The Audi BHK is a 3.6L naturally aspirated VR6 gasoline engine from the Volkswagen-Audi Group’s EA390 series
(actual displacement: 3,597 cc; commonly referred to as the 3.6 FSI). It belongs to the second-generation VR6 narrow-angle six-cylinder family
and was produced from approximately 2005 to 2010.
Derived from the 3.2 FSI with increased displacement, this engine features a cast-iron VR6 block (with a cylinder angle of approximately 10.6°–15°),
an aluminum alloy cylinder head, direct injection (FSI), dual-chain timing drive, and dual variable valve timing. Primarily designed for large SUV platforms,
it delivers smooth power delivery and ample low-end torque, serving as the main naturally aspirated six-cylinder powerplant for the first-generation
Audi Q7 and the first-generation Volkswagen Touareg. Related codes include BHL (manual transmission version).
Our products are exported to various parts of the country, and the customers we have worked with have received unanimous praise.
The company has invested over 20 million yuan in high-end remanufacturing equipment imported from abroad and a first-class production
team in the country. Our warehouse has a total area of over 8000 square meters, with scientific management and sufficient supply of goods.
