Hello,
I have a few more questions again, hopefully someone knows something about  .
"Was the SEAT Ibiza, manufactured in 1998 with 110 horsepower, also available with the AHF or ASV engine?"
or were all of those things actually "afn" back then?
As far as I know, the Ibiza's engine mounts are the same as the Golf 3's, so the engine swap would be quite straightforward. However, what about the catalytic converter? Would it fit?
4) Does the speedometer fit the G3 in terms of the connectors?
I remember that they were the same.
Thank you in advance for your efforts! Man muss es nicht brauchen, aber man muss es haben!

Unfortunately, it's only vaguely related to 1).
Even the ASV in the 2000s 6K GP01 is mounted on all three original Golf 3 bearings.
So, I think they all fit the dimensions.
Oh, I'll add point 2 after all.
The catalytic converter looks very similar to the newer ones, with a long flexible pipe and a support bracket between the flexible pipe and the catalytic converter. As far as I know, it's a 038 model, which is what's used in the Golf 4.
I currently have that Ibiza "under my control." If you want to know more, I'll go check it out at my friend's place.

Don't stress about it...
I'll probably drive over in the evening to take a look. If they're on the 3rd layer, the spacing should be the same as in the G3.
I just found out that this tachometer fits, as some are being sold on eBay (suitable for G3, Ibiza, etc.).
How does the CAT (Compact Audio Transducer) work with the G4? Can you fit a CAT into the G3?
I'm just curious if there were other engine options available for the Ibiza.
"If it's an ASV or an AHF, I'll just leave it as is; it's too much hassle to register it. My TÜV (technical inspection) will complain about it, and I won't be able to get the necessary certificates for the engines..."
"Thank you in advance!" Man muss es nicht brauchen, aber man muss es haben!

I'm guessing it's the AFN engine, because Seat has kept that engine in production for longer than VW, and the AFN was even available in the Golf 3 Variant and Passat 3B in 1998.

Okay, then I'll stop by.
He said the turbo is broken, is it dangerous to drive with that?
If I had to, I would have it towed, since it's still running...
It would be amazing if that worked!!! Finally, a cool engine in that car  .
especially because I'm currently having problems with my car... Man muss es nicht brauchen, aber man muss es haben!

"Turbo kaputt" can mean anything:
- Vacuum hose slipped off, and the user doesn't understand.
- U.Dose opened.
- VTG, stuck or seized.
(You can still drive this far, but no further.)
- Wave stuck.
(I wouldn't buy it from here.)
- Wave turned off, turbine blades hit -> parts enter the intake manifold, engine.

The 110 HP Ibiza models were only equipped with the AFN engine from October 1997 to August 1999; afterwards, they were equipped with the ASV engine.
The ASV was later included in the 6K Gp01, which is the facelift model, but it's still based on the 6K platform.
The speedometer from the Ibiza fits, but not everything works perfectly. The instruments themselves function, but the pin configuration seems to be different. As far as I know, the turn signals don't light up, and I believe the handbrake light also doesn't work. The Ibiza speedometers have the MFA (Multi-Function Display).
According to the ET catalog, this catalytic converter with the long flex pipe was only used in the Ibiza 110 HP models with the AFN and ASV engines. The catalytic converter itself is likely the same, but the mounting brackets or supports are different. I have an Ibiza, and the Golf 3 AFN catalytic converter doesn't fit on mine.

Can the KAT be relatively easily adapted, or is it completely different?
As long as multi-factor authentication (MFA) is working, I don't care about anything else; I'll adjust the PIN settings as needed.
Do these levers fit the Golf 3? Or do I need to buy the MFA lever separately?
@ dieselmartin Why wouldn't you buy it then?
If parts had flown into the engine compartment, it shouldn't be working anymore, right?
First of all, a huge thank you for the help; it's not easy to figure all of this out on your own. Man muss es nicht brauchen, aber man muss es haben!

Not engine compartment, but engine.
If the turbine blades have scraped against the housing, you can't be sure whether and how many parts have broken off (although you can usually see "if" it happened).
But what happened to the parts?
Are they just lying around in the swamp of LLK, and are they (for now) not causing any further harm?
Have they reached the combustion chamber, and are they diligently "polishing" the cylinder walls there?
The risk would be too high for me, because then the entire cost of the renovation might be wasted very quickly.

Okay, I meant the engine compartment. But if they were in the combustion chamber, it should be pretty obvious right away that it wouldn't fit. I wanted to test the compression; I'm getting a device with an adapter for the glow plugs.
Is that really that dangerous?
If the wave is still intact, then I'll get the... I'll immediately modify the turbo, and then it will fit perfectly. Man muss es nicht brauchen, aber man muss es haben!

I can't tell you exactly! I only noticed it while looking for a replacement part! I think BOSAL has an online catalog that contains images!
You'll definitely need an MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication) lever, otherwise you won't be able to switch!

Hi,
"My engine seems to be having a problem right now; it won't start at all, and there's white smoke coming from the exhaust, which looks like a blown head gasket."
I've found a Toledo now, manufactured in July 1997, with a 110 horsepower TDI engine.
"How about this: can it be transplanted into a G3 system just as easily?"
The Ibiza was completely rotten.
I'm assuming it's also an AFN.
It's really important because I need to pick it up as soon as possible.
"Thank you!!!" Man muss es nicht brauchen, aber man muss es haben!

Sure, the best approach is to agree without seeing it and immediately offer double the requested amount  .

There was never any talk of attacking without warning.
"When I encounter something like that, I always start by connecting my laptop and thoroughly examining the engine."
But once again, it wasn't what I wanted.
By the way, you have to be quick when it comes to something like that, otherwise you definitely won't get the car. Man muss es nicht brauchen, aber man muss es haben!

Sorry, I misread that.
I read "is really funny" as an ironic reference to the seller trying to pressure you. Just like they always do: "There are other interested parties," "it's best to come by today."
