Yes, I have read the technical articles and also used the search function for "Difference 1Z ALH".

Can someone briefly explain the differences to the o.g. Show motor options?

I own a Golf 4 from 2000 (ALH) and now also an Audi 80 B4 (1Z) from 1994.

When accelerating gently with minimal load, I notice that the 1Z engine runs very rough in the 1000-1500 rpm range, while the ALH engine runs smoothly.

An bd. "The engines are equipped with a standard wastegate charger."

Thank you in advance!

Could you please repeat that??

The search function is really great:
/viewtopic.php?t=15409&highlight=alh+turbo
/viewtopic.php?t=16061&highlight=alh+1


Furthermore, the ALH must also be a solid block without any intermediate components.

However, the ALH has a VTG turbocharger, so please check it carefully.

Yep. I can only agree with the previous speaker. ALH does not have a secondary drive for the oil pump and the vacuum pump, and it has a VTG (Variable Torque Converter) charger.

Furthermore, the 1Z has different nozzles, as the ALH already meets Euro 3 (= YELLOW)...
