Honestly, a lot of misinformation in this video. I work at VAG and the 1.0 TSI is honestly one of the most reliable engines VAG has produced in the last dozen of years. Its very economical and requires very little maintenance. The timing belt does not have a maintenance requirement, from 210.000 km’s the dealership will inspect the timing belt and in case of drying out it will need replacement. I’ve seen cars coming back from lease with close to 300.000 km’s and still having their original timing belt. Also, the reason it does not need replacing is because the timing belt solely runs the engine and things like the waterpump are located on the other side of the engine with their own timing belt, thus removing stress on both systems. Also the sound at startup is just a characteristic of the 1.0 TSI and other TSI engines and its partially due to the fact that the engine revs up while stationary with a cold engine in order to heat up the lambda sensor faster for environmental reasons. Also, I have never really heard of excessive oil use or oil use at all. It is possible off course but so is the case for any engine if not taken care of and being abused. Not warming up your engine and revving up while cold will cause basically any engine to start using oil over time. Also, officially oil changes are required every 30.000 km but basically any mechanic you speak to will advise to do so every year or 15.000 km. There is a reason why Toyota does so and its basically to keep your engine performing well, especially small high tech engines such as these.

I have a fabia with the 1.0 tsi, I watch my oil and my turbo and it say normally it consumes 0.5 liter every 1.5k km and indeed at the first 1.5k km it needed 0.5 L of oil but when I hit the 3k mark the oil pressure had less than half the oil consumption actually more like 0.2L, so is it because of heating it up and letting it cool everytime? Also I have an oil change scheduled at 30k km should I try to do it earlier?

I have a 1.0 TSI 70 kW and 115,000 km without a single problem. The oil was changed every 30,000 km according to the manufacturer until 90,000 km, since then I change it every 10,000 km. Oil consumption is minimal - there is always 0.3 l missing per oil interval of 10,000 km, but I think it remains in the oil filter.
My grandmother has a Škoda Fabia with this engine. Bought it brand new. Currently at 80k kms, almost 6 years and no problems with the car so far. She drives it on country roads, highways and city too. It runs fine in temperatures from +30C to -30C. Runs pretty much the same as new, really. I think this engine is great for a tiny car, but would be a bit weak for something like a Octavia.
I got this 1.0 TSI (85 kw) coupled to a 7 speed DSG in my Octavia. It's absolutely fine, crossing the alps with 3 on board, almost a full trunk, no sweat really. Doing trans continental journeys through europe with it regularly and it's great. Fuel consumption is between 5 to 6 litres / 100 km at speeds between 120 and 130 kph. It's comfortable, it's quiet.... it will do 200 kph if you want.... what else do you need really? Also, now 130k km, not a single issue whatsoever (getting it serviced at skoda at the required intervals). And there's no timing belt, it's chain driven so no need to worry about belts. I can also report no oil consumption. I'm very pleased with it. Hopefully it won't go wrong after writing all this :)

He told me on the 1.0 TSI there is no service requirement for it because the timing is provided by a chain instead of a belt and it should last the lifetime of the engine. BUT (big but) I recently found a PDF online describing the technical aspects of EA211 TSI engines, and it contradicts the Skoda dealer. The PDF states "Toothed belt-actuated timing." do a google search for "VAG_EA211_EA888_family_engine_eng pdf" and you should be able to find the document I am referring to. Hope this helps. In short, there does seem to be a belt and not a chain :) Having said that, apparently the recommendation for belt servicing is 15 years or 180k miles, which would indicate that this is not a regular timing belt like you find on most other engines, it seems to be extra heavy duty.

Current Seat recommendation on timing belt change (in Finland) for this eng. is 90tkm or 5years, which comes first. There has been a lot of timing belt issues here and also elsewhere. Please change earlier. That 210tkm was original instruction but is too high.

