diamondblack 0 Posted November 8, 2007 Seen a 1.8 advertised as having a catalytic converter. I didn't think that the 1.8, even the latter models, ever came fitted with a cat. Is that the case? (And saw this on a review page: 'Some parts prices will scare you, though. Try £790 for a full exhaust system the catalytic converter alone is over £425.')

Jim 2 Posted November 8, 2007 1.8 16v's never had a catalytic converter - all the rest did. No one really buys VW exhaust systems these days because of the astronomical cost.. most folks go for a full aftermarket system (£300-£400 tops) and either bypass the cat or just buy a cheapie GSF one, or a known good one from a car being broken for parts.

diamondblack 0 Posted November 8, 2007 Okay, thanks for that (I didn't think that the 1.8s came with the cat but thanks for the confirm). Now, did the 1.8s have an ABS option?... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
