I'm after the torque settings for the ACR/AVY direct drive oil pump to block bolts.

Hi everyone! I had problems with starting the engine, and performance issues, and I realized the crankshaft position sensor was unplugged. Where should I plug the sensor in? I found the sensor and the wire, but idk where the other end goes.... I couldn't find any info about this, just the sensor location... Thanks in advance!

Hello Polo people, Im looking at putting a 1.6 AVY (GTi) engine into my mk2f coupe running standard injection/management and have it looking OEM so alot of wiring to sort out but the main problem that iv got is getting around the fly-by wire, I know you can fit a AFH throttle body but that's not really away around it because the ECU will still think it's fly-by?? Any information would be great.

Hi I've got an avy and an afh engine. I'm doing a bit of a hybrid. But looking today and the bolt on breather on the block is really unsightly. Is there a blank or an adapter to put a little filter instead. Any ideas

Rocker covers on the 1.6 GTI. It’s an AVY but the Lupo GTI. Figure it’s gonna be the same and I trust the knowledge of folks in here more than they Lupo groups... GSF list sealant as opposed to a rubber gasket, is that the norm on these? My partners seems to be using a fair bit of oil and was going to try replacement of gasket first as it does look like it’s leaked... but seems as though there isn’t one? Also does anyone with a GTI find that they use any oil in general? Showing a few ill-looking symptoms, IE a bit of mayo under the cap and smoky exhaust as well as previously mentioned oil usage. But dubious to diagnose failing headgasket as you do see the odd symptom at this time of year. Small flecks of oil out the exhaust have me torn between diagnosis though... normally I would be thinking the headgasket at the point of the displayed symptoms but it’s been using oil and a tad smoky the whole time she’s had the car (4 years)... Engine is on 120k.
