The 1.4, 1.5, and 2.0 new SGE engines share nothing with the old 1.4T. It's 100% a different engine.
Not that it's a bad thing.

Every cam lobe I could see looked exactly the same way. What looks like linear scratches - the same way every cam picture I've see looks like then they get some miles on them. I'll bet this engine has another 150,000 miles in it.

Hope you are right … 128k on our 2013. From looking in the fill spout, the top is very clean.

I agree... Maybe 200,000+ miles...

Looks great, whatever the previous owner used worked well and I am betting they were using a Dexos certified 5w/30 oil. Why are you using HDEO which, I believe, most are not Dexos rated? Regardless of specs - it is working for you very well as the proof is in the pictures!

Probably because it's out of warranty and he stated he uses 0w30 in the imwinter time which is DEXOS1 GEN 2 rated
WWilson: does look very clean. Thank You for sharing
