Hello, I got a welcoming email from VW congratulating me on my new GTI purchase a week or so ago. It said "2015 Volkswagen Golf 2.0 GTI 155TSI M6F" in the model description. Anyone know what the 155tsi m6f is about?

1.4 with 170 hp is a twincharged engine, turbo and supercharged, its the same engine as the Polo GTI and can get it in Golf GT in Europe, which is one step below from Golf GTI.

155kw......its an EU power measurement (Kilowatts). Its 210hp roughly (which is the regular GTI power output in the US I believe because of the lower grade unleaded fuel). 6MT means 6 speed manual, F maybe an indication of front wheel drive?

er NO!

That engine is not in the Golf or the POLO as old tech & had problems!

Golf & Polo get 1.4 turbocharged 150PS engine in GT spec.

Polo GTI has 1.8lt turbocharged 192PS engine.

:cool:

LOL, pretty sure I got a 2015 GTI here in the states. You're saying I got a smaller engine? Its def the 2.0. Can you even get the polo or smaller GTI engine here?

What I purchased:
2015 GTI S, 6MT.

OK this makes sense, the 155kw threw me off. Anyone else get a welcome email like this?

Anyone? I'm assuming I have the normal GTI engine? Is there a step below engine in the GTI line I dont know about?

Haha sorry guys prob sounds ridiculous. I'm just referring to the above poster who said I had a smaller polo engine? Isn't there only 1 engine for the U.S. GTI? Not including the PP tune. Just wondering what that weird code was and how it applies to my engine?

Yes. Only one engine. There are only 2 (gasoline) engine sizes across the Golf range in the US. 1.8 TSI or 2.0 TSI. Then of course you have the 2.0 TDI.

Apologize if I didn't pick up on any sarcasm, but was Tkulhanc134 just messing around? I'm new to vw so if I'm taking things too seriously, sorry!
