I want to check my pistons before I just buy new ones. There is no scoring, and the ring lands measure well within spec, but I cannot find information on where to measure the piston diameter. If it's like other Mahle pistons, I know you have to measure "X" distance from the skirt. Is that true for the stock 94mm Mahle pistons? If so, anyone know how far from the skirt?
Thanks! |

Thanks. That helps. I am surprised Porsche/VW used the same blue-pink-green color sequence for the oversized pistons/cylinders. Different colors on the various over-sizes would make it easier to know what you are expecting (or hoping) to find when measuring piston and cylinder to see if they can be reused.
