Caddy

Post by LeonC »

Hi. I just bought myself a vw caddy with a 2E 2l8v motor. According to the seller the engine is not std, but does not know what was done to it as it was his late brother's car. What i do know is it runs with a powermod system and is heavy on fuel when just cruising.

Welcome to the Forum, such a nice looking caddy. maybe take it to a tuner and have them take a look at maybe remapping or fine tuning. but power costs fuel unfortunately :driving:

Hello and welcome!

My 2E conversion was also quite heavy on fuel at first. A good remap fixed that up and the economy improved considerably as did the actual performance of the car.
