What is the main function of a car engine?

A car engine is a drive unit that converts fuel energy into mechanical motion, enabling the vehicle to move.

How does the engine timing system work?

It synchronizes the operation of the crankshaft with the camshafts, controlling the opening and closing of the valves.

What does the engine symbol mean, e.g. N55 or DW10C?

This designation indicates the design version, specifying parameters, capacity, type of accessories and compatibility with parts.

How do I choose parts for my engine?

It is best to match parts according to the engine designation (e.g. N55, 2.0 TDCi, 1.9 TDI) and vehicle model.

Do engine parts differ between versions of one model?

Yes - one generation of a car may have several engine variants differing in power, equipment and parameters.

Which engines are the most durable?

The 1.9 TDI, DW10C and six-cylinder BMWs, e.g. N55, are considered durable.

Can parts be used between different car models?

Yes, if they have compatible parameters and identical specifications - e.g. DW10C injectors fit Ford, Peugeot and Citroën.

Engines and parts

A wide selection of original, used engine parts for vehicles from leading brands such as BMW, Mini, Mercedes, Audi, Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda, Ford and many others, including niche brands.

Original, used engines and engine components for popular brands

Car Engines and Parts: The Heart of Your Vehicle

Car engines are a key component of every vehicle, responsible for its performance, efficiency, and reliability. Alongside them, engine parts play a crucial role, ensuring the proper operation of the engine. At Global Parts, you'll find a wide selection of used car parts. for engines, perfectly matched to the brands BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini and others. A car engine is a set of mechanisms that convert the chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy that drives the vehicle's wheels. In practice, this means the operation of hundreds of interacting components, such as pistons, a crankshaft, and a cylinder head. Particularly popular engines on the market include the N55 engine used in BMW (300–326 hp), the economical DW10C engine installed in Peugeot, Citroën, and Ford, and high-strength designs like the Mondeo MK4 2.0 engine . The A4 B8 1.8 and 2.0 TFSI engines are very popular among Audi owners, as is the classic Passat B5 1.9 TDI engine, known for its excellent power-to-fuel ratio.

What components are included in car engines and parts?

Automotive engines and parts are a broad category of components that impact the durability, efficiency, and performance of the drivetrain. Key elements include:

Oil pumps and parts – They are responsible for proper engine lubrication, which prevents overheating and wear of its components.
Engine blocks – The foundation of the engine structure, housing the cylinders and other key components.
Engines – Comprehensive drive units that can be replaced in case of serious damage.
Crankshafts – Key to transmitting energy generated in the combustion process to drive systems.
Engine heads – They contain valves, camshafts and combustion chambers, ensuring proper air and fuel flow.
Engine, main and crank bearings – They ensure smooth and safe movement of the crankshaft and pistons.
Oil drain and filler plugs and dipsticks – They make it easier to check the oil level and change it.
Pistons and rings – Key elements of the combustion process that compress the fuel-air mixture and transfer energy to the crankshaft.
Oil filters – They protect the engine against contamination in the lubrication system.
Oil pans – Store oil and ensure its even distribution throughout the engine.
Engine mounts – They minimize vibrations and noise, ensuring engine stability during operation.
Inspection kits – Parts kits that facilitate regular engine maintenance.
Connecting rods and parts – They are responsible for transferring the movement of the pistons to the crankshaft.
Engine sensors and switches – They monitor engine operation, providing key information to the controllers.
Seals and mounting parts – They ensure tightness and proper connection of engine components.
Chains, timing belts and mounting kits – Crucial for synchronizing the operation of the camshafts and crankshaft.
Timing parts – Shafts, gears and tensioners, which are responsible for the proper opening and closing of valves. Each of these components plays an important role in the operation of the engine, and their efficiency affects the vehicle's reliability. For a given component to be fully compatible with the drive unit, it must be matched to the engine generation, displacement, cylinder layout, and manufacturer's model designation (e.g., N55, DW10C, BKC, AVF). Matching a part to a BMW E90 or BMW E60 also requires considering the design differences between the 150, 163, or 177 hp versions. This ensures that the crankshaft, pistons, and sensors operate within the parameters specified by the manufacturer.

Compatibility table

The table below shows an example of the compatibility of selected engines:

Engine model	Capacity	Power	Fuel type	Sample models	Parts Compatibility
N55 (BMW)	3.0	300–326 hp	Gas	BMW E90, E92, F30	High compatibility of oil pumps and ignition coils
DW10C (PSA/Ford)	2.0	150 hp	Diesel	Mondeo MK4, Peugeot 508	Head and injector compatibility
1.9 TDI (Passat B5)	1.9	90–131 hp	Diesel	Passat B5, Audi A4 B5	Wide interchangeability of turbines and injectors
2.0 TFSI (A4 B8)	2.0	180–211 hp	Gas	Audi A4 B8, A5	High valve train compliance

Why is it worth taking care of car engines and their parts?

Regular maintenance and replacement of worn engine components and parts is essential for long-term, reliable vehicle operation. Neglecting these components can lead to:

Decreased performance and increased fuel consumption.
Damage to key components such as crankshafts and pistons.
Engine overheating and serious breakdowns. At Global Parts we offer genuine used car parts , which undergo detailed quality tests, ensuring their full functionality. A regularly serviced engine can operate trouble-free for up to 300,000–500,000 km, depending on its design and driving conditions. Engines like the 1.9 TDI in the Passat B5 are renowned for mileage exceeding 500,000 km, while modern petrol engines, such as the N55, can practically reach 250,000–350,000 km with the correct selection and replacement of components. Maintaining oil filtration, system tightness, and proper timing operation directly impacts cooling, combustion, and engine performance.

How to choose the right engine parts?

When choosing car engines and parts, such as pistons, heads or oil pumps, it is worth paying attention to:

Vehicle-specific fit – Each car make and model requires specific technical solutions. At Global Parts, you'll find components perfectly suited to BMW , Audi , Mercedes , Volkswagen , Mini, and more.
Technical condition – Make sure parts are free from damage, corrosion and cracks.
Service History – When it comes to engines or larger components such as engine blocks, it is important to know their history. When selecting components for engines like the BMW E60 3.0, Audi A4 B8 2.0 TFSI, or Mondeo MK4 2.0 TDCi, it's crucial to match the components to the engine version numbering and a range of parameters—for example, piston diameter (84–90 mm), oil pump operating pressure, or timing belt tensioner type. This ensures that the individual parts work together under optimal conditions, maintaining the correct torque and engine efficiency.

Why choose used engine parts?

Used car parts are a great solution that allows you to save money without compromising quality. Choosing used engines and engine parts, you gain:

Lower costs – Used items are much cheaper than new ones, but offer just as high quality.
Ecology – You support recycling and reduce the amount of automotive waste.
A wide range – In our store you will find components for the most popular car brands.

How to take care of the engine and its parts?

To keep your car engine running reliably for a long time, it is worth remembering a few rules:

Change your engine oil and oil filters regularly to avoid excessive wear.
Ensure the timing system is working properly by checking the condition of belts and chains.
Check the oil level and quality using the dipsticks and drain plugs.
Replace gaskets and seals to prevent leaks. If you need to replace yours, you'll find the right used car parts at Global Parts. that will restore your vehicle to full working order. For popular diesel engines like the DW10C, 1.9 TDI, or 2.0 TDCi, changing the oil every 10,000–15,000 km significantly extends the life of the turbocharger and crankshaft. In petrol engines, like the N55, special attention should be paid to the cooling system—the coolant pump and thermostat should be maintained in full working order to ensure the engine operates within the 90–105°C range, as specified by the manufacturer.
