Your car should have the BWA engine fitted .

I do have the BWA engine fitted. But I don't understand why the other bits say diffent. Do you know anything about this?

I haven't got round to asking vw but I will tomorrow because il be booking my car in for a cam belt. I asked the pervious owner as I bought it privite and they said they haven't had any new engine Put in. They bought the car off the original owner just when the warranty ran out so if it's had a engine replaced by the first owner vw must of fitted it i would of guessed, but if I remember you said the BPY was for the American market. Would you be worried about its saying BPY in the car but having a BWA engine fitted?

No, the engines are identical.

Not sure I understand what you mean? Can you explain. What I mean is on the service book and under carpet in the boot it says BPY but on the timing belt over it says BWA, that's what I was asking if you would be worried about this if it was your car.

I wouldn't be worried since the nuts & bolts side is correct,it's just the document side is a puzzle and that must have been done by VW  one assumes!

Still keen to know the answer to this one as the profile stickers are not normally wrong (from initial build)!
