Does the EA111 Engine Burn Oil?
1 Answers
The EA111 engine does not normally burn oil. Engine oil burning may be due to the engine's structural design or external factors. During operation, the use of different oil qualities can easily lead to significant carbon deposits in the combustion chamber, which might be one of the reasons for oil burning. Volkswagen's EA111 series engines are the company's main small-displacement engines, available in 1.4L and 1.6L variants. They incorporate advanced technologies such as direct fuel injection and turbocharging, offering advantages like small displacement, high power, and low fuel consumption. The EA111 series engines come in two material types: cast iron cylinder blocks and aluminum cylinder blocks. The 1.4L and 1.6L engines introduced in China and installed in various Volkswagen models feature aluminum cylinder heads and cast iron cylinder blocks.
