Volkswagen Tiguan engine size: which one is better. Gasoline or diesel? Unexpected result Which Tiguan to choose

The eternal dispute - diesel or gasoline. What is more profitable in operation? What is more convenient to ride? Which car is cheaper to service? The answer will be given by two Tiguans - a petrol 1.4 TSI and a diesel 2.0 TDI of the same power of 150 hp. Both with all-wheel drive and DSG robotic gearboxes.

*Manufacturer's data.

Expectations and reality

Often, the traction power characteristics declared by the manufacturer do not correspond to the real ones. Why? Typically, the manufacturer takes data from the engine flywheel, not taking into account the losses in the transmission of torque to the wheels. We are not interested in theoretical, but in the most mundane data, - so we go to the dyno.

Our many years of experience show that diesel cars demonstrate higher performance on the stands compared to "paper" ones, while gasoline cars show the opposite. It happened this time as well. Tiguan 1.4 TSI produced 147.3 hp and 236.1 N m (according to the passport - 150 hp and 250 N m), and the diesel 2.0 TDI - 153.5 hp. and 333 Nm (factory data - 150 hp and 320 Nm). Discrepancies with the declared parameters are within the limits of measurement error and decency.

The results of measurements of accelerating dynamics by a professional measuring complex no longer surprised us: the diesel Tiguan turned out to be faster, albeit by a fraction of a second. The advantage is provided not only by the “unaccounted for” horsepower and Newton meters, but also by the transmission. The latest seven-speed DSG robot with two clutches (DQ500) works on a diesel Tiguan, and an earlier six-speed one (DQ250) on a gasoline one. It's not about the "rate of fire" of the boxes, but about cutting gears, which allows the seven-speed robot to keep the diesel speed in a more efficient range.

But here's what's interesting: the gasoline Tiguan in the city is perceived as more driver-friendly. Partly because you don’t expect much agility from a small-capacity turbo engine. Yes, and a light gas pedal gives the effect: a little pressed - rushed. But outside the metropolis, the gasoline fairy tale comes to an end. On fast winding paths, the TDI rides tastier, although it is 120 kg heavier - you even have to release the pedal before cornering, while on a gasoline Tiguan that fades with increasing speed, you drive all the time with the pedal in the floor. Even if you are alien to racing ambitions, you will feel the difference. You feel more confident with a diesel engine and outside the asphalt - it pulls more readily from the very bottom and is less prone to turbo hitches.

Bon appetit!

Diesels are a priori more economical than gasoline engines, the question is how much in our particular case? We drove the Tiguans along calibrated routes of several hundred kilometers each. Imitated urban, suburban and mixed cycles. We did not set the task of achieving a minimum consumption, but tried to calculate the real appetite in absolutely equal conditions. We tried to foresee everything, including the human factor: drivers changed cars in the middle of each segment. Consumption was estimated not according to trip computers, which are often cunning, but by topping up: stocked up with canisters, measuring cups and patience.

Diesel Tiguan predictably won, spending 1.4-2.2 liters less - depending on the driving mode. With the difference in the price of diesel fuel and 95-octane gasoline (respectively 44.1 and 45.7 rubles in Moscow in June), the savings are tangible.

However, not a single combustible. You also need to maintain the equipment. If earlier most diesel cars had a shorter service interval than gasoline cars, now they have caught up. So, both Tiguans are prescribed to undergo maintenance every 15,000 km. At an authorized dealer, planned work for a diesel car up to a mileage of 100,000 km will cost only 8,546 rubles more than for a gasoline one. However, it is enough to fill somewhere with low-quality diesel fuel once - and cleaning the fuel equipment will negate all the fuel savings that we counted above. This is a lottery.

In terms of OSAGO policies and taxes - parity.

