Vehicles using CSPA engine list:

Engine CSPA in the Audi R8 5.2 FSI quattro models is generally robust but can face issues like carbon buildup on intake valves due to direct injection. Diagnosis involves checking for rough idling or misfires. Prevention includes using high-quality fuel and periodic intake cleaning. Another concern is the timing chain tensioner wear; listen for rattling noises on cold starts and inspect tensioner condition. Regular oil changes with manufacturer-recommended oil help prevent premature wear. If timing chain issues arise, timely replacement is crucial to avoid severe engine damage. Maintaining cooling system integrity prevents overheating, a critical factor for this high-performance engine.
