Don't know whether this has been covered before, but there is a sticker at the bottom of the drivers' door pillar of the 2.0 GT TSI saying that the power output is 220PS? I thought it was 200PS?

I think your car has the wrong sticker as 150 ps is 147 Bhp
220 ps (216 bhp) is exactly what my car was running out of the factory but I think the press release said 200 bhp

Interesting... but where is that sticker exactly? Is it below the catch on the pillar which holds the door locked? As I said, I just have a sticker about the first service... does anyone else have that?

It's right at the bottom of the pillar which has the lock on it, just above the sill.

i always thought the car was 197bhp
i remember from my time in vw that for a batch of cars they come through with no stickers on them. the dealership was sent lots of sticker sheets with all the different engine combinations on them for the dealer to stick them on. i can only think the dealer has done this and made a mistake

I have a sticker, but mine says 200PS. It's probably a mix-up on VW's end.

dealers stick those on as they come on a sheet in the handbook, so you may have them in there still, i'll have a look, i know some Edition 30s have a similar sticker with 230ps
we are looking at arranging a rolling road event so wathc this space we can benchmark a few cars that day

No sticker on mine - I feel cheated
Maybe its like the Ipod lead sager and the dumb dealers will start arguing its an extra cost option....

Do you mean it was under the service sticker?

Maybe they fitted the wrong engine at the factory and you've been done over!!!

Well - I did think for a moment could it be a 1.4Tsi engine in there! But is certainly drives like a 200PS and looks like a 200PS!
