Any more info on what engines will be superceded? or do you have a link to the thread?

For the Mk 6 GTI I expect the 2.0 TFSI (turbo petrol engine) to be the new version that has chain drive to the camshafts (but without the variable valve timing the Audi version gets). The US Mk V GTIs have been getting this engine for months.

I found this on another Mark 6 forum.... not sure if this relates to any of the current 1.4 TSI's

I think the engines being replaced are 1.4 (which we don't get) and 1.6 which has already been replaced in OZ by the 1.4TSI

A salesman at Austral VW in Brisbane told me toay, that we aren't getting the GTD 125Kw diesel............

Golf 6 in UK market have bigger selection of engines, a few of which are "older" and thus will be replaced in the near future. But the cars for the Australian market use newer, revised powerplants.
