Engine code help
« on: July 07, 2013, 12:49:10 pm »
In the book and under the carpet in the boot it has a a code BYP but on the timing belt cover its says BWA, just curious why this is? Is the BYP a gearbox code or engine?

Anybody??? I'm thinking the engine has been changed so I guess that means the mileage on the clock is different from what the engine has done.

Have read of this link

http://vag-codes.info/files/engines/vw-engines.pdf

It makes no mention of any engine code BYP!

In fact I don't recognise the code for either gearbox or transmittion.

You could be worrying over nothing.

Came across this site

http://vag-codes.info/

Again still nothing on that code - Where you getting the information from?

BWA is what I would of expected.

What year is you vehicle registered?

The car is a gti mk5 on a 07 reg. on the timing belt cover it's says BWA. But on the service book and under the carpet in the boot their is what kinda looks like a reciept suck down on the floor and in the book, they both have "eng.code/trans.code" then next to that it has BPY with no mention of BWA

Is it the first or last BYP or BPY?

Tried this
http://igorweb.org/equidec/default.aspx

And it showed nothing - you best post a picture of both service book and boot sticker and we'll try and help!

Hope it works and it ain't the best pic. This one is from the service book and it is the same as the one in the car boot.

BPY engines are meant for the US market...   :confused:
In Europe we get the BWA version.
Without traction power is nothing!

Well you learn something new all a time - strange about the book though and why it's got an American service book then?

Could it be a mistake by vw putting the wrong sticker in? Would they be able to shine any light on this if I ring them do you think

Your car should have the BWA engine fitted .