Dry residue

So, taking into account the cost of maintenance and fuel on a mileage of 100,000 km, a diesel Tiguan will save 89,164 rubles. Not bad! But all the advantages are crossed out by the price: a diesel car is more expensive by the same hundred thousand rubles. So, if you are planning to buy a Tiguan 2.0 TDI in order to recoup all fuel costs, think thrice: to get to zero, you will have to wind 110,000–130,000 km in ideal conditions - without unscheduled repairs. In some regions, the difference in the price of diesel fuel and 95-octane gasoline reaches two or three rubles - and then diesel can be repaid for 50,000–80,000 km.

A fat point in the economic calculations was put by the CAR-INDEX - a unique indicator of the cost of maintenance from "Behind the wheel". It takes into account operating costs up to a mileage of 70,000 km (for the first three years of operation) - registration and technical inspection fees, transport tax, costs for OSAGO, fuel and scheduled maintenance, and, most importantly, losses in the resale of the car. With a score of 15.38 rubles / km, the gasoline Tiguan won, ahead of the diesel one by 59 kopecks from each kilometer.

However, many buyers choose a diesel modification not because of efficiency. A machine with high low-end torque is more confident off-road and easier to tow a heavy trailer. Pleasant autonomy: Tiguan 2.0 TDI runs on one tank up to 1000 km, and petrol - about 800 km. Finally, the liquidity of a diesel Tiguan in decent condition in the secondary market is higher.

Summary: if you operate the car mainly in the city and change it after three or four years, it makes no sense to overpay for diesel. Do you like long-distance road trips, dragging a trailer, prefer a reserve of traction under the pedal and are not afraid of our frosts? Then diesel is your option.

Kar-index takes into account operating costs for a mileage of 70,000 km: registration and technical inspection fees, transport tax, costs for OSAGO, fuel and scheduled maintenance, as well as losses during the resale of the car.

Diesel legends and myths

  • They work noisily. Louder than gasoline - a fact. But the difference is not so great: there is no hard tractor rattling in the Tiguan's cabin. I drove a couple of friends, acquaintances, and no one noticed that we were driving a diesel car. Only after leading questions did the passengers understand what the catch was. The same applies to vibrations: there are only a little more of them on the steering wheel and seats of the diesel Tiguan, and you only feel the difference at idle.
  • It is easy to run into low-quality diesel fuel. In large cities and at branded gas stations, the risk is minimal. Somewhere in the outback, with no less probability, you can fill in burnt gasoline - it will also hurt a modern highly accelerated turbo engine. But running into summer diesel fuel in the offseason is easy. The problem is solvable. First, many diesel vehicles, including the Tiguan 2.0 TDI, are equipped with heated fuel filters. Secondly, there are anti-gel additives; a bottle for 300 rubles is enough for 200-600 liters of diesel fuel.
  • Diesel cars are cold in winter. This statement is relevant only for fairly old cars. The vast majority of modern vehicles are regularly equipped with additional autonomous and pre-heaters or heaters. Tiguan is no exception, so we had no problems with warming up and maintaining the required temperature during the test, which fell on the last frosty days.

In the Russian automotive market, the line of power units for the Volkswagen Tiguan is presented in five versions. Four of them are gasoline engines, one is diesel. With such a wide choice, it is not surprising that many motorists are interested in which engine is better before buying a mini-crossover.

But, before starting the comparison, it is worth noting: absolutely all Volkswagen Tiguan engines have excellent quality characteristics, but at the same time they are characterized by greater sensitivity to fuel quality. This factor is of particular importance in Russia, where not all gas stations can buy really high-quality fuel.

Important! Even a single refueling with bad gasoline can lead to serious damage to engine systems, in particular this applies to 1.4-liter Volkswagen Tiguan engines.

Petrol engines

The Russian buyer can choose one of four options for gasoline engines. They have a different volume and differ in power characteristics. But the general characteristics are also characteristic of engines:

  • the presence of turbocharging;
  • fuel grade - AI-95;
  • environmental class - Euro-5;
  • the number of cylinders in engines - 4;
  • the number of valves in each cylinder - 4;
  • in-line arrangement of cylinders;
  • unit power system - direct injection into the combustion chamber.

