Hi all
Probably a silly question but on a t6 dsg what is the best engine out of the 140 and 150 the newest one. as there is a big difference with the price I want reliability from coming from a Renault trafic.any help would be great.
 
I've got the euro5 140 with DSG and it was fine, i think really the main difference is if you want the ad-blu of the euro6

I've remapped mine to around 170 -80 bhp and its perfect in my opinion
 
140 euro5 is prob more reliable as its the T5.1 engine carried over so well developed
150 euro6 seems a lot more problematic since the intro of adblue (albeit small niggly probs)

Having driven both the 150 certainly feels faster and a bit more urgent on the throttle but im more than happy with my 140 and would do the same again (unless i needed to go to ULEZ places ! )
 
If it's important or not eu6 means charge in the low emmsions zone in London... I'm happy with my 150

Hmmm well it would be very rare for me to go into London the place is a nightmare to get around its more the relatability of the two different engines really I can save about 5k by getting the euro5 it's bad enough paying the vat for private vans.
