Oil Pump Upgrade Kit – 2.0 TFSI EA113 with Genuine Pierburg Pump
Made in Germany – The Reliable Replacement for a Known Weak Spot
This upgrade kit is the proven solution to one of the most critical weaknesses of the 2.0 TFSI EA113 engine: the factory oil pump with balance shaft module. The original system includes heavy counter-rotating shafts that cause premature wear and frequent pump failure – often leading to severe engine damage.
Our conversion kit removes the entire problematic module and replaces it with a lightweight, efficient, and durable oil pump from renowned German manufacturer Pierburg. It is the ideal solution for anyone seeking long-term engine safety, especially in tuned or high-mileage EA113 setups.

- Less rotating mass = reduced internal drag & improved engine response
- Increased oil reliability and flow under load and heat
- Higher oil capacity (up to 6L) with compatible oil pans
- Lower oil temps and more stable pressure at high RPM
