Self Study Program 920223 – The Audi 4.0L V8 TFSI Engine with Twin Turbochargers
VAG SSP 920223 . The Audi family of V engines has been expanded. The new 4.0-liter V8 TFSI engine is the first 8-cylinder gasoline engine with twin turbocharging and FSI technology. Based on the 4.2L V8 FSI normally aspirated engine of the 2012 Audi A8, capacity was modified to further enhance fuel efficiency.
Additional fuel savings have been realized through cylinder deactivation. By deactivating four cylinders in various load and operating conditions, the engine uses less fuel.
Limited space in the engine compartment was overcome by mounting both turbochargers and the charge air cooler in the inner V of the engine. Referred to as an HSI (Hot Side In) arrangement, special monitoring ensures that under hood temperatures are kept within a safe and efficient range.
The broad performance spectrum of this engine is intended for use in other Audi models and other brands in the VW Group.
The 4.0L V8 TFSI engine uses Audi modular efficiency technologies, for example, in the design of the recuperation system and in friction reduction. High-end technologies, such as plate honing, are employed during manufacturing at the Audi factory in Györ, Hungary.
