Scirrocco Engine the same a s a mk2 golf?
« on: 12 April 2005, 18:43 »
Hello all,

I have been offered a Scirocco gti for £150, the engine is what I am after as mine is damaged beyond repair.

Does anyone know if they are the same engine?

The golf is a 1800 8v, unsure about the scirrocco tho?

Any idea's peeps?

Thanks in advance, Mark  :smiley:

If the Scirocco is 1800 then yeah, basically it will be the same..........got some engine codes?

it'll be the same setup as the mk1 Golf GTI i.e. the Fuel Regulator & throttle body positioning etc will be different to that of a mk2.

Gambit is right, it will be like a mk1.
The servo and brake master cylinder is on the right, like for a LHD. So some parts will be needed to swap to make it work.

Yeah, the basic engine itself should be fine.........Gambit is correct about the layout being different. I assume you'll already have all that and its just the engine itself that you need :undecided:

If its the same set up as the MK1 GTI then the engine code should be a DX
