Hey Ppl, :)

My car has recently had a few problems.. after breaking down on me in wales :lol: anyways.. after a few looks and queries i have found out that it is in need of a new engine.. its running on 2 out of 4 cylinders.. :(

I have been offered a 106 GTI engine, similar mileage as mine with service history.. will this fit straight into my VTS or will there have to be anything adjusted/modified ?

Regards,
Ryan :wink:

it will fit if you use the vts loom but the gti loom is slightly different and will need splicing into the main vts loom. just below the battery

Should be a straight swap all round IIRC, though best to swap the sensors over if any are different.
