Engines

By type of structure - it is exactly the same as the previous, in-line 4-cylinder engine with a transverse arrangement. Fuel consumption in the city is 11-11.5 liters, and on the highway a little more than 6.
And the last engine of 3.6 liters haspower 300 l. with. This allows him to accelerate to a hundred in 5.5 seconds. The maximum speed is limited to 250 km / h.

In general, the engines are quite reliable, but, toUnfortunately, some have some problems. So, reviews of the owners of the Volkswagen Passat CC with 1.8-liter engines indicate that this unit has problems with increased oil consumption. This is a very common problem and it can be connected to any factors. For example, very often the cause may be the crankshaft oil seal, in which the cuff is simply exfoliated.
Also often cause pistons withoil scraper rings. On them the deposit is formed and subsequently coking occurs. Perhaps the main reason is the oil separator itself, which cannot cope with the increased amount of oil in crankcase gases. Because of this, the engine begins oil "starvation", which leads to a number of breakdowns of other elements, for example, balancing shafts, bearings, etc.
На двигателях 2,0 литра, судя по отзывам, the most often break-down valve seals, which is formed of soot. If time does not notice a malfunction, then you can get to the expensive repair. Also sometimes there are problems with the pump.
As for the 3.6-liter engines, they are the most reliable and devoid of most problems. The most important thing is to change consumables, oil in time and do maintenance according to the regulations.

Chassis
Concluding technical reviewVolkswagen Passat CC, it is worth saying a few words about the chassis of the car. Regardless of the type of drive, and there were two of them - front and full (only on 3.6-liter engines), the car was equipped with an independent front suspension, and an independent multi-link at the rear.
On the road, the car is very stable.Management is at a high level. Suspension also works very well, smoothing out all the bumps and holes.
