THROTTLE BODY AGU fitment?
« on: 23 February 2011, 18:53 »
Hi guys tried searching but not much seems to come up..Anyhows my mechanic has finally had some time to check out my stalling 1998 golf gti 1.8t and it turns out theres a fault with the throttle bodie and it needs replacing..

Now looking on ebay i think i've found one i was just wondering if anyone knows if there year specifc? will any AGU one fit ? Anyone know which part number i need? or where i can find out?

Must be a rare problem as not many results on search?  :sad:

thanks!

as long as it's cable throttle from a Golf it should be fine

hi guys..

Ok after a  bit of hunting about it seems almost every throttle body i've tracked down from a breakers yard from a AGU car is coded 06A133063G...but mine has an F at the end for some reason.Now this car was rebuilt after a failed cambelt and never done properly (hence the reason for a new place looking at it due to  cutting out problem the other dummys couldn't solve)anyhows one breaker said to me that the F ones rare and are from cars with Cruise control?now my car doesn't have cruise control so i'm thinking a G will be fine?Maybe those retards who rebuilt the car switched the throttle bodies for a car with cruise for some  reason?

Just for ref my cars a 1.8t GTI 1998 S reg.No climate obvoius cos its old model.Only option it seems to have is these cool black leather/heated Recaro seats with massoooive bolsters!


Thanks for any advise guys.Just trying to get these thing back on the road! :(

G is just probably a revision. Will check on ETKA later for you

But mine hasn't got cruise control...Then it was rebuilt by some retards when the cambelt went hence the reason my dad left of the road for 3 years...Now i've just kinda taken it off his hands since selling my car..kinda my new project,now i've found out all along its just a throttle body!  :laugh:

Any news mate as my mechanic  reckons The G's got differnt fitment and mines an F...

But every single breaker or call or see on ebay has G for all AGU's..

Maybe the dummys who rebuilt the car after the cambelt snap boged another throttle body on there?
:(
