As I am sure this has been aske before here we go again with a bit different twist to it...I have a 2003 Passat GLX 4 Motion mated with the 5 spd automatic tranny,the 2.8 V6 (160 kmiles) runs great for now but I am thinking ahead in case I will run in to any expensive repairs, and what is bothering me the most is the fact that this engine is very hard to work on.
I have seen an AHU swap in to a 1998 A4 which is the same thing as the b5 passat and this guy did it in his suburban garage...the transmission was a 5 spd 4 motion-quattro.Some fabrication was needed but it is possible to do it with low budget as well. I curious if anyone has a well documented link or post regarding this swap,that is being asked more often.AHU engines are cheap and with the help off an M tdi pump thing become a lot simpler .I am listening to anyone's input on this.One thing to mention here is that I do not need a factory like set up ,I am not that picky
Thanx for your input in advance
