Hey guys, I just joind the forums today. I own a 1996 Seat Ibiza GTI 2.0L 8V. It is the exact one off "The price is right" and it has been 'handed down' to me.
I get my P's in less than 3 months and wanted to ask a few questions
1. Can I use synthetic oil? It has had mineral in it, and it has just clicked over 170k. (I was told not at VolksWerke(Greensborough, Vic)
2. It is an 8V engine, can you swap the head over to a 16V without stressing the engine or losing reliability? Anyone know the cost?
3. Do worn engine treatments, injector cleaners etc work? Its run 95 octane.
p.s anyone got a manual for it?
Thanks guys.
