VW Confirms 6-Speed Manual Transmission for Facelifted Polo GTI - Carscoops

Looks like they finally caved to one demand, now they just need to fix the issues with the 1.4twincharge oil useage and everyone will be happy.

The twincharge will be dropped as well.

You thinking tweaked 1.8T engine from Passat/US spec Golf?

Hopefully they return to the 1.8T but i think it will probably follow a 1.6T route, given a lot of the other entries run them (Mini, Renault, Citroen, Peugeot etc)

I liked the 1.4L, I wish they could get the bloody thing right. It gave the Polo a great point of difference over the bevvy of 1.6L's in the class.

They're all reporting the boost from 132kW to 141kW but some sites still reference a tweak to the 1.4, others report it will be the 1.8T from the Octavia.

Meaning it will probably be something else, like a 1.6T.

Is there a 1.6T in the family?
(not counting the Caddy )

I believe it will only be a tweak until the new platform arrives.

That makes more sense, especially given the issues with the twin-charger covered in great detail elsewhere doesn't appear to be anywhere near as prevalent in Europe as here.

Really? Go read Briskoda and the Fabia RS problems.

This is what ETKA shows for 2015 polo - hope you can read it. No sign of GTI engines yet, but others are on.