Just wanted to let you know that I did the replacement of the timing belt while the car did 140 000 km. Unfortunately I don't know what was the condition of the original belt, but for sure I will sleep more calm from now on. The only difference I noticed is that the engine is somehow vibrating a little bit more while it works on idle, but the sound is similar when I compared the recorded video before the change and after the change. In Finland, timing belt kit with the alternator belt costed 298 euros, including the labor.
I bought a 2019 plate Skoda Fabia with a 110 bhp petrol engine last year with 25K on the clock. I've had it for almost a year and thought that it was due for a Timing belt change this year. I contacted the Skoda dealership where I bought the car and they informed me that there was a 'lifetime" belt fitted. No need to change !
EA 211 series engines, once you loosen the crankshaft webs, the lightweight aluminum open block with large cooling channels can distort. The manufacturer forbids reassembling such an engine. And even if it were allowed, the costs of reassembly are not exactly small - not only the gasket under the cylinder head and screws, but also a whole range of other parts must not be used repeatedly.
Which parts must not be reused? Of course, the gaskets and all screws must be new (single-use torque to yield bolts), also the bearings when the engine is already open.
Exactly what I needed to know at the moment. I'm looking at a fault with my turbo actuator and the garage have quoted £260 for new. BTW 2021 VW 'Approved' T Roc owned 6 months with 12500 on clock. Not covered by warranty!
I would check every 50k to 100k Kilometers. Early if you drive short trips alot, if you drive at least 20km per trip, the engine will get hot and you won't have much oil built up. Also important, change your oil after 15000km, and use decent oil quality and a good filter brand. But overall yes, the engine will get carbon built up, since it's a direct injection engine.
hey great video , in india we have it in polo coupled with aisin aq250 tc gearbox , the engine produces 110 ps /175 nm of torque the only thing i notice as a flaw is you gotta keep topping up the engine oil after 4-5k km's the engine consumes oil.
Well it might be a problem specific to your car. I have the same 1.0 tsi Skoda Rapid driven 43K and it has never drank oil. Although I change oil more often at ~7500 km mark.
I have same 1 ltr tsi in polo highline plus manual, Aug 2020 model. 42 thousand km driven with no such problem. Servicing and oil changing in a year or 15 thousand km.
I own a VW Nivus EA211 TSi 1.0 liter turbo flex fuel (ethanol + gasoline) in Brazil, and I have nothing to complain about it. It is a little bit noisy as shown, but it is very powerful for its size and I've seen cars with almost 200 thousand kilometers on it running fine. The biggest problem I see is that people do remap and "stage 1/2/3" upgrades on them to output 200+ HP, which cause an enormous stress. Then they revert their modifications to sell as if it was original.
Thanks for putting up the video with details. I have the engine mounted on a Skoda Rapid Indian version and feel that power has slightly decreased after the first service @ 15K kms. I have driven 43K until now. Do you have any idea why that power/peppiness difference might be ?
Thanks for the video Jim. I have this engine. I’ve noticed that for about a minute after starting it makes a sound like plates rattling but then stops. I asked a garage once to check it over but they couldn’t find a problem. Does this sound normal?
Hi Jim, I work at VAG. Yes its perfectly normal and just a characteristic of the 1.0 TSI. Also, it has to do with the fact that it keeps revs up just after starting in order to heat up the lambda sensor faster for eco reasons.
Mine has been spot on; I’ve modded the fuck out of it, should be running around 165-170 brake soon and it’s taking it fine, gets ragged every day and still mint
Also from 2020. 1.0 tsi cilynder walls was plasma coated so a disposable solution with no repairs( no wall re-boring option). The longetivity of such a coating is to be determined

I’ve had a golf mk7 variant for 106.000km now with no problems at all. Mileage is great (average around 4 l/100km) and no burnt oil (even when I still had the 30.000km service interval). Only the sound of the engine gives me the creeps and also it seems a little shaking sometimes. I also recently noticed that there is a pretty strong vacuum sucking on the oil cap. Does anyone have the same or do I need to check the crankcase breather?
Sucking is fine, then you have an underpressure inside the engine. Overpressure on the other hand, causes seals to blow and leak oil. Your engine is fine.

oil consumption is problem in 2.0 Tsi not in 1.0 Tsi. And accually this engine 1.0 is much better compared to Ecoboost.

