I'm sure some of you have good resources...

I'm a science guy, but of the healthcare variety, with minimal car skills. I am interested in learning more about our engines: component locations, functions, etc etc.

I've already learned a ton reading the forums and Youtubing things like "engineering explained"--but if anyone can point me to specific resources regarding TSI engines, our model in particular, it would be much appreciated.

I won't send a "let me Google that for you" link, but I am going to force you to type this into Google haha

"VW EA888 gen 3" in Google produces results from different blogs and info sites, as well as Google image searches with engine cut away photos and diagrams. Technically the EA888 gen 3 motor name also covers newer 1.8T and "rest of world" engines with dual fuel injection (MPI and Direct) as well, but the tech is all the same.
