A3 1.9tdi BXE conrod replacement

Post by Wikus85 »

Hi all,

I drive a 2009 audi a3 1.9tdi with a bxe engine. Last week the car cut out while driving and wouldn't start again. I noticed a loud noise from the inside of the engine and I assume that it broke a conrod, I have not started stripping anything yet.

Now that the car is standing I would very much like to make some upgrades to the engine to gain more power (+-200bhp).

Will the std conrods be strong enough?

Has anyone maybe got some guidelines for me to obtain this power from this 1.9tdi bxe engine?

Any help will be highly appreciated.

I suggest you strip first before assuming anything and making plans for big power. You might find damage that stops you from doing anything.
