The engine of the 2018 Touran is a Volkswagen engine produced at the Lou Tang Engine Factory in Jiading District, Shanghai. The engine model of the 2018 Touran is EA211, with a maximum horsepower of 110, a maximum power of 81kw, and a maximum torque of 155nm. For daily maintenance of the 2018 Touran engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of the 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 malfunctions, the oil should be changed regularly according to usage conditions, and the oil level should be kept moderate; When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is clogged 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 and carry contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination; 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 walls, mixing with metal powder from component wear to form sludge. When the amount is small, it remains suspended in the oil; when the amount is large, it precipitates from the oil, clogging filters and oil passages, 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 been driving an 18-year-old Touran for several years. It's equipped with the EA211 1.4 TSI engine, the turbocharged version, delivering around 150 horsepower and approximately 250 Nm of torque. It's quite comfortable to drive in the city, with quick and responsive starts, and the combined fuel consumption is about 7 liters per 100 km, dropping to around 6 liters on the highway. The engine responds swiftly, has good power for climbing hills, and is suitable for long family trips. It's reliable and not expensive to maintain, just requiring regular oil and filter changes, with checks every 5,000 km. For the turbo part, be careful not to overload it to avoid high-temperature damage. Overall, it's a classic Volkswagen configuration, perfectly matched to the Touran's size, sturdy and durable, with no major issues.
