Vw golf 5 bhy engine replacement

Post by Camzito »

Hi everyone i just want to find out I have a vw golf 5 2.0 Comfortline with the engine number BHY right, does anyone now if i can replace the BHY with the APK golf 4? My BHY engine needs a set of pistons but I don't have time for rebuilding the engine.It was basically burning the oil even tho 2 years ago I overhauled the engine.

Golf 5 engines were fsi. Golf 4 were not so unless younare going to go to a huge amount of work and somehow try to graft another management system in the that is not a viable option in my opinion.

@Camzito did you manage to find a solution. I have also blown my Golf V 2.0L 8v 85kw engine. I need an engine replacement. I would ideally like the same engine, but it seems that not many of the 2.0L engines are in circulation or they are still running fine.

BBX would be your best bet, it's basically the same engine but it's in the Polo and Ibiza
