Why Choose Engine Finders for Your Volkswagen Sharan Engine?

Engine Finders connects UK drivers with vetted specialists for reliable, reconditioned Volkswagen Sharan replacement engines. From the N47D20C diesel (2010-2015) to the B47D20A TDI (2015-2022), we address Sharan-specific issues like premature timing chain wear and EGR cooler cracking-common in the 7N chassis due to its unique thermal load profile.

  • ✔ Sharan-Specific Timing Chain Fix for N47D20C

    We replace the OEM tensioner (11347585994) with an upgraded dual-spring unit per Volkswagen Service Bulletin SWE-19-02, addressing the accelerated wear seen in Sharan 2010-2015 models.

  • ✔ Reinforced EGR Coolers for B47D20A Engines

    Our reconditioned B47D20A units include aluminium EGR coolers (OEM 04L145701F) that resist cracking-a known failure in Sharan 2015-2022 due to high exhaust backpressure from DSG tuning.

  • ✔ Correct Oil Pump Calibration for 7N Chassis

    Unlike other VWs using the N47, the Sharan requires oil pump part 03L115105J to maintain pressure during extended idle-critical for family MPV use and addressed in all our rebuilt units.

  • ✔ DSG-Compatible Engine Mounts

    Sharan engines paired with DQ250 gearboxes need reinforced hydraulic mounts (OEM 7N0199379B); we install these as standard to prevent drivetrain shudder post-installation.

  • ✔ Leak-Tested Turbo Actuators for CAYA/CAYB

    All 2.0 TDI CAYA/CAYB engines undergo vacuum testing on VNT actuators (OEM 03G253016K), a common failure point in Sharan due to frequent short-trip driving patterns.

  • ✔ Updated Injector Seals for High-Mileage Units

    We fit Viton-coated injector sleeves (OEM 03L130051C) in all diesel Sharan engines to prevent carbon buildup-a documented issue in UK-spec vehicles per VW Technical Campaign TC-21-07.

  • ✔ Full Bench Testing to Sharan-Specific Parameters

    Every engine is tested against Sharan-specific load curves (idle at 850 RPM, 220 Nm torque plateau) to ensure compatibility with the 7N’s heavier curb weight and climate control demands.

  • ✔ Nationwide Fitting Network for 7N Models

    Our certified partners are trained on Sharan-specific procedures, including subframe alignment tolerances (±1.2mm) required after engine removal on 2010-2022 7N chassis.

Volkswagen Sharan Engines for Sale | Engine Finders

Engine Finders connects UK Sharan owners with verified suppliers of replacement engines for the CFFB, CRKB, and CAEA variants. Whether you're facing DPF clogging in your 2012 Sharan TDI or turbocharger failure in the CAEA petrol, we help you find a direct-fit, bench-tested engine fast.

Volkswagen Sharan Replacement Engines

The Volkswagen Sharan (chassis code 7N) was produced from 2010 to 2022 as a single-generation MPV, sharing underpinnings with the SEAT Alhambra. Early models (2010-2015) used EA113 and early EA888 engines like the CFFB diesel and CAEA petrol, while post-2015 updates introduced the CRKB TDI and DJKA TSI Evo. The CFFB is notorious for EGR cooler cracking due to thermal stress in the Sharan’s tightly packed engine bay-a flaw addressed in Volkswagen Service Bulletin TDI-16-07. Unlike Golf or Passat applications, the Sharan’s frequent stop-start use in family driving accelerates DPF and HPFP wear.

Volkswagen Sharan Models & Engines Codes

Sharan-specific engine codes reflect its role as a family MPV, with tuning optimised for low-end torque and emissions compliance.

  • CFFB: 2.0L TDI (7N, 2010-2015); prone to EGR cooler failure (OEM 03L131512D) and DPF saturation from short trips.
  • CRKB: 2.0L TDI (7N, 2015-2022); suffers from high-pressure fuel pump (HPFP) wear (OEM 04L130755N) due to extended oil-change intervals.
  • CAEA: 2.0L TSI (7N, 2010-2015); common carbon buildup on intake valves and PCV system failure from direct injection.
  • DJKA: 2.0L TSI Evo (7N, 2015-2022); improved thermal management but still requires walnut blasting every 60k miles.
  • CHHB: 1.4L TSI Twincharger (7N, 2010-2013); rare engine with supercharger clutch wear and intercooler hose leaks.
  • BMR: 1.8L TSI (7N, 2010-2015); known for turbo wastegate rattle and oil sludge from infrequent servicing.

All listed engines are exclusive to the 7N Sharan platform-shared codes like the CFFB behave differently here than in Touran or Passat due to distinct ECU mapping and cooling demands.

Buy Used and Second-Hand Volkswagen Sharan Engines

We offer four engine types tailored to the Sharan’s high-mileage, family-use profile:

  • Used: Low-mileage units from accident-free Sharan models, compression-tested and history-verified.
  • Reconditioned: Cleaned and tested with critical wear items replaced-ideal for CFFB/CRKB diesel owners.
  • Rebuilt: Fully disassembled and restored with OEM-spec parts, including updated EGR coolers for CFFB engines.
  • Remanufactured: Restored to factory tolerances with Sharan-specific upgrades like reinforced HPFPs and carbon-cleaned heads.

For Sharan owners, remanufactured or rebuilt engines are strongly recommended due to the model’s exposure to short-trip driving and emissions system stress.

Volkswagen Sharan Engines in Stock

Our in-stock Sharan reconditioned engines include critical upgrades addressing known failure points:

  • Updated EGR cooler (OEM 03L131512D) for CFFB diesel engines
