ADR/AGU engines - what models fitted to? Normally aspirated ADR was in whats cars? Passat, A4, Golf IV? other..... Was the AGU fitted to anything other than early Golf IV I am looking for a large port cyl head for an engine rebuild and need to know what cars these engines were fitted to.... Cheers Bill

Thanks for this info... mucho appreciated. The search continues. from the locked post>>> A3 1.8T 1998-1999 AGU GOLF 1.8s 1999-2001 AGU is this non turbo ?? {ADR is the atmo motor, AGU is the turbo one in early golfs} Not sure if this info is for UK spec Skodia Oct 1.8 T AGU 08.1997 Skodia Oct 1.8 T 4x4 AGU 05.2001 Edited by: badger-bill
Bill, from my research, be careful about the ADR - the later models of ADR have VVT and smaller port heads I reckon you'll be looking for one out of a very early pisrat
Bill my late 2000 Golf 1.8T is an AGU! Think it must have been on the crossover point between cable and DBW! Alan
Bill have you not got a autodata technical data book?they list all eng codes,years ect with all the settings
MK1 - the autodata technical book, how up to date are they??? I'm after some data about a VW engine that came out in the last 6 mths, but finding it very hard to find. I have access to the Autodata books, but I dont reckon its that up to date
mine only does up to 99 models [:^(] ile update it when I work on newer cars more regulary maybe gvk will have the uptodate version at work
Our book is 2001 (tight a55ed boss) Those books are only a guide for servicing bits and torque settings, they're not 100% accurate with the dates and stuff, I'd say ETKA will be the best bet.
AUM is smallport DBW I think... Got a ported one of these a while back... Looking for largeport. Bill
Blimey... changed to VVT and smallport and kept the same engine code.. Ewww. Thanks for that. When did they drop the ADR atmo motor... I remember it being slated at the time and a 2ltr crossflow 8v replaced it in the model line up. Bill
Yup, agree with Gary on the autodata book there, try etka. Change of topic slightly, is it really essential to have the big port head for NA use ? I didn't think the difference was all that much to be honest.
The port sizes on the inlet are very different... I'll take a piccy of the Newsouth gaskets for th small and largeport... Little and large show
Hi all i've got an AGU head in the shed i'm not using it, so if you want it first come first servered!! Only jokin God i'm so funny!!
Bill you should be fine with an AGU engine code they are the 1.8t I beleive they where the last engine that was Non DBW around 1999/2000, The next code I beleive was the AUM code which would signify that you would have a DBW VVT K03 sport engine, better for getting more power on a cheap budget but restricted when you want to go for BIG horsepower if 500 odd is not enough. HTH P.S. Do Jabba not have this info for you ?? Edited by: The Walrus
Cheers guys. AGU is the cyl head I need (2 of em I want really) Ringing around breakers askign about engine codes is'nt great but if I can spec car models and engine type it helps suss wot motor's in what car. Helps the search. Largeport 20V head is what I am after, in whatever donor car it came from. Am considering mods for the dbw Ibiza... so will match parts to get a Dbw lageport all being well. (one day down the road) cheers bill
