Disadvantages of the VW AXX engine

  • This motor is famous for its high oil consumption and increased carbon formation.
  • Intake valves and variable geometry dampers in the intake suffer from soot.
  • Here you can get rid of the oil burner by replacing the original pistons with forged ones.
  • The timing belt here serves about 90,000 km, about the same as the inter-shaft chain.
  • Up to 100 thousand km, the phase regulator or the pusher of the high-pressure fuel pump drive may fail.
  • Ignition coils and bypass valve N249 also have a modest resource.