Petrol engine 1.4 l

These compact and fairly economical motors are presented in two power versions: 122 and 155 hp. With. Versions CAXA and CZDB for the 122-horsepower engine, and CZDA for a more powerful version are equipped with a single turbocharger. But there are other engine options, these are CAVA and CAVD, which have a more interesting fuel supply system. Here you can see the turbine and the drive compressor interacting quite favorably with each other.

For engines of 1.4 liters. some non-deliveries are also characteristic, these are - a weak piston group and a lubrication system that works literally at the limit of its capabilities. The intercooler gets dirty pretty quickly due to a rather weak pump, the turbine also cannot boast of sufficient power.

It is for these reasons that Volkswagen Tiguan cars with 1.4 liter engine lines. quite often can be found in the secondary market at an unnaturally low price. But, as already mentioned, in many respects the normal functioning of engine systems depends on the quality of the fuel, oil and coolant used.

A less powerful version of the engine works exclusively with a six-speed gearbox, the maximum engine power is achieved at 5 thousand revolutions per minute. Up to hundreds of kilometers. the car accelerates in just 10.9 s, which is a fairly good indicator for a car with such impressive dimensions.

Important! With 122 hp engines. with., as practice shows, there are fewer problems: they are less prone to destruction or breakdown of the piston group. While more powerful units, starting from 150 horses, have a complex structure and overheat in the warm season, even at average temperatures. The compressor drive clutch together with the pump are consumables that need systematic and extraordinary replacement.

In many ways, the condition of the engine depends on the timely replacement of oils and their high quality. When operating a Volkswagen Tiguan, especially with large engine volumes, drivers must certainly take this factor into account, thereby limiting themselves from costly repairs.

Petrol engine 2.0 l

Two-liter gasoline engines for the Volkswagen Tiguan are presented in two versions:

  • 170 l. With.;
  • 200 l. With.

Naturally, the latter option has the highest level of fuel consumption. This series of engines has a more reliable timing compared to the 1.4 version. Also, Volkswagen Tiguan engines with a volume of 2 liters have excellent traction throughout the entire rev range and ample opportunities for tuning, which can put them an order of magnitude higher in all respects. But there are also typical drawbacks, for example, unsuccessful oil scraper and compression rings. These shortcomings result in:

  • coking of the piston group;
  • increased load on the crankcase ventilation system;
  • permanent throttle contamination.

Diesel unit

For the Russian buyer, only one version of the diesel engine with a volume of 2 liters is available. It is worth noting that they are distinguished by a high level of reliability, if you do not take into account the characteristic shortcomings for absolutely all diesel engines. This is a vulnerable power system, constant contamination of the particulate filter and freezing of fuel at low temperatures.

But on Volkswagen Tiguan engines, nozzles with a piezo function are installed, which have a limited reserve. Because refueling with low-quality fuel can lead to a complete replacement of injectors ok, which will result in no less than 160 thousand rubles. You should not save on the quality of diesel fuel, and a 2.0-liter diesel engine will serve the owner of the Volkswagen Tiguan for many years.

This engine has low fuel consumption, therefore it is a fairly economical option. Maximum engine power is reached at 4200 rpm. Torque - 320 Nm. The turbocharged engine is equipped with an air intercooler system. Acceleration to hundreds of kilometers is carried out in 10.7 s. The maximum speed is 182 km/h. The diesel unit works in conjunction with an automatic six-speed gearbox.

Why choose Volkswagen Tiguan

Statistics show that the European compact SUV is the best in its class today. This is evidenced by the reviews of real owners, critics and sales figures. Tiguan left behind such serious competitors as Toyota Rav-4 and Nissan Qashqai.

Among the main advantages of the Volkswagen Tiguan are:

  • excellent handling;
  • convincing dynamics;
  • economical fuel consumption, especially with 1.4 liter units and a diesel engine;
  • quality assembly;
  • a wide range of motors;
  • reliable paintwork and the presence of plastic thresholds that protect the outer layer of the body from scratches and significant damage;
  • the quality of the chassis and the brake system is at the highest level. Even if wheel bearings and silent blocks are replaced, the cost of repair will not be prohibitive, since these parts are inexpensive. The resource of these consumables is 100-150 thousand kilometers;
  • excellent external characteristics and comfortable interior.

