Whether it’s a matter of better fuel economy, higher engine output or lower exhaust emissions - the demands on engines are constantly increasing.

This presents our engineers with new tasks, with the result that the Volkswagen engine range is constantly growing.

Example: weight saving

During development, the weight of the new 1.4-ltr. 16V 55kW engine was reduced by about 10 kg by modifying its design.

This self-study programme explains the technical innovations in our engine range using the 1.4-ltr. 16V 55kW engine as an example.

Apart from minor differences in the engine mechanics, the 1.6-lr. 16V 88kW engine for the Polo GTI will have these new features, too.

196_168

These differences arise out of the various technical demands on the engines and are described in this Self-Study Programme.

Introduction

One of a “new generation”

The 1.4-ltr. 16V 55kW engine is the first of a new generation of engines featuring roller-type cam followers.

It is fundamentally different from

the 1.4-ltr. 16V 74kW engine with bucket tappets.

The main differences are:

-the die cast aluminium crankcase

-the cylinder head, where only the existing valve clearance and angle have been adopted.

New and advanced developments include:

the plastic intake manifold

the cylinder head and camshaft housing

valves are activated by roller-type cam followers

the crankcase is made of die cast aluminium

the duocentric oil pump

the exhaust manifold

the Magneti Marelli 4AV engine management system

196_068

The overall effects of these design modifications are:

-significant reduction in fuel consumption,

-performance on a par with predecessor models,

-weight savings and

-compliance with the more stringent exhaust gas

limit values now in effect in Germany.

The knock control lets you run the 1.4- ltr. and 1.6-ltr. engines on RON 91 and RON 95 fuel respectively. This may result in a slight loss of power and torque.

Engine Mechanics

The plastic intake manifold

consists of three component parts which are welded together. The material is made of highgrade polyamide which is resistant to temperatures of up to 140°C for short periods of time.

The use of plastics has made it possible to keep the weight of the intake manifold down to three kilograms. As a result, the intake manifold is roughly 36% lighter than a comparable intake manifold made of aluminium.

The plastic intake manifold also has a very smooth surface, and this improves the induced air flow.

The following components are mounted in the plastic intake manifold:

-the injectors,

-the fuel distributor,

-the throttle valve control unit and

-the intake manifold pressure sender and the intake air temperature sender.

The air filter housing is secured to the plastic intake manifold by two screws.

The max. permissible tightening torque is 3.5Nm.

196_071

An aluminium intake manifold is used for the 1.6-ltr. 16V 88kW engine.

It has been adapted to the engine’s requirements.

Valve gear

is accommodated in the cylinder head and camshaft housing.

The camshaft housing is by and large

identical to the cylinder head cover which was previously used as standard.

What’s new is that the camshafts are now inserted into the housing. The bearing covers and camshaft housing limit the axial clearance of the camshafts.

The camshafts run in three bearings.

The valve assembly comprising valves, rollertype cam followers and hydraulic support elements

is located in the cylinder head.

Cylinder head

The gasket between the camshaft housing and the cylinder head is in the form of a fluid seal.

Do not apply the sealant too thickly, since this may cause excess sealant to enter the oil drillings and damage the engine.

Engine Mechanics

Valve activation

With this engine generation, the valves are activated via a roller-type cam follower with a hydraulic

support element.

Advantages:

-less friction

-fewer moving masses.

Conclusion:

Less engine power is required to drive the camshafts.

196_010

Design

The roller-type cam follower comprises a sheetmetal moulding acting as a lever and a cam roll with a roller bearing.

The cam follower is clipped onto the support element and seated on the valve.

The hydraulic support element has the same function as the hydraulic bucket tappet. It serves as a hydraulic valve lifter and support for the roller-type cam follower.

8

The lubrication system

Lubricant flows between the hydraulic support element and the roller-type cam follower as well as between the cams and the cam roll along an oil duct integrated in the support element.

Oil is injected into the cam roll through a drilling in the roller-type cam follower.

Oil

Cam roll

 

Lubricant duct

Function

The support element serves as a pivot for the rol- ler-type cam follower. The cam contacts the cam roll and presses the lever down. The lever in turn activates the valve.

A high valve lift is achieved with a relatively small cam due to the fact that the leverage between the cam roll and support element is smaller than between the valve and support element.

196_009

196_011

It is not possible to inspect the hydraulic support elements.

Engine Mechanics

The hydraulic support element

serves as a support for the roller-type cam follower and hydraulic valve lifter.

Design

The support element is connected to the oil circuit. It comprises the following elements:

-a piston,

-a cylinder and

-a piston spring.

Hydraulic valve lifter

 

 

If valve backlash occurs, the piston spring forces

 

 

the piston out of the cylinder until the cam roll

 

Valve clearance

makes contact with the cam. When the piston is

 

pressed out of the cylinder, the oil pressure in the

 

 

lower oil chamber drops.

 

 

The one-way-valve opens and surplus oil flows

 

 

into the oil chamber.

 

 

The one-way-valve closes when the pressure

 

 

between the lower and upper oil chambers has

 

 

been equalised.

 

 

196_016

Valve lift

When the cam contacts the cam roll, the pressure inside the lower oil chamber rises because the oil here cannot be compressed. The piston cannot be forced any further into the cylinder. Thus, the support element acts as a rigid support for the roller-type cam follower.

The inlet or exhaust valve opens.

196_017

The toothed belt drive

The toothed belt drive is divided into a main drive and a connecting drive on account of the small overall width of the of the cylinder head.

Main drive

The coolant pump and the intake camshaft are driven by the crankshaft by means of a toothed belt integrated in the main drive. An automatic tension pulley and two deflection pulleys reduce toothed belt fluctuation.

The connecting drive

is located outside the cylinder head.

The exhaust camshaft is driven by the

intake camshaft by means of a second toothed belt integrated in the connecting drive.

Again, an automatic tension pulley reduces toothed belt fluctuation.