The automatic gearshift is better in the Hyundai though, both to drive and maintenance/reliability wise
@@iansellan According to my experience - the lifespan of an engine does not depend on whether it has a turbo, how many cylinders it has, or how much power it has per 1 liter. The service life depends primarily on the design and maintenance, I know many NA engines around that last less than the 1.0 TSI. And I say this completely dispassionately, I also have an NA 4.4 V8 with port injection in my garage, I only have a 1.0 TSI for normal driving and towing trailers (yes, it can handle it without problems). I bought the 1.0 TSI for its robust construction which includes sodium cooled valves, reinforced bearings, dry belt timing (no wet belt or chain - which are difficult and expensive to replace) and the like. There are no problems with the 1.0 TSI in my area, where many drive them, some of them have driven over 500,000 km. I also had a Honda in the past - 1.5l D15Z6 with 220,000km and even though it ran fine and had good fuel consumption, it sometimes ate over 1l per 1000km of oil and I still had bad emissions through a dirty catalytic converter - if I put my finger in the exhaust it was full of oil . And there were problems with it, as well as all the Hondas in the area have very high oil consumption.
@@neolerades2987 Yes ok but direct injection only creates carbon buildups on the intake valves that you would need to clean in future so no thanks to only direct injection
@@iansellan You're right, but - I've driven well over 100,000 km and there are still no signs of dirty valves. I plan to clean them at home at 150,000 km as a precaution - this means that they will be cleaned 1-2 times during the lifetime of the engine/car. And it can be done relatively easily at home, so it's not a decisive thing for me. On the engine, e.g. you also need to change the timing belt - which is a much more expensive and complicated thing than cleaning the valves, and there are more such actions, including changing the clutch, axle parts, brakes and the like.

I bought a 2019 plate Skoda Fabia with a 110 bhp petrol engine last year with 25K on the clock. I've had it for almost a year and thought that it was due for a Timing belt change this year. I contacted the Skoda dealership where I bought the car and they informed me that there was a 'lifetime" belt fitted. No need to change !
EA 211 series engines, once you loosen the crankshaft webs, the lightweight aluminum open block with large cooling channels can distort. The manufacturer forbids reassembling such an engine. And even if it were allowed, the costs of reassembly are not exactly small - not only the gasket under the cylinder head and screws, but also a whole range of other parts must not be used repeatedly.
Which parts must not be reused? Of course, the gaskets and all screws must be new (single-use torque to yield bolts), also the bearings when the engine is already open.
Hi Jim. Your video on fiesta timing belt replacement was brilliant. Thank you. Hope at some point you can post a 1.0 tsi t/belt and water pump change.
What about carbon build up on the intake valves ? Any issues with that in the long term.
Exactly what I needed to know at the moment. I'm looking at a fault with my turbo actuator and the garage have quoted £260 for new. BTW 2021 VW 'Approved' T Roc owned 6 months with 12500 on clock. Not covered by warranty!
will we need to clean up the carbon on the intake valves in a periodic basis on these engines?
I would check every 50k to 100k Kilometers. Early if you drive short trips alot, if you drive at least 20km per trip, the engine will get hot and you won't have much oil built up.
Also important, change your oil after 15000km, and use decent oil quality and a good filter brand. But overall yes, the engine will get carbon built up, since it's a direct injection engine.
hey great video , in india we have it in polo coupled with aisin aq250 tc gearbox , the engine produces 110 ps /175 nm of torque the only thing i notice as a flaw is you gotta keep topping up the engine oil after 4-5k km's the engine consumes oil.
Well it might be a problem specific to your car. I have the same 1.0 tsi Skoda Rapid driven 43K and it has never drank oil. Although I change oil more often at ~7500 km mark.
Nie pobiera oleju mam 25 tys km ani grama
I have same 1 ltr tsi in polo highline plus manual, Aug 2020 model. 42 thousand km driven with no such problem. Servicing and oil changing in a year or 15 thousand km.
Hi fellow indian tsi users , what octane fuel do you use premium or regular??
No such problem in my Kushaq 1.0tsi. I do not see any oil consumption. Runs great with 95 octane fuel.
Is there an issue known with intake carbon on walves?
Looking for this
I own a VW Nivus EA211 TSi 1.0 liter turbo flex fuel (ethanol + gasoline) in Brazil, and I have nothing to complain about it. It is a little bit noisy as shown, but it is very powerful for its size and I've seen cars with almost 200 thousand kilometers on it running fine. The biggest problem I see is that people do remap and "stage 1/2/3" upgrades on them to output 200+ HP, which cause an enormous stress. Then they revert their modifications to sell as if it was original.
But you never talked about the engines blowing at that power?
@@enzoUKSC engines of any power will break one day, so what's your point about that? I didn't get it
Hats off to the vw engineers mik8 soundproofing as I hardly hear mines
yup, same with the seat arona
Only lies, this engine is very good have no oil consumption, if you change oil regulary 0 issue. Very good fuel consumtion for this performance
Does it have carbon deposit problems on the valves?
I also want to know
It's direct injection so I'd imagine this would/could become an issue over time.
Thanks for putting up the video with details. I have the engine mounted on a Skoda Rapid Indian version and feel that power has slightly decreased after the first service @ 15K kms. I have driven 43K until now. Do you have any idea why that power/peppiness difference might be ?
Because its a VW.
Perhaps they put a mapping upgrade on the engine
@@d.m.3259 Yeah that is what I am also thinking.
Thanks for the video Jim. I have this engine. I’ve noticed that for about a minute after starting it makes a sound like plates rattling but then stops. I asked a garage once to check it over but they couldn’t find a problem. Does this sound normal?
Hi Jim, I work at VAG. Yes its perfectly normal and just a characteristic of the 1.0 TSI. Also, it has to do with the fact that it keeps revs up just after starting in order to heat up the lambda sensor faster for eco reasons.
Mine has been spot on; I’ve modded the fuck out of it, should be running around 165-170 brake soon and it’s taking it fine, gets ragged every day and still mint
Do you think it’s possible to get more power ?
At what point does it come unreliable ?
Also from 2020. 1.0 tsi cilynder walls was plasma coated so a disposable solution with no repairs( no wall re-boring option).
The longetivity of such a coating is to be determined
Any updates?
Stop talking shite
Hey Jim, need some advice. I have 2 camshaft sprocket plugs/caps that were torqued by king Kong using a 40ft torque wrench on my st180. They will honestly not move a mm. Any advice would be so appreciated. 🙏🙏🙏
Golf 7 from 2019 1 liter TSI 147 000km and no issues.
Same here, 101000km, when do you think is the right time for Major service? I have couple mechanics saying i dont have to do it yet, only minor services every 10 - 15k

