Oil was changed at 18K and then I changed it 29K although that was well ahead of the apparent 15,000 miles still to go before its next service  :shocked: :shocked:

Injectors are the same I believe

You get more bhp out of a 130; upto 50bhp in some cases whereas the 150 tends to make about 30-40bhp

Also the 130 tends to make more torque; most of the 150's seem to struggle to make over 300lbs ft torque  :undecided:

Certainly the 170 engine in my Audi doesn't produce as much torque as my old 130 and the driving experience is very different. 

and what happens after a little while.... :lipsrsealed:


130 m8  :cool: i have  bora sport 115 and chipped it and its at 155bhp and its quick enough!! or you can get a 130 pd and it will remap up to 170 180 if very lucky  :wink: all 130 gt tdi are 6 speed and so are most 115 !! i have heard problems with 150s so i would keep away  :lipsrsealed:


get problems with 130's as well

I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...

130's are both 5 and 6 speed btw.

Thought it was the 115's that were 5 and 6 speed?  :undecided:

I know the 130 engine in the Audi's were 5 speed only

My point.

I wasn't sure if we were just talking VW or across the range so covered both. :smiley:

Then your forgetting about the 160PD If we were talking about the whole range.
