Found this and thought it may be of some use to some of you LOW guys :

In the mag advert it states it will fit "All 1.8T and 1.9 TDI derivatives"  :smiley:

Call me daft but, wouldn't having a shallower sump mean less oil capacity? wouldn't that mean during hard cornering you'd get oil starvation? Not really sure how the oil systems really work tbh but if you don't use it hard i guess it might be ok?

Might all be nosense mind,  :laugh:

Cos then you drive a standard MK5 and realise just how sh!t the MK4 really is; even when a few quid has been spent on it
