Engine history is (roughly)

 

1988 - 1992 : 1.8 G60 and 1.8 16v available

1992 - 1994 : 2.0 16v, 2.9 VR6 available

1994 - 1995 : 2.0 8v, 2.0 16v, 2.9 VR6 available

 

Though not sure if the 8v was only available for one year or two... but.. thats roughly it anyway :)

IIRC wasn't the Golf only a 1.8l 16v? I have to say that I had a lot of respect for the 2.0l valver engine, not much power under 3k rpm, but over that (and certainly over 4k) it really started to sing. If you took it up to about 5.5K- 6K rpm, then it dropped right into the sweet spot when you shifted up.... Had a 2-stage throttle that took a bit of getting used to as well, but was very handy for not draining the fuel tank when going round town.

Cheers,

Tom

Absolutely. The MK3 Golf onwards is a bit like the movies Highlander 2 & Highlander 3... Sorry, what am I talking about, there can be only one :wink:

pity the pic is of a 1.8 16v not the 2.0 16v they recommend :wink:

 

IIRC the 2.0 16v in the C is the Audi 16v........whereas the 2.0 16v found in the mk3 Golf GTI 16v is the ABF VW Engine

did they do the 1.8 16v on an L reg ?

 

 

not officially......but there's always the chance there might be 1 or 2 kicking about...........if there was a L-reg 1.8 16v then 99.9% it will have the early interior :wink:
