Anyone any idea when the 170ps diesel engine will be available in the Passat? It's availabe to order for the Golf but can't find anything with regards to when the Passat's going to get it.

Anyone know if this is planned for the Audi A4, it would clash with the 2.5TDi as this has 163 BHP.

I'm sure it will be rolled out across the VAG range. The 2.5 is old technology and will eventually fade away. The new 2.7 and 3.0 common rail units are replacements for the 2.5 6 cylinder.

So common rail is new technology? i don't think so! Nothing new about common rail except it's fittment into cars a few year back

My understanding is that it will be available in the A4, and that the current 2.5 TDI gets replaced by the 2.7 TDI from the A6
