Re: Power Plant for Volvo 850 Turbo

The Volvo 850 gasoling-powered 5-cylinder engine is absolutely, positively
not an Audi engine.  Anybody who thinks it is does not know beans about
engine architecture.  And I'll accept any challenges from those who object.
 Just don't tell me that some mechanic told you.  Give me facts.

However, the (Europe-only) Volvo 850 using the direct injected turbo diesel
5-cylinder engine definitely has an Audi 5-cylinder TDI engine under its
hood.  And sideways, to boot.
