Volkswagen Golf Intercooler
The Volkswagen Golf Intercooler is applied to cool the hot compressed air leaving the turbo in order to allow the engine to take in denser air to increase the power available and avoid knock. Located between the intake manifold and the compressor, it discharges heat rapidly, which cuts down intake temperatures that can rise due to exhaust energy driving the turbo. Cold air contains more oxygen, causing the engine management to add extra fuel to achieve a safe increase in horsepower and torque and attain the level of fuel economy Volkswagen desires with small engines. In various model years, there are two predominant designs, the air-to-air and the air-to-liquid design. The air-to-air configuration passes air through cores made of finned aluminum sheets mounted facing the front grille and remains lightweight and simple, popular on standard models of the Golf. Increased performance trims occasionally use an air-to-liquid Intercooler which circulates coolant through a small heat exchanger, increasing the weight but stabilizing the temperature during stop-and-go driving. In operation the lighter air-to-air unit is highly useful at high speed, and the fluid-based unit is resistant to heat soak in situations where airflow is restricted. Both designs allow Volkswagen turbo engines to achieve up to forty percent gains over comparable naturally aspirated motors without additional displacement. Because the hardware does not require any moving parts, routine oil changes and new clean filters are normally sufficient to ensure the Volkswagen Intercooler keeps running successfully for a number of years.

Volkswagen Golf Intercooler Parts and Q&A
- Q: What are the key steps and considerations for inspecting, diagnosing, and replacing the Exhaust Manifold, Intercooler and Turbocharger on Volkswagen Golf?A:The turbocharger is a delicate section prone to severe damages with poor lubrication or foreign material getting into the air intake duct and failure is shown by low engine performance, blue or gray exhaust smoke or peculiar noises. Checks To ensure that there are no problems, examine the intake air duct of the engine to identify looseness or damage, verify that the air intake system is not obstructed by anything, and verify that the air filter is not dirty or that the intercooler is not damaged. Also check system vacuum hoses, wiring, and electrical connectors to be loose or corroded. See that the wastegate actuator connection is not binding, and inspect the exhaust system, lubricating oil supply and drainback lines, and coolant supply and return lines, as well as the damage or restriction. In case a replacement is required, replace the engine oil and filter. Full diagnosis involves special equipment and methods and thus in case of the initial checks failing to detect the issue, visit a dealer service department or a repair facility equipped with the necessary equipment. Removal should be done by warming up the engine and emptying the oil then letting it cool and emptying the cooling system. Unscrew the negative battery cable, loosen the right-front wheel bolts, hoist up the vehicle, and take off the right-front wheel. Take off the splash shield and engine cover undervehicle, and then take care of certain steps according to the types of engines such as removing the heat shields, coolant hose and electrical contacts and finally removing the turbocharger out of the car. The process of installation includes following all fasteners with anti-seize compound, changing seals and gaskets, fasteners, adding oil to the turbocharger, and proper alignment of the exhaust system followed by refilling engine oil and coolant. To replace charge air cooler, it should be raised and then the required parts removed and several steps followed depending on the engine type and bolts must be installed and tightened in a diagonal shape.