Naturally, the buyer can choose for himself what engine size of the Volkswagen Tiguan to choose. This should be guided by such preferences as the desired dynamics of the car and its efficiency.

Important! For constant pastime in traffic jams, you should not choose a 1.4-liter engine due to lower dynamic performance. Therefore, for many, the most successful alternative is a diesel unit, for which the problem of fuel freezing is not as relevant as for most other cars due to the presence of autonomous heating.

Transmission

When choosing the engine size of the Volkswagen Tiguan, you should also pay attention to the transmission. All variants of the car supplied to the Russian market have a six-speed gearbox. All versions of engines, except for the 1.4-liter, are paired with automatic transmissions.

Hydromechanical automatic transmissions are reliable, but the disadvantages of the development include the conditions of extreme overheating in which the gearbox units have to work. But this problem concerns not only Volkswagen, but also other cars equipped with hydromechanics.

Volkswagen Tiguan engine in the Russian version of the crossover it is an in-line 4-cylinder engine with a 16-valve timing mechanism (DOHC). The engine range of Volkswagen Tiguan power units today is a set of gasoline turbo engines with a working volume of 1.4 and 2 liters of various capacities, plus there is a 2-liter diesel engine.

Tiguan 1.4 TSI engines with a capacity of 122 and 150 horsepower are also installed on the Jetta sedan. Their detailed technical description is offered. We will talk about more powerful power units with a working volume of 2 liters. This is a Tiguan 2.0 TSI engine with a power of 170 hp. and 200 hp Actually structurally, the engines are similar, the difference is in the performance of the turbine. For a power unit of 170 hp they put a BorgWarner K03 turbine on a 200 hp engine. put the KKK K04 turbine. Basically, the device of a 2 liter Volkswagen Tiguan engine of different capacities is identical.

So 2.0TSI, it is an in-line 4-cylinder, 16-valve engine with a cast-iron cylinder block and an aluminum cylinder head. IN timing belt is worth. In the event of a belt break, the valve bends without fail. Hydraulic compensators provide a normal thermal clearance in the valve mechanism. There are phase shifters on the intake shaft, direct fuel injection, directly into the combustion chamber. This engine has a lot of modifications with a capacity of 170 to 265 horsepower and is installed on various models of Volkswagen, Audi, Seat, Skoda.

Perhaps the most economical Diesel Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI with a common rail injection system, which also has a large torque of 320 Nm.

cylinder head Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0L TDI diesel engine with common rail injection system is made of aluminum and has a design with a cross-flow of gases, two intake and two exhaust valves per cylinder. Valves are located vertically and are directed downwards. Two camshafts are located on top and are connected by a gear train with a spur gear that has a built-in gap compensator between the gear teeth. The timing is driven from the crankshaft using a toothed belt and a toothed pulley on the exhaust camshaft. The valves are actuated by low friction roller levers equipped with hydraulic compensators.

This motor uses an interesting timing drive scheme. The belt synchronizes the rotation of one camshaft with the crankshaft. And the second camshaft is synchronized with the first due to the gears on the camshafts. Further more detailed Specifications Tiguan 2.0 TDI

The first generation Volkswagen Tiguan crossover in our country received a 2-liter TSI engine as the most powerful power unit. The two-liter turbocharged Tiguan engine in the Russian modification develops 170 hp. Which is an excellent result for a small crossover, and given the torque of 280 Nm, it’s not a shame to go on real off-road. A more powerful modification of the same engine produces 200 horses!

The well-known German quality is sometimes also upsetting. And, according to the reviews of many or even the majority, the purchase of a Volkswagen Tiguan, not only with mileage, but even from the factory, became such a disappointment. People were waiting for something eternal from the German manufacturer, but it turned out the opposite. Therefore, in this article, all significant weaknesses and shortcomings of the German Volkswagen Tiguan, which every future buyer of this car should be aware of, will be announced.

