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.

Fast delivery and accurate description.
Had big oil leak issue with expensive o-ring style sump plug.
Fitted up genuine plug and washer and oil leaks gone!
After searching online for a replacement actuator for my SQ5 and after receiving a quote from a dealer ($430) Vagparts delivered the actuator to my door within 2 days for only ($65). Could not be more pleased with the product suitability, quality and service.
Awesome transaction sent straight away overnight to Newcastle very good service
