  1. 2.0T FSI, TSI, and TFSI (EA113) Engine Forum
    So I have a 06 GLI with the 2.0t fail in it. There’s some sadness in her for sure. My question is regarding what to buy when I make the purchase of her engine. Looking in my Bentley and online it doesn’t specify if it’s long or short block. What one does it take? It’s Mexico made 1k code bpy...

    Context- I have a 2007 GLI with ~161k miles on it. I bought it at 145k miles from a trusted mechanic who took care of all the common MK5 issues he found, and since then, I have replaced both rear brake calipers, repaired the exhaust (failed stock flex pipe), and replaced one rear wheel bearing...

    I recently bought a mk5 gli and it's not looking the best. It's an 08 6mt (2.0 fsi) with around 94k miles. The 2 big problems are rusted through rockers and an oil leak coming from the turbo. Besides that it's in pretty good condition interiors nice, shifts very well, and has a good amount of...

    I can't find the part numbers for this bolt and the retaining clip. Im missing 2 of the bolts and one of the clips. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? or any other part# that would work for the two. All the ETKAs online show them but have no part# listed.

It had its problem but it was a budget car and i am a mechanic by trade so small problems didn't really bother me. Then the other day a...

    Hello. I have a Golf MK5 with bixenon headlights.
