What is the problem with the 1. TSI engine?
What was the 1. TSI engine issue? The issues with the 1. TSI engine occurred when the car was started from cold. It mainly affected 1. TSI manual cars with software issues creating odd juddering and a ‘kangarooing’ effect when moving away at slow speeds. The TSI improves on issues found in the TFSI, making it the superior engine. It has certain modifications, such as a different downpipe and a new PCV system, meant to correct the older TFSI engine issues. Although an improvement, the TSI engine still has its own issues.
