Years of Mk2's without PS, AC
« on: January 16, 2008, 03:46:04 pm »
I am just narrowing down my search criteria for a 1.6TD and would like to know if there were certain years that never had the option of power steering and air conditioning. I would like to avoid having to source non-A/C alternator brackets, etc. Seems like most 91 and 92's have PS and AC.

Thanks for any advice.

most td cars were upgraded luxury models, you may be able to find one with out ps easily, especially and earlier model, how ever with out air conditioning i believe will be a challenge.  the non ac alts are easy to find anyway, lots of na diesel cars had them

My 92 did not have AC but every mk2 TD I've owned had PS. PS isn't a big deal though, just cut the lines and pull the pump (or install the right rack)
