow turbine and an electromechanical wastegate actuator. Compressor is billet machined. Bearings are not ceramic but the bearing housing is cooled via engine coolant. Intercooler is also mounted on the engine block and the charge air is water cooled.

[@warninshoarmy]

1.2 ,1.4 ,2.0 TSI TURBOCHARGER WITH OVER 100 L/ 100km.

[@maszat1515]

my favourite part in my 1.2 tsi is the chaindrive, which has the 1/3 lifetime of a japanese chaindrive, buut costs 3 times more. well played volkswagen

[@dragospahontu]

This one is belt as well

[@YEA89]

6spd manual? i have a 5spd? O.o

[@MarkoBocari]

wonderful

[@JurgenDX]

my 2011 yeti has this engine :)

[@xXturbo86Xx]

1.2 TSI got upraded from 8v chaindriven to 16v beltdriven.....i wonder why.......

[@coolone2412]

i have the same problem from about 120.ooo km

[@rx7here]

well it's been some 120 years since the last major engine invention. that's about 4 generations. wouldn't it be time to start working again to actually make something new?

[@qasimwahid2229]

Check out Aleem Wahid he red lines the hell out of this engine

[@АртемБаранов-д1с]

у меня такой двигатель, бывает трещит как дизель, динамика средняя, топливо потребляет как lada 110000 пробег, пока живой)

[@boboguitar]

My died at 47.000 after 5 year. Aut of guarantee. Nice tihimeing VW. My first and last VW.

[@yamahass66]

Why what problem

[@StrahinjaSRB93]

+pma097 Can I ask you how did it die? Because my Seat Leon 1.2 tsi will be soon out of guarantee and I wouldnt like that to happened. Ako znas neki srpski ili hrvatski slobodno mi odgovori na nasem.

[@SamsonTheCat81]

+StrahinjaSRB93 This video is about the TSI engines of the previous generation (EA111). The current one (EA211) doesn't have the troublesome timing chain anymore, as VW switched back to timing belts. Considering your Leon still has waranty, I guess it's a Leon III (5F) and therefore has a EA211 engine. You don't have to worry about timing chain problems then. Of course I cannot say whether or not something else might break. So far EA211 engines have a better track record than their predecessors. They're around for 4 years now, so this much can be said.

[@StrahinjaSRB93]

+SamsonTheCat81 Thank you for info, but my Leon is 2nd generation, made in 2011. In my country warranty lasts for 5 years. So I could check out that timing chain. Did they maybe make a better version of timing chain because they had problems with those first ones?

[@SamsonTheCat81]

+StrahinjaSRB93 Sorry to hear. I couldn't find reliable information on which models of the EA111 series feature upgraded timing chains.

[@DjN1GmA]

Imagine....... this technology (TSI) in an engine .v. or boxer engine!!!!!!

[@tubenmilch]

a friend of mine has that one. last week the motor died after 5 years and 160.000 km. what a crap.

[@daviesjack12]

+Hans Geher Did he replace the oil every 5K miles? How did he run it. I know people who have had it for 300,000KM and they replace oil every 5,000KM and it still runs strong.

[@tombanic4902]

Exactly, that's what I was saying, the chain driven engines have to have the oil change more frequently. And you cannot press the accelerator to the full when the engine is cold. It has to warm up to a regular operating temperature, than you could drive regularly, before that you have to let the engine to warm up with a smooth drive, with low RPM. This engine is not designed to operate on high RPM-s (like Honda's or other sporty vehicles).

[@tubenmilch]

no, he took the long life service.

[@warninshoarmy]

TSI TURBOCHARGER WITH OVER 100 L/ 100km.

[@jarrus464]

Actually you're wrong, it's proven that the combustion chamber area is less efficient in a 5v engine than a 4v, Ferrari also discovered this after they made the F355 which had 5v per cylinder, every generation after that used a 4v design and they didn't have to consider about the injector placement as only the California and the 458 use direct injection, get you're facts straight first...

[@boboguitar]

Strahinja problem je u verigi ili lancu ne znam kako to vi zovete. On se razteza I nato se dogodi to da preskoči I ode se u p.m. Ako budeš čuo neke čudne zvukove u motoru odmah svrati kot servisera.

[@StrahinjaSRB93]

+pma097 Hvala na informaciji, sad sam tek video odgovor. Aha, da ako se lanac istegne i preskoci pobije ventile i mogu misliti koliko je popravka. Sa obzirom da imam leona 2011to godiste mogao bih to proveriti dok je jos u garanciji. Do sad nisam cuo neke cudne zvuke tokom voznje.

