engine code varies depending on bhp etc, oil long life, manual box oil has no service interval, multi every 40k

check the clutch is ok as they are made of butter and very unreliable also the water pumps leak like a sieve
plus check for g450 error codes in fact buy a b6 :)

thanks.
the bhp is 136-so what is the engine code?
and what does the g450 error codes relate to?
what is a multi every 40k?
what version of vag.com does one need for diagnostics?

lift up the carpet in the boot. here you will find a sticker with the engine code on it, and all the other codes you will ever need that relate to the car. now lift the bonnet and check the code on top of the timing belt cover. this should match what is in the boot.
