Title: Engine Type sticker ??
Post by: garrardrj on May 17, 2012, 12:59:32 pm
I have the wrong engine sticker on the chassis b pillar at the bottom inside the drivers door shut. It states Engine 2.0 , Power 130ps and Fuel petrol .
The Car is and Edition 30 , what should the sticker say and do you think i will be able to get a correct replacement from VW ?

These stickers were stuck on by dealer for the OBD thing the police are using. So they can tell what engine. When they pull up faults on there basic diagnostic tools

Thing is when they ran out of a certain sticker any one was stuck on or it was by mistake.

On a 2007 Edition 30.............What does yours say ? Have you got one ?

I am going to remove it  . Do you need it for the car to remain authentic ?
