There are a few TDI 4Motion owners on her, @ady-uk has done plenty of mods to his, look up his posts. I have a Black 06 Sport 4Motion, with factory Xenons, Dual Zone Climatronic and Sunroof. I spent more than 2 years for the right spec to come along and have added R32 leather interior, MK6 FBSW with controls, RNS510 and other small changes.

Hi Stu,
Thanks for the reply/post. It's great to hear about other 4motion's on here :happy2:
Hmm! factory Xenons, v.nice! :smiley:
I wish mine had them.

It should give about 230bhp, but will be factory downpipe, so no issues with MOTs in the future, as they appear to be getting more and more strict and I can't be a**ed with swapping a decat out every year. I did consider the Darkside GTB2260 kit, but the cost for that really starts to build if you want the 300bhp it can give with supporting mods.

I have already upgraded the brakes to 310mm front and 282mm rears, so I could still fit my winter 16" rims. I bet the 340mm Golf R brakes look mint. :happy2:
I'll try and get some photos of the brakes uploaded shortly.

Cheers
Stu

All the bodywork is in A1 condition with no rust anywhere. It did help that VW replaced one of my front wings recently under warranty as there were very small (and I do mean very very small!) bubble appearing under the paint. All free of charge. :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

Would love having 4motion on my TDI..
But seems like I have enough on my plate with the engine build along with DSG conversion hehe. Maybe when that's done I should look into doing a 4motion coversion :signLOL: Would really support my +300bhp setup nice though :party:

Do you have a thread? Quick question - Is yours a five or three door?

It would make sense to fit a prop shaft and rear diff while your gearbox is out... :wink:
I bet 300bhp TDI would be incredible in a MK5 4Motion, but if I had your engine and DSG I would consider fitting this into a 4Motion model to save the hassle of retrofitting the 4wd parts, subframe, fuel tank to a fwd one etc etc :driver:
Christiank:
Would love to be able to install new engine, DSG and convert it to 4motion all at once ... But my wife :mad: :mad: hehe.
New engine is finaly soon to be fitted along with new brakes, discs and pads all the way around - Will also change the intire rear subframe mounts, since I'll change rear hubs for alloy ones. (already got hubs and wishbones in alloy at the front)
In the fall hopefully I got time to do a full DSG and maybe a 4motion conversion if I can find the parts to do it the 4motion retrofit :D The DSG conversion will happen no matter what since my clutch problerly wont last longer to the fall with the new engine :evilgrin:
