Suction Diesel Injection
Encyclopedia
The SDI engine is a design of naturally aspirated (NA) direct injection diesel engine
developed and produced by Volkswagen Group
for use in cars
and van
s, along with marine engine
(Volkswagen Marine) and Volkswagen Industrial Motor applications.
The SDI brand name (derived from "Suction Diesel Injection" or "Suction Diesel Direct Injection", the latter a translation of the ) was adopted in order to differentiate between earlier and less efficient indirect injection
engines, called SD or "Suction Diesel", which were also produced by Volkswagen Group.
SDI engines are only produced in inline or straight
engine configuration
s; and as they originate from a German manufacture, are designated as either R4 or R5, taken from the . They are available in various displacements
(from 1.7 to 2.5 litre
s), in inline-four (R4 or I4) and inline-five (R5 or I5), in various states of tune, depending on intended application.
The SDI engine is generally utilised in applications where reliability
and fuel economy
are of primary concern. These engines lack any type of forced induction
, hence the use of 'suction' in the title, and as such, their power
output is lower when compared with a similar displacement turbocharged engine. For example, the 2.0 SDI engine fitted to the Volkswagen Golf Mk5
has a peak power output of 55 kW; whereas the same engine in Turbocharged Direct Injection
(TDI) form is rated at 103 kW or 125 kW, depending on specification. However, in the SDI engine, performance at very low engine speeds and when moving off from stationary is often preferable to forced induction engines due to the lack of turbo lag.
The 1.9 SDI engine, fitted to the first generation Škoda Octavia (1U), is particularly popular amongst taxi drivers due to its low fuel consumption and ability to cover large mileages (over 250000 miles (402,335 km)) without requiring major mechanical attention.
Like their related Volkswagen Group Turbocharged Direct Injection
diesel engines, Volkswagen AG requires that motor oil
lubricants for SDI engines must only meet VW505.00, 505.01, 506.00, 506.01, or 507.00 officially approved standards. 'Generic' oil standards such as the American Petroleum Institute
'API', or European Automobile Manufacturers Association
'ACEA' are not recognised, nor approved by VW - so oils bearing these generic approvals must not be used, except when the oil has also been granted one of the specific VW approvals.
Many formulations of motor oils from most brands are now "VW Approved" to the above standards. However, there does exist a few unapproved 'off brands' that print the VW number on the label, effectively 'claiming' to meet the said standard, but hide in small type the word "recommended". Volkswagen AG only carries out in-house testing on motor oils to grant the necessary approvals; if Volkswagen AG, therefore, has not carried out such tests (or if a submitted oil has failed their tests), Volkswagen AG will not grant approval. Volkswagen Germany (and Volkswagen of America) freely publish up-to-date lists of currently approved oils on their respective websites, along with the technical resource, erWin. Volkswagen AG does not permit any independent testing facility to grant their own VW standards.
All SDI-engined models with "LongLife Servicing", "Extended Service Intervals", "ESI", or "WIV", must be run on official 'LongLife' lubricants, namely VW506.00 (for non-PD), VW506.01 (for PD), or the very latest VW507.00. Again, other 'generic' longlife lubricants (or those longlife standards granted by other manufacturers such as General Motors
, BMW
or Mercedes-Benz
) should not be used, unless they also have the official relevant VW LongLife approval.

| engine model | engine displacement Engine displacement Engine displacement is the volume swept by all the pistons inside the cylinders of an internal combustion engine in a single movement from top dead centre to bottom dead centre . It is commonly specified in cubic centimeters , litres , or cubic inches... | engine configuration Engine configuration Engine configuration is an engineering term for the layout of the major components of a reciprocating piston internal combustion engine. These components are the cylinders and crankshafts in particular but also, sometimes, the camshaft.... & diesel fuel system | valvetrain Valvetrain Valvetrain is an all-encompassing term used to describe the mechanisms and parts which control the operation of the valves. A traditional reciprocating internal combustion engine uses valves to control air and fuel flow into and out of the cylinders, facilitating combustion.-Layout:Valvetrain: The... | max. power Power (physics) In physics, power is the rate at which energy is transferred, used, or transformed. For example, the rate at which a light bulb transforms electrical energy into heat and light is measured in watts—the more wattage, the more power, or equivalently the more electrical energy is used per unit... : kW (PS) | rpm Revolutions per minute Revolutions per minute is a measure of the frequency of a rotation.
