Checkfor Tming Chain Stretch on EA888 Gen2 2.0 TFSI There are instructions on youtube for checking timing chain stretch via VCDS for TSI engines. It's Engine module, group 93 Phase position intake Bank 1. It has been proven over and over that cars in the 5-8 degree range drop to 0-2 range after timing change. Audi and Ivehad two 2.0 tfsi, one B8.5 and one B8. The B8 had 270.000KM on it, without any real big problems. Under «audi limit» oil consumption. My current B8.5 has 145.000KM on it without any problems either. Just swapped out some connectors for the coils since they become brittle over time. Both were quattro with S-tronics though. Hiall, I did a lot of research, so far I can see that timing chain stretch is more of an issue on previous models than the B8 S4, but I did see some people on here getting the P0016 and P0018 which indicates either a timing chain stretch, a sensor issue, or the tensionners being bad enough to cause even further chain stretch.
