Engine swap from Octavia.
« on: 17 December 2010, 21:40 »
Hello.

A 1998 Mk4 Gti Golf, have a 1.8T Skoda Octavia engine from 2004.

This is the engine, just wondering if it's going to be a problem putting it into the MK4 ?
If so then what ?

1.8 20vT   Petrol   1,781 cc (1.781 L; 108.7 cu in)   4cyl DOHC   150 PS (110 kW; 148 hp) @5700 rpm   210 N·m (150 lb·ft) @1750–4600 rpm

Sorry about not being clear :)

The engine in the VW is dead, and I have a 1.8T from a Skoda Octavia that's good.

Just wondering about the electronics or if there are any major problems since they are both VW 1.8T engines...

the engine in the golf was an AGU and the other one is prob a AUM or AUQ.

I think the loom does not have all the connections but should not be a prob.   i am sure some of the peeps here will tell you :)

Will not be a straight fit, you need both engine codes but I am sure the later one will need mods.

^only if its a VRs, they did a lot of 150 "elegance" models too

you'll need the later loom and ecu if you want to run the skoda engine as it comes. Probably easier just to swap over the bottom end if that's what fubar'd
