[Vwdiesel] TDI injectors

[David Cook]

Thanks James.

Yeah, I was looking at the link.  I had originally
looked at the upgrade nozzles that were actually about
$30 cheaper than the stock replacement ones.  With
those upgrade nozzles, I'm sure I would need to
upgrade the settings in the ECU with VAG-COM.

Now, if those nozzles are sold for all '96-03 TDIs, am
I safe in assuming that injectors that were bought for
a ~'02 Jetta would work on the Passat?  The seller
(someone on this list) thought their breaking pressure
might be slightly (~10 lb?) higher than on the '96
Passat's engine.  Said that might actually be better,
with better fuel atomization.

Thanks,

David