My Audi a1 1.0 tfsi has developed a ticking noise around 2000 revs when accelerating then again when de-accelerating and ok when idling!? Any ideas thanks
Does it sound like it’s coming from the center console? I have a similar noise in my one but I don’t think it’s from the engine it must be something on the interior as that sound comes and goes
what you think from a seat ibiza 1.0 ecotsi from 2015/12
Honestly ive not had any experience with them I dont think to be able to say. Thanks for commenting though 👍
Did you say 1 loter in 5 or 1 thousand km?
Which specific oil do you reccomend for this engine and do you recommend 100 octane fuel?
5W30 VW502 or VW505
Anyone had any Evap problems. Got the fault code P04FO (evap system high pressure purge line performance) i reset it and it comes back. Someone at a garage told me a few months a just need to take it for a high rev drive down a dual carriageway or similar but that defo dont work.
I also have that… still haven’t been able to resolve. Luckily it doesn’t affect drivability or security of the vehicle
I’ve had a golf mk7 variant for 106.000km now with no problems at all. Mileage is great (average around 4 l/100km) and no burnt oil (even when I still had the 30.000km service interval).
Only the sound of the engine gives me the creeps and also it seems a little shaking sometimes.
I also recently noticed that there is a pretty strong vacuum sucking on the oil cap. Does anyone have the same or do I need to check the crankcase breather?
Sucking is fine, then you have an underpressure inside the engine. Overpressure on the other hand, causes seals to blow and leak oil. Your engine is fine.
Всем привет! Ребята подскажите пожалуйста купил автомобиль с таким двигателем, какой у него допуск моторного масла???

