A2 with 77PS (103bhp) 1.6 FSI engine???

[Boris]

Wonder if any one can help.
My 2005 A2 1.6 FSI has 77PS (103 bhp) printed on the data stickers in the car and the service book when it should say 81PS (110bhp).
Have checked 2 other A2 data stickers and they say 81PS.
My dealer says it is a typing error at the factory but I am not totally convinced.
Has anyone heard of a 77PS engine in an A2?
Thanks
Boris

Hi Boris
Welcome to the A2oc.
I had a look at some service info and was surprised to see a 77KW (not PS) listed. The engine code for this model is BDS.
The more common 81KW model which is probably the only one available in the UK is engine code BAD

Cheers Spike

Hi Spike
Thanks for your speedy response.
My engine code is BAD so the 77kw must be a misprint.
