This is a list of auto parts, which are manufactured components of automobiles. This list reflects both fossil-fueled cars (using internal combustion engines) and electric vehicles; the list is not exhaustive. Many of these parts are also used on other motor vehicles such as trucks and buses.
The following articles list Volkswagen Group engines which are available worldwide. These include motor vehicle engines, marine engines sold by Volkswagen Marine [1] and industrial engines sold by Volkswagen Industrial Motor.

Turboprop, turboshaft and turbofan engines have additional turbine stages to drive a propeller, bypass fan or helicopter rotor. In a free turbine the turbine driving the compressor rotates independently of that which powers the propeller or helicopter rotor. Cooling air, bled from the compressor, may be used to cool the turbine blades, vanes ...
An illustration of several key components in a typical four-stroke engine. For a four-stroke engine, key parts of the engine include the crankshaft (purple), connecting rod (orange), one or more camshafts (red and blue), and valves. For a two-stroke engine, there may simply be an exhaust outlet and fuel inlet instead of a valve system.
A compressor map is a chart which shows the performance of a turbomachinery compressor. This type of compressor is used in gas turbine engines, for supercharging reciprocating engines and for industrial processes, where it is known as a dynamic compressor. A map is created from compressor rig test results or predicted by a special computer program.
The same engine ultimately reached 35,000 lbf (160 kN) of thrust in test runs. [6] The LEAP-1A was tested on GE's 747-400 flying test platform. [18] CFM carried out the first test flight of a LEAP-1C in Victorville, California, with the engine mounted on the company's Boeing 747 flying testbed aircraft on 6 October 2014. The -1C version ...
The A320 engine, the PW1100G, had made its first static engine test run on November 1, 2012, [20] and was first tested on the 747SP on May 15, 2013. [21] The first flight of the Airbus A320neo followed on September 25, 2014. [22] The PW1100G engine achieved FAA type certification on December 19, 2014. [23]
The first flight with one of these engines took place on 22 February 2007, using a Boeing 747-100, fitted with one GEnx engine in the number 2 (inboard left hand side) position. By fall 2019, General Electric was offering the GEnx-2B, developed for the 747-8, for the revised 767-XF variant based on the 767-400ER, but needed enough volume to ...
