Re: Syncro engine swap - DJ to AGG

Hello Patrick, I had the same problem since I started with an Air-con golf. The pulley is either 028121031K or 028121031E I will check when I get home if I still have the lable. But I think its the K version. You also need a new belts for the PAS and Alternator/waterpump. Look att this link it prett...

CAD drawings for WBX transmission

Hello, Im working on an adaptorplate that would mate the 2.1 WBX transmission to the Inline 4 AGG engine. I have found CAD drawings for the inline 4 (at least for the 1,9 TDi which is supposed to have the same boltpattern) But I can´t find any for the WBX transmission. Does someone have those or kno...

Re: Bostig Conversion, F0RD 1.8 Zetec

Good point about the differences between the US and Euro Zetec. ! The thing I liked about the Bostig was that it was easy to do yourself. I scraped the idea about the Ford engine, and have now decided to do the 2.0 AGG. I have tried to get the dieselparts needed, but the tank is the tricky one. A fr...

Re: Bostig Conversion, F0RD 1.8 Zetec // AGG 2.0

I have now searched and searched. This is what I´ve come up with so far. The AGG engine is not that hard to get, the diesel syncro parts however.. Can be sorted but goes for around 1100 euros on german ebay. But the hardest part to source is the Syncro diesel tank. - Is there someone making these ne...

Bostig Conversion, Ford 1.8 Zetec

I´ve been contemplating different engineswaps because my MV engine is not that well. leaks oil, leaks coolant, ECU preforms the "Vanagon syndrome" quite often to my delight :shock: I have looked at the Subaru EJ22, TDI and Volvo conversion witch is quite common here in Sweden. But every en...

Re: Weird suspension noise up front Syncro. (video)

Haha, yes it was Plage de Saleccia, the guidebook said you need a 4x4 to get there. But they should have said "You need a 4x4 or be french/Italian with a rental car".. I was overtaken by a peugeot 206 with a Avis sticker on it and Italian signs.. quite humbling when I used the whole road t...

Weird suspension noise up front Syncro. (video)

We just got back to Sweden after a 2 week trip to Corsica. Everything worked out perfect except for 4 episodes of the "vanagon syndrome" on the autobahn and.... Unfortunately, when going 14 kms off-road down to a campsite suddenly a teeth grinding noise appeared under the bus when we hit a...

Re: Tyres - what's best?

I have just got the new tires on 225/70 r15. No rubb at all, yet at least. (Only did some city driving back to the office) About the power loss: (if someone will read this tread in the future). Not that bad to me, but you will notice the difference when driving in the city. 40-50 km/h. 45 km/h is ju...

Re: No temp gauge reading? Out of ideas

I will definitely check the multiconnector. I have now tested with a new sensor (Just kampers), and I got a little movement on the needle on the new gauge (about just over the bottom white line). Then I tried with the old gauge and no movement at all. I have made a new connection on the wire at the ...

Re: Tyres - what's best?

Haha, Yup, I can agree that this tread has gone mad. :shock: Maybe because I (and probably alot of others) would like to feel sure on a 6-700 € investment. Now I feel that I have gotten answers to my questions. I will buy the 225/70 r15 tire and be happy about it, at least I can´t afford to buy anot...
