Not correct. It is only the S3 CDL engines which have a beefed up block, crank and bottom end. The BYD shares an identical bottom end with the BWA and AXX, and even the 150PS non-turbo 2.0 FSI.
I have previously done considerable research on this very subject, and dispelled many unproven myths that the Ed30 shared the same bottom end as the S3. It was published in detail on the Golf GTI UK forum. My diligent research was subsequently confirmed by Volkswagen Motorsport Germany - their published specifications to race teams categorically instructed them to only use the CDL engine, even in the Cupra Cup cars. They specifically prohibited the Cupra R and Ed30 engines for any competition usage. Their reason was that the S3 block was cast from a higher strength alloy, and this was NOT shared with any other EA113 2.0 TFSI engines.

So the *1 footnote for the BYD engine is all lies then? I've seen this written in several sources online and I would prefer to believe that than your 'considerable and diligent research'.

That was the information shared by VW when the Ed. 30 was released in the market. :thinking:
