This comprehensive 64-page PDF file is the official Volkswagen Group Self-Study Program (SSP 117) covering Part II of the vehicle presentation for the Škoda Karoq. Unlike a standard owner’s manual or a step-by-step repair guide, VAG Self-Study Programs are internal training materials designed to educate master technicians and dealership staff on the complex engineering, design logic, and new technologies introduced in a specific model. Released in September 2017 to coincide with the Karoq’s launch, this specific workbook focuses intensely on the compact SUV’s powertrain and mechanical systems.
This technical manual covers the following key engineering topics in detail:
- Modular Powertrain Strategy: An overview of how the Karoq integrates into the MQB platform’s engine lineup, specifically focusing on the advanced turbocharged, direct-injection engines designed to meet strict EU6 emission standards.
- EA211 Petrol Engines in Detail: A deep technical dive into the architecture of the petrol engines. It thoroughly examines the base 1.0 TSI (85 kW) three-cylinder engine. Crucially, it provides highly detailed schematics and operational logic for the advanced 1.5 TSI (110 kW) engine, explaining the mechanics of its Active Cylinder Technology (ACT) and its complex electronically controlled water pump with dual ball valves designed for precise thermal management.
- EA288 Diesel Engines: A comprehensive look at the architecture of the TDI diesel engines offered in the Karoq. It details the fuel injection systems, the turbocharging layout, and the complex exhaust gas treatment systems required to meet modern diesel emissions standards.
- Transmission Systems: An engineering overview of the gearboxes paired with these modular engines. It explains the power flow and integration of the standard 6-speed manual gearbox and the sophisticated 7-speed Direct Shift Gearbox (DSG) dual-clutch automatic transmission.
Whether you are a professional VAG technician needing to understand the cooling circuit logic on the 1.5 TSI, an automotive engineering student studying modular engine design, or an advanced DIY enthusiast wanting a deeper understanding of your Karoq’s mechanical DNA, this Self-Study Program is an invaluable and highly technical resource.
