A New Chapter - Skoda Singapore

just googled scala and it looks good

 

wonder when it will reach our shore

 

Probably by late 2019 to early 2020.

[Contrarian]

From superb manual, A2 adjust the tilt. Maybe different from octy then.

 

Thanks, the controls are the same for an electronic seat Octavia. Mine has a manual seat and doesn't have a seat pan tilt control.

What abt the Oct RS? Direct and Port injected?

 

you may need to do some reading yourself to appreciate the car, as there are questions thats was already asked previously

The new EA888 engines that come in the Passat, Beetle, and old-body Jetta, as well as the new Tiguan, have some pretty neat features. Some of them are to make more power, and some–like the 2.0-liter Tiguan’s modified Miller-cycle–are to boost fuel economy.

There are electric wastegates, a lighter cylinder block, plastic oil pans, thinner cylinder walls, aluminum fasteners, and more. But the coolest on the third-generation of the engine is the integrated exhaust manifold with liquid cooling.

Why on earth would an automaker want to cool the exhaust? Especially on a turbocharged engine? This is how (and why) it works.

https://www.vwvortex.com/features/direct-injection-work/

Direct injection. Just about every car has it now, and those that don’t probably will in the next few years. It can add power, reduce emissions, and is a big part of why just about everybody is offering tiny turbo engines that make big horsepower. But how does it work? And why does my dealer want to blast walnut shells into my engine?

Electronic fuel injection works by using solenoid-controlled nozzles that precisely meter how much fuel goes into the intake of the engine. But while they can be very precise in how much fuel comes out, they aren’t so great at deciding where it goes.

That’s because they spray the fuel into the intake manifold air stream. Once in that air stream, it can go just about anywhere. Into the cylinder you want, into the cylinder you don’t, or it can even form a puddle in the manifold. That can be catastrophic, though it’s definitely not common. But that was the best automakers could do. The fuel needed that airflow and the space of the manifold to mix with the air. Fuel that’s mixed into as a vapor combusts. Liquid fuel doesn’t.

Ideally, you want the fuel to be injected as close to the actual cylinder as possible. But the heat of combustion and packaging constraints meant that somewhere in the intake manifold was the best automakers could do. In a gas engine, at least.

That’s because diesel engines used something different. Diesels don’t have spark plugs. And they need very well mixed and atomized fuel because the only things making the fire happen are heat and compression. Which is really just more heat. So for decades, big diesel engines have had fuel injectors where the spark plug used to go. Fuel was delivered at up to 36,000 psi. Compare that to a carburetted car at less than 10 psi and a conventional gasoline fuel injected vehicle at around 70 psi.

The octavia RS245 engine is similar to the golf 7.5 gti performance, should be DLBA, and not CHHA. As CHHA develops 169kw, compared to the 180kw that is specced for the performance pack.

A little bit more googling on the DLBA.

Sorry, only direct injection for the RS245 DLBA.

 

How to tell ah? Remove the engine cover and look at the intake manifold.

 

Look for something like this, if not there, then sorry, direct injection only.

Accordingly to a skoda sale guy, it will be in showroom around june. He said it is already with LTA for testing. Dunno true or not.

Bro, the article mentioned nothing abt the design of the EA888 in the Octavia RS. I wanna know if the engine is direct injected or dual injected? Can any VW guru advise on this?

A little bit more googling on the DLBA.

Sorry, only direct injection for the RS245 DLBA.

Installing an oil catch can helps trap blow-by.. Did u install one on ur RS?

I have not even made my first visit to VW for the complimentary oil change.

Do you think I should install one, and let them mark me?

 

I am in deep contemplation to do my full suite of mods, go stage 1, then drive in for my first oil change.

Am 10000km away from making that decision.

I really do not want to sit at the VW service counter there and fill out their mod declaration form, which will extend my 3 hour oil change to a full damn day.

video shows the engine quite similar looking, could the port injection be similar>? 

[adrian140180]

The EA888 gen 3 has a CJXC variant, that has both port, and direct injections.

You see your video, there are port injectors at the intake manifold.

 

If you can find the same port injectors on the RS245 intake manifold, tadah you got dual injection!

 

https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/26sAAOSwsW9Y3P0P/s-l1600.jpg

 

 

Below pic is from an RS245, with the engine cover removed.

Spot any bridges on the intake manifold where the injectors should be?

Wah here becoming technical discussion.. so in depth and detail..

[adrian140180]

The simple story to summarize everything.

 

1) RS245 spec sheet indicates both direct, and port injection. https://cdn.skoda-storyboard.com/2017/06/TD-OCTAVIA-COMBI-RS-245-en.pdf

 

2) Physical engine indicates otherwise, no port injection bridge visible on intake manifold. https://data.motor-talk.de/data/galleries/0/18/4105/78052678/209063826-w988-h741.jpg

 

3) So if there is a port injection bridge, what will it look like? The intake manifold will look like this. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/26sAAOSwsW9Y3P0P/s-l1600.jpg

 

 

Below facts we know, to substantiate all findings.

 

1) RS245 is a 180kw EN888gen3.

2) If you go by EN888gen3 CHHA, then it would only be 169kw.

3) The EN888gen3 DLBA is 180kw, which is the same used on the GTI performance pack.

4) The RS245 is using the same GTI performance pack engine.
