Before us is a modified version of the well-known naturally aspirated 1.8-liter four-cylinder VW engine, the main innovation of which was the use of turbocharging. The cylinder head in the engine uses a 20-valve, 5 valves per cylinder, with a variable valve timing system on the intake shaft. There are hydraulic lifters so you don’t need to adjust the valves to 1.8T. The timing belt uses a belt, which should be changed every ~ 60,000 km; if the belt breaks, the motor will bend the valve.

Seat Exeo
The Seat Exeo is a Spanish mid-range car from SEAT S.A., part of the Volkswagen Group. Manufactured in Catalonia, Spain from 2008 to 2013. The car is essentially a modified version of the Audi A4 in the B7 generation. The car was produced in two body styles – a 4-door 5-seater sedan and a 5-door 5-seater station wagon in a front-wheel drive configuration. Over the entire production period, about 77 thousand copies of Exeo were made. The model name means “extraordinary” or “out of the ordinary”.

Engine EA113 2.0 TFSI
The two-liter engine of the EA113 TFSI series was released in 2004 and was developed on the basis of a naturally aspirated engine with direct fuel injection VW 2.0 FSI. The main difference between the two engines is not difficult to guess from the first letter added – the new engine is turbocharged. This is not the only difference, the power unit must be properly prepared for high power, instead of an aluminum cylinder block, the TFSI uses a cast-iron cylinder block with a modified balancing mechanism with two balancing shafts, uses a different crankshaft with thick persistent tides, pistons modified for a reduced Compression ratio on reinforced connecting rods.

Engine EA827 1.6
The EA827 1.6L engine was developed back in 1985. It was a block with a short-stroke crankshaft of 77.4mm and cylinder diameters of 81mm. Engine with one camshaft and eight valves in the cylinder head (SOHC 8V). The engine versions with injection technology on the intake shaft were equipped with a variable valve timing system. Adjustment of valve clearances on this engine is not necessary, because there are hydraulic compensators in the motor design.