Weaknesses of the 1st generation Volkswagen Tiguan

  • Engine;
  • Valve train chain;
  • "Robot";

Now more….

One of the most serious vulnerabilities of the Tiguan is, oddly enough, the engine, namely the 1.4 liter volume. If, for example, there are fewer complaints about other engines (in particular, gasoline 2.0 and diesel), then there are serious complaints about 1.4 TSI. The fact is that the 1.4 liter engine has serious design flaws in terms of calculating the reliability of the pistons. Therefore, primarily due to the high thermal load, the piston group quickly collapses. There were cases that these problems arose even when the car was under warranty and this malfunction was eliminated, but the majority of Tiguan car owners encountered piston destruction after the warranty period expired. As a result, the owners had to spend a lot of money on repairs. Therefore, before buying this car, you should know about it and draw the right conclusions. Separately, we can say about diesel engines. The weakest side of these engines is the so-called particulate filter. The point is that it quickly clogs with frequent city driving and does not have time to regenerate (self-clean).

It is equally important to know about one more serious weakness of the Tiguan, which can bring serious financial losses to the owners of these cars. This is a quick failure of the timing chain. And this applies to both 1.4 liters. engine, and two-liter. In general, if you remember, there was a whole epic about timing chains. The manufacturer at first refused to admit that the chains were defective, but in the end, due to mass discontent, he had to do this and carry out an analysis and a set of measures to prevent such defects. This was explained by the fact that the supplied chains were produced on equipment with heavy wear. From which the resulting defective edges of the chains, with the engine running, caused rapid wear of the chain as a whole. Later, this problem was solved, but there are still cars on which the mileage is low, and the chain is still factory. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to this nuance before buying, since bent engine valves due to chain stretching and failure are not a pleasant pleasure.

Among all the troubles of Tiguan`a, one more thing can be distinguished - this is a robotic DSG box. Its resource, with proper operation and maintenance, does not exceed, as a rule, an average of 100 thousand km. and in general the DSG robot is not famous for its durability on other makes and models of cars. Therefore, it is worth knowing about this, especially for the future buyer of the Volkswagen Tiguan. Therefore, the ideal option would be - this is the choice of a Tiguan without a DSG box. Any other, but not DSG.

Electric power steering.

Electric power steering is one of the diseases of the Volkswagen Tiguan. The EUR on these vehicles brought a lot of problems to their owners. On many cars, there have been cases of failure of the electric power steering, both on the spot and on the move. This was mostly due to a software glitch. In the event of a failure of the EUR in motion, flashing the unit did not help, and the EUR had to be completely changed. Basically, this malfunction made itself felt during the warranty period of the car, but the future owner simply needs to know about the said weak point.

Suspension bearing of the cardan shaft.

The propeller shaft outboard bearing also worried Tiguan owners. This is not to say that this is a massive problem, but when buying a car, you should pay attention to it, since its cost and replacement can significantly hit the pocket of the future owner. It is also possible to indirectly determine bearing wear when driving along a characteristic hum, but it is better to check its condition at a service station.

The main disadvantages of the Volkswagen Tiguan 2007-2016 release

  1. Weak operation of the stove in winter;
  2. Small trunk volume for a crossover;
  3. There is no possibility of full lifting of the wipers;
  4. Long warm-up of the 1.4 liter engine. in winter;
  5. Weak paintwork;
  6. Small side mirrors;
  7. The impossibility of replacing the “dokatka” with a full-size wheel;
  8. Ergonomic miscalculations.

Conclusion.

Based on the foregoing, we can conclude that for such a cost of this model it was possible to install parts, components and assemblies there more reliably than they were actually installed. It should be understood before buying that the failure of any element of the machine, the purchase and replacement will cost the owner a very round sum.

P.S. Dear owners of these cars! We kindly ask you to indicate the noticed shortcomings of the Tiguan that you identified during operation.
