Fitment questions
Will a cylinder head from a 2018 T-Roc fit my 2022 T-Roc?
The T-Roc first generation ran from 2017 to 2023, with a facelift in 2022, so a 2018 donor and a 2022 car sit either side of that facelift boundary. The engine code is the critical detail here — if both cars share the same code (for example EA211 petrol units are common across the range), there is a reasonable starting point for compatibility, but ancillary and mounting changes introduced at the 2022 facelift mean you should confirm directly with the breaker against your exact registration before purchasing. Never assume fitment without that check.
Does fuel type matter when sourcing a used cylinder head for a T-Roc?
Yes, absolutely — a petrol cylinder head will not interchange with a diesel unit even if the displacement looks similar, because the combustion chamber design, valve layout, and head bolt pattern differ fundamentally between petrol and diesel engines. Always identify your engine code from your V5 logbook or a VIN check and quote it to the breaker, as this pinpoints the exact unit fitted to your car rather than relying on badge or fuel-filler colour alone. Quoting the wrong fuel type is one of the most common and costly sourcing mistakes.
Does the T-Roc trim level affect which cylinder head I need — for example, does a SE head fit an R-Line?
No, the trim level does not affect cylinder head fitment on the T-Roc — SE, SE Technology, R-Line, R-Line Edition, and Black Edition trims are cosmetic and feature-based distinctions, not mechanical ones. Provided the engine code matches between the donor car and your vehicle, the cylinder head itself is the same unit regardless of trim. Bear in mind the donor car may have different ancillary parts cosmetically, but the head itself is interchangeable when engine codes align.
What engine code do I need to give when asking for a T-Roc cylinder head?
The engine code is the single most important detail you can supply — it is a three or four letter code (for example EA211 family petrol engines carry codes such as CZPB or DKJA depending on variant) and it tells the breaker the exact specification of your cylinder head, combustion chamber, and valve train. You will find the engine code on your V5 registration document or through a paid VIN check, and sometimes stamped on the engine block itself. Providing this code instead of just stating '1.5 petrol' significantly increases the chance of getting the correct part first time.
Can I use a T-Roc cylinder head from a manual-gearbox car on my DSG automatic T-Roc?
The gearbox type does not directly affect the cylinder head itself, as the head sits on top of the block and its fitment is governed by the engine code rather than the transmission. However, you should still confirm the full engine code matches, because some engine variants were paired predominantly with one gearbox type and may carry subtle differences. Confirm with the breaker against your registration to be certain no ancillary items attached to the head differ between your car and the donor.
I've found a cylinder head from a 2019 T-Roc — will it fit my pre-facelift 2017 car?
Both a 2017 and a 2019 T-Roc fall within the pre-facelift phase of the first-generation T-Roc (2017–2022 pre-facelift), which is a positive starting point. The engine code must still match exactly, as different power outputs within the same model year used different internal specifications. Confirm the code with the breaker against your registration before buying, as mid-production ancillary and mounting changes can also affect what else bolts directly onto the head.
