Engine codes with them?

--- Quote from: "prothe" ---What's the difference between the 80 and 81 Rabbit?

It looks like VW just changed their rating system (number of notches) because the thickness stayed the same, only the suffix on the part number changed

Looking at the part numbers they all end in 383 except for 3 of them, where it is 838, is that a typo?

RabbitJockey:
what about tdi?  i've been wondering if i could just use a tdi head gasket on my 1.6

jimfoo:
Well if the TDI head, at least up to AHU, fits an AAZ, and an AAZ gasket fits a 1.6, then a TDI gasket fits a 1.6 as well.
