Vw golf 1.6 tdi 115 bhp

MANSFIELD · 2018-01-12 11:02:49

I was thinking about buying a Vw golf 1.6 tdi 115 bhp . I have a 2004 vw golf 1.9 tdi 105 bhp and was wondering would the vw golf 1.6 tdi 115 bhp have similar power / torque as the 1.9 vw golf 105 bhp ?

They have similar real world power but the way it is delivered is different. The torque in the 1.6 like most modern diesels is spread more evenly across the rev range than the old school 1.9.
