I presume you're looking at the 2,0 turbo? |
Re: Need Advice On Passat 2006w by Davico(m): 12:55pm On Feb 15, 2013 |
Siena: I presume you're looking at the 2,0 turbo?Yes boss |
Re: Need Advice On Passat 2006w by Nobody: 1:40pm On Feb 15, 2013 |
Davico: All 2,0 turbo motors in the VW Passat run FSI technology. Fuel Stratified Injection. This is the petrol equivalent of TDI (Direct Injection in a diesel engine). The fuel system pressure is very high, more than twice regular EFI pressure. This means should the fuel pump fail, there's no substitute. Fit a regular EFI pump, the engine will not run. So of course, this is not a car for your roadside or non-qualified mechanic. There's also the added complication of having a turbo. It's a highly-strung motor, and again, not the average Nigerian mechanic's dream. It's a nice refined, and powerful inline 4, but unless you're looking to use a Volkswagen dealer exclusively for service and repairs, I would rule this engine out. Given the country you intend to use the car in, I would advice the 1,6 FSI. You can't avoid FSI technology with the petrol-engined B6 VW Passat, but at least you get a less complicated engine that will be a whole lot more reliable. One issue with turbocharged engines is heat, and in Nigeria, that's one thing you could well do without. Good luck! |
