{"product_id":"ea211-intake-manifold-with-intercooler","title":"EA211 Intake Manifold with Intercooler","description":"The Volkswagen 04E129709L is a genuine OEM intake manifold, also known as an inlet manifold, specifically engineered for the EA211 family of 1.2 TSI and 1.4 TSI petrol engines. This component is crucial for managing engine performance as it houses an integrated charge-air intercooler. Its function is to cool the air boosted by the turbocharger before distributing it to the cylinder head, thereby optimizing combustion and engine power in four-cylinder, 1,197 cc and 1,395 cc engines.\n\nThis intake manifold is designed for a wide range of Volkswagen Group (VAG) petrol-engined models built on the MQB and PQ26\/PQ25 platforms, covering the production years from 2012 to approximately 2026, depending on the specific vehicle model. Fitment is strictly governed by engine code, displacement, and fuel type, and the part is shared across VW, Skoda, and SEAT marques. It is critical to note that this manifold is specific to petrol engines and is not compatible with diesel engines, hybrid-electric powertrains, or fully electric motors. For example, within the VW Golf VII, it fits petrol engine codes CJZA, CYVB, CHPA, CPTA, CMBA, CXSA, CZDA, CZEA, and CPVA, but explicitly excludes the electric e-Golf variants.\n\nWhen considering replacement, potential triggers for the 04E129709L intake manifold include rough or unstable idle, hesitation during acceleration, audible hissing noises from the engine bay indicating a boost leak, or unexplained coolant loss suggesting an internal intercooler leak. Other indicators are white exhaust smoke, sweet-smelling residue within the manifold, cracking of the plastic housing, a warped mating surface, or illuminated check engine lights with related fault codes. While there is no scheduled replacement interval, failures typically emerge after 100,000 km to 150,000 km due to thermal cycling and boost conditions.\n\nIt is essential to verify compatibility before purchasing. This part does not fit diesel engines, hybrid-electric or fully electric powertrains, or specifically the VW Golf VII e-Golf variants. Always confirm the OEM number on your existing part or use a VIN-based lookup to ensure correct fitment for your vehicle. Note that OEM number 04E129709L may supersede or be superseded by other part numbers; cross-referencing is recommended.","brand":"Volkswagen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52664083284280,"sku":"04E129709L","price":168.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/4895\/3144\/files\/687536556.jpg?v=1784332987","url":"https:\/\/store.motormia.co\/products\/ea211-intake-manifold-with-intercooler","provider":"MOTORMIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