How many kms can these engines run?
The most important thing is ommited
They tested one here with 415000km. No oil consumption, no signs of wear.
Que motor es el de 110cv del año entre 2017 y 2018 el que lleva el filtro de aire encima del motor como en el vídeo muchos mantenimientos correas cada cuanto y liquido refrigerante llevaba el de agencia el G13 O se cambió que era taxista o de Uber gracias
Good video I've had one of these in a company car in a SEAT Leon but have bought my own car now, a SEAT Leon 1.5 TSI variant - do you have any experience of them?
1.5 TSI is well made and solid
oil consumption is problem in 2.0 Tsi not in 1.0 Tsi.
And accually this engine 1.0 is much better compared to Ecoboost. Eco boost can die in 30 Th miles. 1.0 Tsi can take at lest 140.000 miles without big problems.
And yes oitside motior sound is funny, big car is very quiet inside and this is one of big advantage of this small Tsi. Cheap and very quiet car is not much common. And this car still can be easily services and home. Oil and filter change is very easy. Lot of space in the motor area.....
Does your engine move ? when running mine vibrates a lot
Also mine. It's the 3 cylinder.
@@dimdimis2936 I Heard its normal yeah 👍
Thanks man
I have a skoda octavia with this engine and 270k km. .Problems radiators and intake manifold because is plastic . No turbo or other issues. I drove daily like 200km
What happened to the plastic parts ?
hi did you get any carbon buildup issues on the intake valves?
Hello everyone.. I was wondering if someone can tell me wich type of AT does the golf mk7.5 2018 1.0 tsi 110hp has.. ( is it DQ200 or something else?) Thanks
So it is a lot better than ecoboost and puretech engines but will not last forever like non-turbo japanese engines for example toyota or mazda.
What about the 1.0 t-gdi engine of hyundai
@@x.kasiouris5503 Id say that in general Hyundai is a lot more reliable than VW but the 1.0 t-gdi is not their best engine and the 1.0 tsi is one of VW best engines and is more reliable than the t-gdi. The automatic gearshift is better in the Hyundai though, both to drive and maintenance/reliability wise
Ok is quite noisy😂 even when it worms up, compared to my Honda 1.8 that you even don't here it running
My 1.0 TSI only makes the sound of clicking injectors, but it's not an unpleasant sound and you only hear it outside.
@@neolerades2987 Jees but sorry it will never last as long as an N/A, port injected engine, and is 3 cylinder so even worst
@@iansellan According to my experience - the lifespan of an engine does not depend on whether it has a turbo, how many cylinders it has, or how much power it has per 1 liter.
The service life depends primarily on the design and maintenance, I know many NA engines around that last less than the 1.0 TSI. And I say this completely dispassionately, I also have an NA 4.4 V8 with port injection in my garage, I only have a 1.0 TSI for normal driving and towing trailers (yes, it can handle it without problems).
I bought the 1.0 TSI for its robust construction which includes sodium cooled valves, reinforced bearings, dry belt timing (no wet belt or chain - which are difficult and expensive to replace) and the like. There are no problems with the 1.0 TSI in my area, where many drive them, some of them have driven over 500,000 km.
I also had a Honda in the past - 1.5l D15Z6 with 220,000km and even though it ran fine and had good fuel consumption, it sometimes ate over 1l per 1000km of oil and I still had bad emissions through a dirty catalytic converter - if I put my finger in the exhaust it was full of oil . And there were problems with it, as well as all the Hondas in the area have very high oil consumption.
@@neolerades2987 Yes ok but direct injection only creates carbon buildups on the intake valves that you would need to clean in future so no thanks to only direct injection
@@iansellan You're right, but - I've driven well over 100,000 km and there are still no signs of dirty valves. I plan to clean them at home at 150,000 km as a precaution - this means that they will be cleaned 1-2 times during the lifetime of the engine/car. And it can be done relatively easily at home, so it's not a decisive thing for me. On the engine, e.g. you also need to change the timing belt - which is a much more expensive and complicated thing than cleaning the valves, and there are more such actions, including changing the clutch, axle parts, brakes and the like.
my dealer said to me for myt audi 999 tfsi that i must change oil every 30.000klm or 2 years. is that right? THANX
Νο! Every 10.000 or 15.000 shorter is better. In 8.000 the oil is mostly dead.

Rubbish engine. Very under powered
Terrible design; there are many good 3 cylinder engines out there, the Mitsubishi, Daihatsu, Honda all will last 200K miles with minimal maintenance.
Honda Civic has a wet belt on the 1.0. Meaning it needs to be replaced more often, is hard to replace, thus, very expensive, and people report issues with the turbo, pushing the bill up to 2400 euros (just for the turbo). I have yet to hear of a good 3 cylinder engine.
@@bojangjoreski1260 The Daihatsu engine (built by Toyota) the 1KR-FE is a bulletproof engine, uses a timing chain. It is found in Toyota Aygo, Citroen C1, Peugeot 107/108 and very many K-class vehicles in Japan.
Yeah, but vw 1.0tsi is one of the better ones. Ford ecoboost propably worst. If you check long run ecoboosts for sale, most of them have new turbo installed.
