Test Group: NVGAV02.0V7B / Emission Std.: Tier 3 BIN 70 LEV3 ULEV70

Problems:

Dynamic brake support (dbs) malfunction

DBS may fail to activate, not providing additional braking force in emergency situations.

Carbon buildup

Direct injection engines like the 2.0 TSI can suffer from carbon buildup on intake valves, leading to rough idling and reduced performance.

Oil consumption

Some Volkswagen 2.0 TSI engines are known for higher-than-normal oil consumption, which can lead to frequent top-offs or more serious engine issues if neglected.

Turbocharger issues

The turbocharger may develop faults, including boost leaks, wastegate failure, or bearing wear, leading to reduced power and performance.

Timing chain tensioner failure

The timing chain tensioner in some 2.0 TSI engines can fail, leading to potential engine damage if not addressed promptly.

Cooling system problems

Issues with the coolant pump or thermostat can lead to overheating and potential engine damage.

Fuel injector problems

Faulty fuel injectors can cause misfires, poor fuel economy, and reduced engine performance.

Pcv valve failure

A failed positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) valve can lead to oil leaks and poor engine performance.

Ignition coil failure

Faulty ignition coils can cause misfires and rough running conditions.

Emissions-related issues

Components like the EGR valve or catalytic converter can fail, leading to increased emissions and potential legal issues with emissions standards.
