- '06 Jetta...TDI/5spd :) >>>now a '15 Passat TDI/DSG
Hey everyone, I currently own a 06 Jetta TDI with mods.....having issues that I can't get resolved and was looking for a newer used Passat TDI/6spd 2013-2015.....until the Dieselgate hammer came down. Now, for obvious reasons the used TDI market dried up (for now I hope).
Anyway, I am unfamiliar with the US offerings of Audi TDI's. I know there are 2013 to 2016 TDI Q5's. I don't really need an SUV, so what in the A series has a TDI in the US? I would prefer a sedan....not really too keen on the A3....too station wagon like to me....
I have been eyeing the Q5 TDI and I assume it has the same suspension as an A sedan.....as in brakes, springs, anti-roll bars interchange? My goal would be to make the SUV into a lower more sedan like ride...if no Audi sedan TDI's exist that is.
I do need to research the offerings of Audi and the aftermarket to be sure my mods (brakes/suspension) will happen....the tuning/turbo mods will for sure. Thanks in advance!
PS. That is one thing I just love about VW/Audi....many parts interchange...even with Porsche (calipers).
