This self-study programmme describes the design and function of
the 2.0l 4-cylinder TFSI engine from the EA888 Gen.3 MLBevo
engine series with power outputs of 140 kW and 185 kW
After you have completed this self study programme you will be
able to answer the following questions:
The 4-cylinder TFSI engine by Audi represents the next
evolution-ary step forward, the basis being the third-generation engine The
new engine is available with a displacement of 2 litres and in
2 performance classes, one of which supersedes the previous 1.8l
Gen.3 engine of performance class 1 (125 kW to 147 kW)
The aim of Audi’s designers was to reduce both CO2 and particulate
emissions in line with statutory requirements The 2.0l Gen.3 BC
engine shows that even fuel economy can be improved while
increasing engine displacement The abbreviation "BC" stands for
B cycle, a Miller combustion cycle which has now been refined by
Audi
The engine modifications for both performance classes are cal with respect to the engine mechanicals, where a number of friction-reducing measures have been implemented There are differences as regards charge cycles and the combustion process The performance class 1 engine operates on the Miller cycle, a patent dating from the year 1947 It was premiered in May 2015
identi-at the Vienna Motor Symposium as the most efficient petrol engine
in its class
More than 10 years earlier, Audi put into production the first turbocharged, direct injection TFSI engine and, thus, with the aid
of downsizing and downspeeding, set a milestone for
"Vorsprung durch Technik".

Trang 4Objective
By adopting a process known as rightsizing, Audi has, after
down-sizing, taken a further, decisive step forward Innovative engine
technologies are selectively combined and configured in such a way
that displacement, power output, torque, fuel consumption and
operating conditions are optimally balanced
The new engines have all the fuel economy advantages of a
down-sized unit in partial-load operation At higher engine loads, they
draw on the benefits of the high-displacement engine This
pro-vides an optimal combination of efficiency and performance across
the entire rev band
For the first time, these engines are being used in the latest generation of the Audi A4 (type 8W) Audi also plans to employ these units in a number of Group vehicles in both longitudinal and transverse configurations
The descriptions in this self study programme refer to the dinal engines in the Audi A4 (type 8W) at the start of production

Trang 9Oil supply
• Modified to create space for the use of electromechanical steering (ESP) and the planned roll stabilisation system.
• A non-return valve in the oil filter module allows maximum oil pressure to
be built up more quickly at all lubrication points, especially when the engine is cold There is no non-return valve in the engine block or in the cylinder head.
• Increasing the oil volume between minimum and maximum oil levels ensures that a sufficient volume of oil is available at the intake end of the oil pump whenever the driver adopts an especially dynamic driving style.
Cylinder head
• An alternative material is used to allow for higher power output and the resultant higher levels of thermal stress
• The coolant jacket is now thicker
• The valvegear has been modified, e.g by using sodium-filled exhaust valves, to allow for higher power output and the resultant higher levels of thermal stress
• The exhaust turbocharger has been uprated for temperature stability up to
950 °C
Engine block
• The ventilation system has been rerouted across the balancer shafts.
• The modifications to the positive crankcase ventilation system necessitate directional installation of the piston cooling jets (refer to workshop manual)

645_040
When work began on the development of the crank train, the focus
was on reducing friction and weight
• Reduced bearing diameter
in performance class 1 engine
However, there are several differences between the performance class 1 and 2 engines These are explained below
Overview
↗ Refer to "Glossary" on page 28
Engine mechanicals
Trang 13These components for the performance class 2 engine have, to the
greatest possible extent, been adopted from the precedessor
engine Only the piston rings have been modified A 3-piece oil
control ring is now used (refer to "3-piece oil control ring" on
page 27)
Further modifications were made to the performance class 1
engine due to the higher compression levels and the new TFSI
combustion process
The combustion chambers have larger crumple zones (masking)
necessitating the use of smaller intake valves
Enlarged epsilon zone
Adapted valve recesses
Smaller intake valves