[@SWR012]

that one sounds like a 3 Cylinder machine, aka a sewing machine.

[@yamahass66]

Would nit buyba vw groupnengine today no

[@xXturbo86Xx]

search for 1.2 TSI 63-77kW (EA211)

[@TheYTCable]

yep "as long as there is never 1 single occasion of oil starvation"

[@demk.818]

Whoever invent 1-4 turbocharger intercooler petrol engines in all brands aren't graduation Engineers for build pass test bases F1 speed 160 km/hr to top speed on circuits and test maximum over 20,000 rpm by themselves. End report. From All brands databases

[@zukfreestylo]

Really fast. #zkjoechannel

[@ovidiunaso5639]

direct injection = carbon buildup = oil consumption. see all TFSI audi 2008 - 2012 engines.

[@xXturbo86Xx]

then you either dont have a Polo 1.2 TSI or not even a VW Polo. It's the only one that gets a 6spd manual with that engine. The seat ibiza, skoda fabia and audi A1 get the 5spd. get educated....

[@viktorcsanyi726]

And my Golf 1.2 TSi got a 6 speed manual, and the same time the Audi A3 1.2 TSi, and the Seat Leon, the Altea, the Skoda Yeti, the Octavia or the VW Caddy, the Jetta and even the Beetle got that 6 speed manual...

[@vwgolf7421]

I own a VW Golf 1.4 tsi. After only 5000km this engine starts shaking when running idle. I don't find this normal, do you, but VW finds that an engine that runs irregular is normal !!! And won't do anything about it, even in warranty period !!! You pay a lot of money for a shaky engine, and what about the long term damage. The joke (bill) is on you.

[@thandermax]

Most probably it is carbon builtup. Need proper cleaning by opening the ignition chamber

[@vwgolf7421]

after barely 5000km ? Isn't that soon ?

[@SuenaEnALiCaNTe]

The 1.4 TSI motors VW are failing miserably. I knew a lot of TSI motors with 20-30.000km has broken, My Scirocco TSI 122cv has broken with 2 years and 38.000km, with the max care driving, the great filming, refueling in the best petrol station in Spain. 23.600€ for this?For I had a broken motor? If I know this before I had buying a HOnda or Ford or Bmw I am INDIGNANT, I sent a letter to VW Spain in Barcelona and their answer it was poor and empty! IT`s my opinion and my sad personal experience!!

[@StopTeoriomSpiskowym]

Only 8 valve bad. Cooling of hot air in mainfold could be better. The worst timing chain all problems which chains have

[@FrapsYou]

Shut up and take my money!!!!!!!

[@xXturbo86Xx]

oh yeah? want me to read some numbers....? i guess you don't...

[@twicon]

smartest engine ever!!!

[@skatiaris21]

all that TSI sounds good ... but in the end all these motors are problematic ... they burn oil in most cases and ur pocket pays it all ... 1.4 GT with 170hp is the worst engine to choose ... horsepower sounds great but after 20k km u will definitely regret it ...

[@ericmwangi8289]

If you need an engine with high horsepower and less friction, a 2L or more is better. Otherwise smaller engines with high horsepower is problematic

[@mrasidhu]

hmmm 12 valve

[@StopTeoriomSpiskowym]

Who caress CO2 when all turbo engines produce many NO and others

[@sjonbeta7879]

2.0 or more!!

[@cirrusodd]

liars...

[@michalgoes]

CBZA and CBZB (63 kW and 77 kW) engines =worst engines from VW Group EVER !

[@michalgoes]

1.2 Tsi type CBZA and type CBZB (63 kW and 77 kW) engines =worst engines from VW Group EVER ! Timing chain which withstand only 40 - 60000 km ... No to mention broken pistons

[@Whiner91]

crap engine died at 9k

[@xXYannuschXx]

They already had quality issues with the downsized 1.4 TSI and now they have a even smaller 1.2 TSI... VW has turned into shit-company...

[@pvultureb8341]

No, the base 1.2 TSI and 1.4 TSI have no problem what so ever. Only the 1.2tsi with 77w and 1.4tsi with supercharger+turbochargers have problems. Please do some research first. I owned both base 1.2 and 1.4 for 4+ years now. Nothing has ever happened to these engines.

[@xXYannuschXx]

Pvulture b My parents own a Seat Altea XL with a 1.4 TSI 92kw and they had SO many problems with that thing...
