Disadvantages of the Audi CWGD engine
Here, we discuss potential issues with this engine that do not currently exist.
First, costly maintenance: fuel and oil (VW50400, SAE 0W-20).
Second, the turbine in the block collapse is installed in accordance with the plan, with the hot side inside.
Thirdly, the intake manifold cannot be changed separately because it is integrated into the cylinder head.
