Hello all,
I just purchased this audi 5000s 5 cylinder IDI non turbo and can't find any info on it at all.
I'm replacing all of the belts, filters, idler pulley and water pump.
I also just purchased pump timing tools to get it set up right.
What I need to know is what VW 1.6 parts interchange?
I'm guessing that the injectors are the same but what about the valves and pistons.
Anyhow I hope someone knows something about this vehicle as it is in good condition now and I plan to make it as new.
Eric
I believe that the valves are the same between the 2.0 5K diesel and the 1.6s of each variation.
I think, but it's murky, that the 2.0 pistons interchange with the 1.5 pistons. Apparently, despite the identical bores, the 1.5 and 1.6 pistons do not interchange. Not ever having had one of each side by side, I can't say for certain.
Injectors, exhaust valves, lifters, exhaust manifold gaskets, pistons and rods are same than 1,6D.
