Does the 2019 GTI use the BUDACK cycle?

[GroceryGTIer]

I ask because I ran across the below post, which would explain the change in oil type. Anyone know for certain?

VW says the new BUDACK cycle engine's oil pump was specifically designed to run only 0w20 in their tech videos and says running thicker oil in this engine will cause damage. thats coming from from VW mouth

No

You know that the oil pump of the 19s is the same?

Is that a question or statement?

question... I'm reading it as Jacob saying no the 2019s doesn't use one, so i was asking him as a confirmation.

The 19 doesn’t have budack cycle, idk about the oil pump.

You might be to tell when the HP drops. I'm reasonably sure it will be on the sticker. Check out a new Tiguan to see.

The 2015-2017 oil pump does not fit the 7.5 (2018+) models according to ECS
I can’t even find the 2019 GTI oil pump part #

Pump is different on 19s.

Tiguan engine runs on Budack cycle.

The current MK2 Tiguan has the EA888 Gen3b which is a budack cycle engine. The MK7 GTI is the EA888 Gen3 so far through all model years.

2019 oil pump has one more tooth on the drive gear.

That’s it? So not the same as Tiguan then?

What oil viscosity is speced for the Tiguan? If 0w-20, they might be the same, you'd have to check part numbers.
