Guys,
I've come across a TD GTI 6Speed Manual on an 02 plate, but although I've read through some posts on here I can't for the life of me work out whether it's 130bhp or 150bhp. I've checked the log book, the service manual, hpi check, the colour of the TDI badge & had a look for a sticker in the boot but can't suss it out.
I've got some pics so can someone please give me the answer :rolleyes:
Cheers Very Much!

Usually the d and i being red means its 130bhp. If the whole of the tdi is red than it should be 150 bhp.

Um, not really... there's a fair few posts about it in this board. Sure fire way of knowing is the figure on that sticker, reads the power measured in kW. I can't see it on that photo, my eyesight's bad enough without blurred photos :laugh:
-
I have read somewhere if the intercooler is on the left hand side its a 130BHP and if its ......ummmm somewhere else its a 150BHP.
-
the 150's have got a front mounted intercooler
-
do the 150's come with an inch bigger wheels than that one?
-
I did say usually lol.
-
I`d say it`s defo a 130, but its funny because Motorpoint cars more often than not come fully loaded.
As in 3 headrest, climate and winterpack, this one seems to have just the 3 headrests but its just somert else less to go wrong.
How much they lookin for it? because its a low milage one @50 K init
-
If you have a closer look at the blured picture you can see a number 96....this refers to 96kW = 130BHP.
-
ISNT THERE SOMETHING WITH THE REAR HEADRESTS?
DO 130S HAVE 2 REAR AND THE 150S HAVE 2 REAR HEADRESTS (OR VICE VERSA)
-
^ lol how random is that post.
All you need to do is look at the sticker.

no becuase the third head rest was an option available to all models.
the only external difference that the 150 has as standard, is the front splitter, this is the same as the V6 4 motion, the others only have the centre cut out.
this one is clearly a 130 as the power is 96Kw and the engine is ASZ, which i thought we had decided a long time ago.
-
I'm assuming the front splitter is the extra bit along the bottom of the bumper??
Also, what is the point of headlight brows? I've got them on my PD150 and when I first looked at the car I thought they were washers...!
-
...(the square bits in front of the lights). maybe they're not brows..
-

aye its to accommodate the intake for the intercooler / air box

do you mean something above the light or on the bumper?
the ones on the bumper are going to be headlight washerjets. the ones above have no point
-
they're on the bumper. But I've tried using the washers with the lights on and I don't think they don't do anything.

on mine they only pop up when the headlights are on (dimmed beam)
on some versions i think they pop up regardless on every 6th spray.
you'll need a solid spray too say 1 second atleast.
-
aha! Cheers - I'll get spraying later.
