Engine Mechanics Cylinder Block The cylinder block assembly consists of three components; an aluminum cylinder block, upper and a lower end brackets. The aluminum cylinder block provides a significant weight reduction for the 90° cylinder banks. The high tensile cast iron end brackets give the assembly a rigid platform.
Page 9
Engine Mechanics End Bracket The upper and lower end brackets are manufactured from high tensile cast iron. The upper and lower portions of the end brackets use a press fit; and 4 bolts per main journal to provide the crankshaft with a strong and rigid structure to contain the high combustion forces of the diesel engine.
Engine Mechanics Cylinder Head The V10-TDI engine has two aluminium-alloy cylinder heads. The intake and exhaust ports are arranged according to the crossflow principle; that is, the intake and exhaust ports are located on opposite sides of the cylinder head. This arrangement provides good gas exchange and thus good cylinder filling.

Engine Mechanics Balancing Vibration Damper To attain low vibration running of the engine, the The vibration damper reduces the rotational moments of inertia must be balanced. vibrations of the crankshaft. It is filled with a silicone oil. For this, 6 counterweights are attached to the crankshaft.
Page 14
Engine Mechanics Auxiliary Drive and Components The auxiliary drive is located on the flywheel side. The camshafts and the auxiliary components are driven by the crankshaft by helical gears. The advantage of a gear drive over a toothed belt is that larger forces can be transferred while the size of the gears remains the same as the sprockets used for toothed belt.

The two tooth mesh provides a larger bearing surface that is stronger and steering pump and air conditioning compressor.
Page 18
Engine Mechanics Shackle Joint The camshafts located in the cylinder head are driven by gears located in brackets called a shackle joint. The shackle joint is used to compensate for the end play of the gears and expansion of the aluminium cylinder heads and cylinder block throughout the entire operating temperature of the engine.
Page 19
Engine Mechanics Balance Piston Preload on the shackle joint is achieved by a balance piston. The piston consists of a sleeve in which several spring washers are arranged behind one another, axially tensioned. Setting for “Warm Engine” Compensation Camshaft Gear Gear Shackles 303_017b...

Engine Mechanics Oil Scavenge System Two oil scavenge pumps are used to ensure an ample supply of oil in the sump in all driving conditions. The following examples describe the oil scavenge system in three different driving states. Pressurized Oil Channel Oil Return Auxiliary Oil Return...
Page 27
Engine Mechanics Oil Scavenge System, Uphill Driving Pressurized Oil System Oil Return 303_020 During uphill driving or when accelerating, the oil flows into the rear area of the oil pan. The flap traps close, preventing the oil from flowing into the rear area of the oil pan. The oil scavenge pumps suction the oil out of the rear area of the oil pan, eliminating backpressure from the turbocharger and the auxiliary drive oil return.
