Are you putting a 1.8 T engine into a 1.4 then ?

If you're doing a swap like that, you will need a matching loom for the 1.8T.
The loom and the fusebox will be different as the 1.8T lump has a whole load of different stuff to connect to, especially a different ECU, clocks and engine sensors.
Check out Ashmond's project thread, he put a 1.8T into his Mk4 1.4, so it shows what he had to do:

speak to 'JV' (the first to reply). Send him a message and he should sort you out. You know how to upload pics right? if not then there is a 'how to' guide on here. :smiley:

I wouldnt use a 1.4 dash loom. It may have certain functions missing. Ive never done it myself though

VW breakers/forums are your best bet.
