Phat VR6 3 Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 ummm I donno fella my dad has a 2002 gttdi and the badge says "dt red i" and is def a 150bhp one.. Shame about loosing the v6 but the gtdtis are RAPID and it feels nearly / as fast as the VRtbf im sure if you take the reg to a vdub dealer that they could use the computer to tell you which one it is Link to post Share on other sites

petervr6 0 Posted May 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2008 well its not bad about the same as the mk3 really but the diesel will be better for the weekend travel upto ipswich suffolk.dont think its the 150 model as it has no wood trim or any thing on the dash.

DaveMcK 0 Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 If you lift the boot floor there will be a sticker next to the spare tyre displaying loads of info- the power output should be on this in KW, if not then it'll be on page in the owners manual. multiply by 1.34 to get HP.

purple highline monster 0 Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 as a general rule.just red I is a 110 red D & I is a 130 and all red TDI is a 150 or 180but as said dealers dont always do this right, my bro just bought a mettalic beige (gold) 150 Bora Highline TDI and it has wood trim and all that, you can also tell from the engine bay without the code as the 150 and 180 have huge turbo intercooler pipes that run around the back of the block the less powerfull ones dont Link to post Share on other sites
