What are the engine specifications of the Golf 6?

[JordanLynn]

The engine model of the Golf 6 is EA211-DJS, with a maximum power of 110 kW, maximum torque of 250 Nm, maximum horsepower of 150 Ps, maximum power speed of 5000-6000 rpm, maximum torque speed of 1750-3000 rpm, and equipped with direct fuel injection technology. The engine used in the Golf 6 is independently developed by the Volkswagen Group and is manufactured in Shanghai. For daily maintenance of the Golf 6 engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements; Regularly change the oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, the performance deteriorates, which can cause various problems for the engine. To avoid failures, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and keep the oil volume moderate; When oil passes through the fine holes of the filter, solid particles and sticky substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is blocked and oil cannot pass through the filter element, the filter element may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve, bringing dirt back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution; Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder wall, mixing with metal powder from part wear to form sludge. When the amount is small, it suspends in the oil; when large, it precipitates from the oil, blocking the filter and oil holes, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear; Regularly use radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the normal operation of the engine but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

I've studied the Golf 6 engine specifications many times, as this car was truly iconic back in the day. The domestically produced 1.4T engine came in two versions: the low-power variant with 96 kW (~131 hp) and 220 Nm of torque, reaching peak torque at just 1,600 rpm; the high-power version delivered 110 kW (150 hp) and 250 Nm. The naturally aspirated 1.6L engine produced 77 kW (105 hp) and 155 Nm. The imported GTI's 2.0T was the most powerful, boasting 147 kW (200 hp) with 280 Nm of torque kicking in from 1,700 rpm. Special mention goes to the 1.4T's DSG dual-clutch transmission – shifts were quick, but early models had notable low-speed jerking issues. Also, regular carbon buildup cleaning is essential for the EA111 engine.

Having repaired Volkswagen cars for over a decade, I can recite the Golf 6's engine parameters blindfolded. The most common 1.4TSI comes in two versions: 131 horsepower and 150 horsepower, with torque outputs of 220 Nm and 250 Nm respectively - they're particularly responsive in city driving. The 1.6 naturally aspirated engine only makes 105 horsepower, but it's durable and reliable, running fine on 92 octane fuel. The GTI's 2.0T squeezes out 200 horsepower with great tuning potential. These engines generally require attention to the timing chain tensioner issue - it's best to check it at 80,000 km, especially for EA111 engines. Always use 5W-40 oil, otherwise oil consumption may become excessive.

Just happened to have the Golf 6 engine files on my computer. The 1.4TSI low-power version is codenamed CAXA, with 131 horsepower @5000rpm and 220N·m @1750-3500rpm; the high-power version CFBA has 150 horsepower @5800rpm and 250N·m @1500-4500rpm. The 1.6L engine CDAA/CLRA delivers 105 horsepower @5600rpm and 155N·m @3500rpm. The GTI's CCZB engine produces 200 horsepower @5100-6000rpm and 280N·m @1700-5000rpm. The domestic versions all have cast iron cylinder blocks, while the imported GTI version features an all-aluminum cylinder block.
