Re: Caddy 2.0L diesel engine upgrae
I have a 2017 Caddy 2.0 TDI manual and had Stage 1 software done by Insane Racing.
It absolutely flies. No other mods were done at all.
What is the engine code on your Caddy?

Re: Caddy 2.0L diesel engine upgrae
U probably have the 2.0 SDI and not a TDI. Non turbo, no wonder u feeling it so slow.
BDJ seems to be a n/a PD engine..
Fitting in a 1.9 PD TDI engine should be a straight fit regarding the mountings. Electronics will be the problem (wiring loom, ecu, cluster, ignition and key)
If u want to do a swap u rather buy a smashed up 1.9 tdi caddy so u have all the bits and pieces u will need..

When a car tailgates me, i slow down - then floor it and give them a cloud of diesel smoke to choke on

Re: Caddy 2.0L diesel engine upgrade
Another question could you not fit turbo and Manifold from 1.9 to the 2.0L and then do software .Any suggestions would be appreciated

Re: Caddy 2.0L diesel engine upgrae
Jetta 4 and caddy are different platforms.. its not gonna be easy to swap things. If im not mistaken the cluster is different, the ignition will be different. And then the modules might not communicate with each other which will be a headache
Hence its better getting a caddy.
Turbocharging the sdi - i dont know.. the turbo might fit, but i doubt the ecu will be able to control it..
Also, i dont think the motor will be strong enough for boost

Life is too short to be riding around with 50kw and a heavy chassis.

Re: Caddy 2.0L diesel engine upgrae
dont bother with the mk4 golf/jetta tdi platform. you need to put a fair amount of money into that ahf motor to see anything over 110 kw. also its a VE type motor so fuelling is an issue.
