Product Information

Intercooler

An intercooler is a heat exchanger used in turbocharged or supercharged engines to cool the compressed air before it enters the engine’s intake manifold.

Purpose:

  • Reduce air temperature: Compressed air from the turbo or supercharger heats up; cooler air is denser and contains more oxygen, which improves combustion efficiency.
  • Improve engine performance: Cooler, denser air allows more fuel to burn, increasing power.
  • Protect the engine: Reduces the risk of knocking and excessive thermal stress.

Intercoolers can be air-to-air (uses ambient air to cool the compressed air) or air-to-liquid (uses a coolant or water). They are typically mounted in front of the radiator or in a dedicated location in the engine bay.

Intercooler Failure Symptoms
  • Reduced Engine Power or Boost: Leaks or blockages prevent the engine from receiving properly compressed, cooled air.
  • Hissing or Whistling Noise: Air escaping from cracks or loose connections under boost produces noticeable sounds.
  • Increased Intake Air Temperature: Engine may run hotter, reducing performance and efficiency.

About Genuine VW

The Volkswagen Group, also known as “VAG”, consists of Volkswagen, Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche, Ducati, MAN, Scania, SEAT, and Skoda. The original parts used by VW to build your car are available as replacement parts under the “Genuine VW” brand. Manufactured under the direction of VW, expect excellent quality and a premium price since these parts are available exclusively through the VW Dealership network.

You may not realize this, but the parts that make up your VW are not necessarily manufactured by VW. No cause for concern, as VW designs the part, hires a manufacturer, and ensures its quality to you. In fact, many of these manufacturers have been making parts for VW for decades. In our industry these manufacturers are called OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers), and these are often brands you recognize, including Lemforder, ZF, Sachs, Bosch, Valeo, Zimmermann, Siemens VDO, Corteco, and more. Don’t be surprised to open that Genuine VW parts box and find an OEM branded part inside, simply with the addition of a VW logo.

Be sure to keep an eye out for OE tags on our product pages to quickly identify parts coming directly from OE manufacturers. That extra bit of insight could save you some serious money while shopping! Refer to our OE Academy for further information regarding the OE/OEM tags throughout the site.
