The 2.0TSI EA888/3 or Gen3 was designed to be lighter and more efficient. The engine was released 2012 and features in most modern Audi & Volkswagen engines to 2020. One of the main difference is that it features an integrated watercooled exhaust manifold. Another is that the engine features direct & port injection which has significantly decreased carbon build up.
The Gen3 engines are equipped with Siemens Simos 18.1 electronic engine control unit (ECU) and feature an electronic wastegate with factory boost up to 18 PSI.
These engines are very strong, tuneable and reliable.
Common issues include: Water pump failure, PCV failure & Weak ignition system
As you would come to expect we have a huge range of high quality parts to help you service and maintain your EA888.3 equipped vehicles.
One of the most basic things you can do to increase reliability is to increase the frequency of your oil changes.

View full detailsEvery 10k is a minor service - oil and filter. Do not follow the factory 15K and go 7k for tuned vehicles. Oil is cheap, engines are not!
Every 30k is an intermediate service - oil and filter, cabin filter & air filter, brake fluid flush, remote batteries.
Every 60k is a major service - oil and filter, cabin filter & air filter, remote batteries, brake fluid flush, fuel filter, DSG gearbox oil and filter (unless automatic, manual, tiptronic or multitronic), spark plugs and haldex oil.
Additional: Water pump & timing belt and poly belt on belt driven engines should be done every 60k.
Every 90k is another intermediate service - same as 30k plus a poly belt / accessory belt.

Replace Haldex fluid every 30k rather than 60k, Gearbox oil change at 40k for DSG is advised. Front and rear differential oils are "longlife" but replace every 60k to be safe.

Very quick and accommodating service, had to make a quantity change after submitting order which was acted on within a couple hours, highly recommended
Items arrived quickly and were genuine. Highly recommend
Came well protected and worked perfectly out of the box. Great price for an oem part (was cheaper than aftermarket equivalent) auspost let the team down by taking two days to deliver something scheduled as overnight though.

I’m very impressed with the stage1 tune. It has made a big difference with the car.
I highly recommend taking the leap and I wish I did it sooner.
