I don't think the 5 pot would fit in the golf anyway.

What I dont get is that everyone wants the 3.2V6 to remain... so why not just give it a little turbo??  :huh:




Go on VW!!!! You know you want to!!!

It would be nice if they fitted the 3ltr  v6 supercharged engine thats in the new S4.

....I was lent one for a week - The Avant version. Superb engine and drove like a smaller car but I only got 19 mpg! Its new quattro with sports diff is very cool too.

I don't think the engine would fit a Golf.

I remember reading that report on the S4, very good read. I too don't think the 3ltr V6 supercharged engine would fitted in the golf otherwise I think we would have seen it in the new RS TT instead of the 2.5 5cyclinder job in it. It would of been nice.

Im sure it would if they got rid on unimportant stuff like the washer fluid bottle, plastic engine covers, noise insulation.. and bonnet :evil:

or they could have simply fitted a small(er) supercharger / turbo to the current 3.2 :nerd:

It should fit. The 2.5 5 pot engine that's in the TT RS is based on the 2.5 5 pot that was fitted to US market Mk 5 Golfs. I saw a couple when I went on a tour round the Wolfsburg factory. It has been heavily re-worked for the TT RS though, including adding the turbo.

The Golf R will almost certainly be a 2.0 four pot, most likely the engine from the Scirrocco R20.
