As far as I know the engine was only manufactured for Volvo's cars and vans, and VW/Audi didn't use it themselves, but if they did you can be sure there would be some differences, so play it safe and stick to parts with a Volvo part no. Roy

Roy The Volvo engine is a modified Golf engine so it can't have been fitted in a car before 1985.

Audi 100 not old enough!

Never saw under the bonnet But presumed it was inline FWD being Audi. Can't imagine it would go transverse! I had an A reg (83-84 if memory serves me right) LT 28 Van with the VAG 6. Are you sure the later Audi & golf's are not cut down re-worked 6's? Regards Paul. Last edited by Paul H and D; Jan 1st, 2008 at 15:33. |

Looking at spare parts the first use in a VW van I can trace is 1986, but it could have been 1984 with differences that make it not worth making parts for now. I suspect it may be that VAG had a 6 but it they needed better emissions to suit Volvo and that meant a new engine. On the old Audi 100 as far as I can find out it always had a four or five cylinder engine even the petrol. That's why I think it wouldn't go in. All the photos of the old model that I've seen show that a five cylinder engine completly fills the engine bay. Roy
