Hi 

like the title says

what's the difference between both engines ? 
I saw on some monta Carlo fabia 

some have DPC ENGINE and some had DXD ENGINE 

what's the difference if there is any 

thx 

My understanding (such as it is!!) is that the 1.5litre 4-cylinder DPC motor fitted to Fabia Mk 4 "Monte Carlo" models is referred to (by VW)  as EVO1 and the folllow-on DXD motor is referred to as EVO2. 

 

This 2024 Skoda press release relates to the EVO2 power-plants

and the changes to the 1.5 motor are stated as follows

 

Latest 1.5 TSI with even more advanced ACT+ active cylinder deactivation system

The top-of-the-range 1.5 TSI engine benefits from improvements brought about by the new catalytic converter, which boasts improved efficiency and reaches its operating temperature more quickly. Moreover, it comes with upgraded software for the ACT+ active cylinder deactivation system. This makes the automatic deactivation and re-activation of two of the four cylinders based on power demands even smoother. The range of conditions under which the system is active has been extended as well, thanks to adjustments made to the intake and exhaust valve lift curve for the active cylinders (first and fourth cylinder).

 

Apparently it is quite easy to tell DPC and DXD motors apart, with the former having a snazzy plastic top cover hiding its private parts, while the latter is naked and unashamed.
