« on: May 21, 2015, 10:40:27 am »
Hi , just after a bit advice from all you guys in the know, I've recently bought a non running mk 5 Fri, dsg, it's engine code is axx but I've heard the byd is the better of the two, just wondered if it's a direct swap or are there any issues to consider...thanks lads.

CDL's seem to be the best of the bunch, so worth holding out for if you can :)
