    With this engines all owners should pay attention to what oil they use. VW admited that the low pressure turbocharger have some sort of design failure resulting in poor lubrication and cooling of the low press. turbocharger shaft.
    Another important thing on this types of engines, when you lose coolant, 95% of the time, EGR cooler gets damaged (internally) and exhaust gases mix with coolant. Most likely in this cases you think it's a cylinder gasket problem, since coolant gets out of reservoir with pressure.
    Other than that, bulletproof engines even with a nice tune. Don't worry about DSG's on this model, there weren't cases of damages as far as i know.

    Very interesting results. I’m running a 2019 transit custom 130hp, going to upgrade to 170 or 185hp soon hopefully. It would be interesting to see a tuning video on one of these. Sporty Transit van are definitely becoming more popular.
    Thanks for the video,

    To many extras over old engines not to be, you can't add parts and expect more reliability. Metal parts are probably stronger due to increasing tech, but engine bays today and 20 years ago are like space shuttles

    I have one of the last t5.1 114 hp bluemotion for 5-6 years now.
    Tuned to 175 hp its not superfast or have loads of torque but rides good for a van is good on fuel and cheap in insurance because its only a 114 on paper.
    Its been super reliable so far nothing wrong with it but only done 60 000 miles...
    Aparantley the gearbox isnt superstrong manual 5 speed thats why they did not give it loads of torque for reliability....

If its got a bad number, i should still swap it over for a recommended egr unit as a preventative measure if the compression is still good right?

      they could do a bit better explanation than just saying it is normal. but yes it is like that on almost every single one of these. a little depending on how the car is used, if you just do short trips and such all the time it will have more of the mayonnaise, it is because condensation builds up in the oil filler pipe.

    Hey I'm getting close to buying my first car being the Volvo s60 D3 167hp 2L. have you guys tuned any D3,4,5 engines from Volvo? If so can you estimate how much power gain I would get if I got it tuned by you? Celtictuning seems to say 215hp which would be excellent, but I would rather get my car tuned by you guys. especially seeing some TDI builds on your channel.
