As of January 6, 2017, Volkswagen announced a complete fix for 2015 TDI models with the third-generation engine. This will involve installing a second NOx sensor and a new or replacement diesel
Our verdict on the Volkswagen Golf GTD 2.0 TDI 5dr. There's no denying that the seventh generation Golf is a supremely competent car. In GTD guise this is raised a few notches thanks to the flexible and refined nature of the car's smooth diesel engine and transmission. That the performance is easily accessible encourages the driver to regularly
TDI. 2015 JETTA TDI SE. Sep 14, 2015. #3. You should get a DSG tranny cause. 1) you have no fear of getting called less of a driver or man cause you let the car shift!! 2) it is what you WANT. 3) the 2015 cars have nearly the same gear ratio's as the stick2000 rpm at about 72 mph..so mpg is similar
R5 engine is the same engine that you can find on Transporter and Crafter, its a pretty good engine and very reliable if you do the maintenance well. Some peoples had camshaft issues with this engine, but it seems thats because of using the wrong oil. 506.01 is the only oil formula you can use in R5 or V10 engines manufactured before 2007. This latest evolution of the age-old Volkswagen TDI engine is a good one, too, smoothly doling out its considerable power and torque without making too much noise about it. I didn't do a long motorway run in it, sadly, but still managed about 6.0 litres/100km in a few days' pottering about on a mix of hilly open roads and traffic-choked urban T6 Legend. 2 Sep 2020. #3. Hi we have a 102 and a 150bhp. The 102 is tuned to 170bhp REVO. But in my option the 150bhp DSG is a better drive. The 102 is way better on fuel though, driven steady camper conversion I can get 42 mpg. Swings and round a outs but I would go for a 150 or bigger if I was buying again. The newer car needed 8.1 seconds to get to 60 mph and 16.1 seconds to cross the quarter-mile, 0.3 and 0.1 second behind the last Passat 1.8T we tested. Acceleration on the move was no better, with
The 2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI SEL exemplifies the Golf range's main virtues: efficiency, quality, comfort, and fun. But the 2.0-liter engine's 236 lb-ft of torque, at your disposal from just
Consumer Reports now names the 2.0-equipped Audi A4 in its list of vehicles most likely to need an engine rebuild, topping the controversial list along with the 2008 Ford Super Duty pickup truck So, presumably with an Acme kit you can stick any VW 4cyl from 1975-1999 and probably some later ones in your truck. There are some great gas engines at good prices with high availability and decent aftermarket support. e.g. the ubiquitous ABA 2.0 8v found in 1994-1999 vws has 115 hp and 122 ft/lbs which can be had for dirt cheap. The Sportwagen TDI is powered by a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder good for 140 hp and 236 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed manual transmission is standard and a six-speed automated manual

VW has historically figured out how to avoid paying for anything. Tons of horror stories out there. everything from a scratch on a nut of the waste gate signifying "consumer mod" therefore voiding the warranty to unwilling to fix a recall because a CES light it on. If you get another TDI like I did, buy the car because you love VWs.
Despite the improved efficiency, performance should not suffer greatly. Running on standard 87-octane fuel, this 2.0-liter B-Cycle engine is rated a more-than-acceptable 184 horsepower with 221 lb 09PWnM.