The main bearings of the performance class 2 engine have the
same diameter as in the third-generation engine The main
bear-ings of the performance class 1 engine are of the same size as in
Equi-sized exhaust valves

the previous 1.8l TFSI engine This has made it possible to achieve further weight savings Both crankshafts uniformly have 4 counter-weights
The enlarged crumped zones enhance the swirling action of the fuel/air mixture inside the cylinder Accordingly, use is made of shaped valve recesses in the piston crowns and an enlarged

Positive crankcase ventilation
Due to the Audi valvelift system (AVS) being relocated to the intake
side of the performance class 1 engine, it was necessary to adapt
the positive crankcase ventilation system Instead of the previous
extraction points in the crank chambers of cylinders 3 and 4, the
blow-by gases ↗ are now extracted from the crank chambers in the
area of cylinders 1 and 2
The blow-by gases flow from here into the housing of a balancer
shaft
Engine block
Blow-by gas extraction points
in crank chambers 1 and 2
A slotted sleeve which allows through-flow of the blow-by gases is integrated in the balancer shaft housing
The rotation of the balancer shaft (centrifugal effect) ensures that
a large proportion of the oil is separated from the blow-by gases (coarse oil separator) and flows back into the oil pan The onward flow path of the blow-by gases to the fine oil separator module on the cylinder head is otherwise identical to that of the third-genera-tion 2.0l TFSI engine

↗ Refer to "Glossary" on page 28
Trang 15Piston cooling jets
Given that the performance class 1 engine uses a modified positive
crankcase ventilation system where the blow-by flow gases flow
around one of the balancer shafts, it was also necessary to effect
changes in the manufacturing of the engine block As a result, the
piston cooling jets are now no longer abutting the crank chamber

Engine oil 0W-20
To further reduce the friction and thereby improve fuel economy,
the performance class 1 engine uses an engine oil with the 0W-20
specification in compliance with the VW 50800 and VW 50900
standards
The new engine oil has the following properties:
• It allows faster pressure build-up because it has a low viscosity,
enabling it to reach the lubrication points more quickly In
addition, it is more cost-effective for drivers with a short
dis-tance profile because less friction loss occurs in the engine
(lower oil resistance)
• A chemical marker has been added to the new oil (green
colora-tion) so it can be identified more easily in a laboratory
• The oil is not downwardly compatible, i.e. it is only suitable for use in approved engines
• Oil pressure builds up slightly more slowly due to the low viscosity of the oil This is why the oil pump runs slightly more slowly in the third-generation MLBevo 2.0l TFSI engine of performance class 1 In addition, a new non-return valve is integrated in the oil filter housing
Previously, a contact edge was required for this purpose For this reason, care must be taken to ensure that the piston cooling jets are exactly aligned during installation in the new engine If this is not the case, the reliable functioning of the piston cooling system cannot be guaranteed

Trang 16Cylinder head
Whereas the cylinder head of the performance class 2 engine is to
a large extent a carry-over from the third-generation 2.0l TFSI
engine, a number of modifications have been made to the cylinder
head of the performance class 1 engine
The cylinder head of the performance class 1 engine has the
following modifications:
• The Audi valvelift system (AVS) has been moved to the intake
side
• The cylinder head cover has been adapted to accommodate the
new installation position of the Audi valvelift system (AVS)
• The compression ratio has been increased from 9.6:1 to 11.7:1
by reducing the volume of the compression chamber
• Modified valve masking
• Lowering of combustion chamber ceiling by 9 mm
• Modified piston shape
Masking
This was necessary to implement the new TFSI combustion process However, this has also improved running refinement and reduced knock tendency
• FSI injectors are positioned closer to the combustion chambers
• The intake ports have been redesigned, i.e made straighter, to optimise charging motion
• The positions of the spark plug and high-pressure injector as well as the shape of the piston have been adapted to the new combustion chamber design
• Valve guide housings for better heat dissipation
• Double-lip exhaust valve stem seals
