OBD1 engine in 1995 highline with OBD2 braking system ????


Recommended Posts

Hello,

Just got a highline VR6 1995 plate has no plastic trim so assumed it was OBD2, just started poking about at everything (as its going to Nurburg this month and then a few track days back home), and noticed that the engine is definitely OBD1 but the braking system is OBD2 i.e. discs 288mm and later ABS unit.

Has this been noted on the any other cars? dont want to think that some ones done an engine swap!

Also then should i be using Vagcom to cycle the ABS unit when i change the brake fluid? (strictly not an engine question, but didnt want to duplicate threads)

Cheers Dan

yeah the 95 cars mate ( and others) can have bits from both on them it's only the engine that determines obd1 or 2 mate :) mine is 1 but as an obd2 maf and other bits and bobs on it !!

as for the brake fluid - I didn't use vagcom when I replaced my ABS pump and therefore brake fluid last month mate

Cheers for that, owned Corrado's before first MK3 golf, so just checking all angles, bonus as well is that it has no brake compensator on the rear beam, got to do the do rear bushes this weekend, Corrado was a pig cos the brake compensator was welded to the beam with corrosion,

Asked about the ABS as some on here was on about getting Vagcom linked up to cycle the ABS pump on the later type systems???

cheers
