JE Pistons Introduces New FSR Pistons for 1.8T, 2.0T FSI, and 2.0T TSI Engines

JE’s new forged pistons for the Volkswagen 1.8T, 2.0T FSI, 2.0T TSI feature dedicated forged-side-relief designs for an immense boost in strength. They are specifically engineered for high-boost, high-horsepower applications and feature JE’s groundbreaking Perfect Skirt coating for reduced friction, quieter operation, and ultimate, 2618 strength.

What is a Forged Side Relief?

JE’s new forged side relief design is an evolution of previous full-round forgings that offers excellent strength with less weight. By forging the pin towers closer together and using FEA testing to incorporate rigid internal bracing, a shorter, lighter wrist pin can be used, significantly reducing rotating mass. This is paired with double-broach pin-oilers to improve oil flow to the wrist pins.

Revolutionary New Skirt Coating Standard on All VW FSR Pistons

All Volkswagen FSR pistons will come standard with JE’s patented Perfect Skirt coating. Unlike any coating before it, Perfect Skirt is compressible and allows a 2618 piston to install with piston-to wall clearance close to that of an OEM cast piston. What does that mean? Perfect Skirt–coated pistons will run quieter, last longer (due to vastly reduced skirt wear) and won’t register any false knock signals. The coating also bolsters lubricity, reducing friction and increasing horsepower!

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

More 3.0-Liter TDI Settlement Details Expected by January 31

Volkswagen and the TDI Plaintiff’s Steering Committee were in court today for another status conference following the agreement in principal reached earlier this week. Little new information was given at the conference held before Judge Charles Breyer today, but the court ordered the parties to develop a formal settlement agreement, class action notices, and a class notice plan by January 31, 2017. For now, though, owners still don’t know how much to expect in compensation. Elizabeth Cabraser, lead Counsel for the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee reaffirmed in a statement today that the compensation would be “substantial.” The potential cost to Volkswagen is widely reported to exceed $1 billion, though, with an additional $225 million going into an environmental trust to help offset excess emissions. Buy back offers are still only expected for the oldest 20,000 of the roughly 80,000 VW Group vehicles sold in America with the 3.0-liter TDI engine. Those vehicles are mostly SUVs, like ...
