Seafoam treatment can be used on DI to keep intake clean. Common to do this on Audi’s that have DI. Google how to do it.I'm very happy with my 2.0T, no issues, fun and responsive, mid to high 20s mpg with 91 non ethanol, 89 (ethanol) when non ethanol not available. 1700 miles.
Question ; will the non ethanol fuel keep valves cleaner ? What treatments to keep DI deposits from building up ?
Yes it does, the 2.0 turbo uses a water-to-air intercoolerThe 2.0L Turbo doesn't have a intercooler so that is a mute point here.
Understood.Yes it does, the 2.0 turbo uses a water-to-air intercooler
No, it does not. If you look under the hood you’ll see that the intake air goes straight from the air cleaner through the throttle body, into the turbo compressor then directly into the head. No traditional intercooler at all. The throttle body and turbo are water cooled by a separate system which has a small heat exchanger in front of the radiator.Yes it does, the 2.0 turbo uses a water-to-air intercooler
Yes, it uses a water-to-air intercooler/heat exchanger/charge air cooler/whatever you want to call it to bring air temps down.No, it does not.

CoolI have over 400k miles on a stock 4.7L V8 WJ. Have had a check engine light for 8 years straight (Don't feel like replacing the evap canister). Displacement and simple design FTW. Thought about trading her in for a new wrangler but having second thoughts...
Hi! I have a 2019 Sahara with the 2.0L engine. Just yesterday I went of roaring on loose sand and kept getting stuck. I feel like the Turbo isn’t engaging...Has anyone ever had this problem?Is this 2.0 "Mild Hybrid" system in any other FCA automobiles? I'd like to lurk those forums and look for any problems.
Did you turn off traction control and ESC while playing in the sand?Hi! I have a 2019 Sahara with the 2.0L engine. Just yesterday I went of roaring on loose sand and kept getting stuck. I feel like the Turbo isn’t engaging...Has anyone ever had this problem?
Bet that's it. My 3.6 felt like it had a hamster in it on a recent off-road excursion in the sand before I realized the TC was on.Did you turn off traction control and ESC while playing in the sand?
No I didn’t...I’m new to sand.Did you turn off traction control and ESC while playing in the sand?
No I didn’t...I’m new to sand.
Do those modifications improve power on sand? I just installed 33” on her and was wondering if that’s could be a reason.Bet that's it. My 3.6 felt like it had a hamster in it on a recent off-road excursion in the sand before I realized the TC was on.
Unleash that beast!
