Hello All

Yet another q from me on a topic, this time not specifically related to Octavia

A friend of a friend has a 2009 Audi A4 1.8 T FSI manual saloon

I checked the horsepower, torgue etc of this Audi and it seems to be the exact same as the 1.8 TSI in the Octavia

And when I speak of the 1.8 TSI Octavia, I mean the 2010 facelifted model

I know the 1.8 TSi Octavia has a timing CHAIN instead of a timing BELT which is good

&--#62; Does anybody know if the Above Audi A4 has a timing belt or chain

&--#62; Is the Audi 1.8 T FSI more a less the same engine as the Octavia 1.8 TSI but just a different name

I know this is not an Audi forum but just thought id ask this question anyways

It's the same engine.

The whole VAG group share engines. The oly difference being the special models like S3 and Edition 30 Gols have a slightly different 2.0T.

thanks for reply, all very confusing with the tsi, tfsi, fsi etc.

So the 2009 Audi A4 1.8 T FSI manual saloon definitely has a chain then ?

As the friend of a friend is saying its a belt

Definitely a chain. They are the same engine, just badged diferently.

Just don't tell the Audi salesman

Just don't tell the Audi salesman

Out of interest, I actually rang an Audi garage during lunch ( about a 2009 1.8 TFSI manual ) and inquired and the feckin saleman told me it was a belt

What the hell is wrong with these salemen, they dont know their stuff at all !!

Audi - four rings on the bonnet; four grand on the price!

Are you guys sure it not a belt? What's the Audi's engine code?

I have an Octavia 1.8 TSI... it is a Chain not a belt...
