mk3 2.0 8v codes are..2E   ADY   AGG   AKR   ATU   AWF  and   AWG.

cheers dude are they all the same??
which code works well with a my car??

[monkeyalan]

from what i understand the engine code only changed because they kept changing the injection system. digifant,simos or bosch. the block is the same for all as far as i know. like gambit said, ask on the mk3 forum, someone there will know for sure.

thanks mate will do

[jimbo]

i dont think it matters which block you get but which ever you get you will need the dizzy from the 2E engine to run with digifant.

can i not just use my dizzy??
im sure i read that i can somewhere??
