Strange discription of my car.....
QD MBE:
The link refers to the TSi 170, which is Supercharged and turbocharged, and by all accounts is a bit quick.
Does the sticker on the inside of the drivers door aperture say GTI?
Service book should also tell you, if a GTI, and the engine code.
duncan:
doesnt say GTI inside the car but does on the front cover of the service manual
when i open up the bonet the engine says FSI TURBO.
in all seriousness i very much doubt its not a GTI since ive had plenty of people look at the car from VW roadside assistence when the coil packs went + the VW garage who fixed the coil pack issue + a different VW garage who had it to find out why my power output is so low...
does make you think though, why does the DVLA think its a GT 170, but at the same time says that its a 2.0l engine...
182_blue:
does it have this engine
neg:
boot sticker is the best way to tell although the FSI TURBO under the bonnet sounds fine - or have they just swapped engine covers!! :surprised:
only kidding :wink:
VC:
you will need to solve it cos if you ever need to make a big insurance claim (such as it getting nicked or you running out of talent on a corner) there would be a discrepancy between your V5 and your insurance documentation which will void your policy due to misreprasentation
