Currently I have a mk4 golf 1.9tdi 130 of estate.

I'd like a 4x4 version(ISH) in 1.9tdi flavour, not interested in the 2.o,2.5,2.7 or 3.0 diesel thanks.

I've done a bit of a search but can't find a definitive list of modules for any of the marques in the bag group.


If not I'm probably looking at a scout or yeti but I'd have to.uprate the oil pump at least for peace of mind
Any Ideas?

I actually can’t think of a single one.. sorry. I’ve asked chat GPT and it echoed as much.

Pretty certain there was a B6 A4 that came in 1.9tdi quattro flavour.

here was a 4motion golf estate in Europe as far as I'm aware.

So if I change, it's a dog wagon/get me to work when it's to crappy for the bike type vehicle , so scout? Yeti? A4/6 quattro, trying to stay low road find licence too

Scout or Yeti. Scout fairly thin on the ground.

Anything with that engine is going to be around 20 years old or more these days. Skoda were the last to retire it, and there were 4x4 versions of the Octavia and Superb with that engine. Although not sure if they were ever available in the UK?

Yup, there certainly was. I very nearly bought one before settling on a lovely blue Passat 1.9tdi 4motion estate with full tan leather interior. They're all over 20 years old now so probably pretty tired if you can even find one.

OP - any reason for discounting the 2.7 and 3.0 tdi? I had a manual A6 3.0 tdi and the engine was significantly less hassle to run than the 1.9 in the Passat and obviously much, much faster and smoother. Took it up to 240k miles with no significant engine issues.

Mainly because I do most of my own maintenance, higher road fund and worse mpg
