Author: A18NHH, Location: MiddlesbroughPosted: Mon May 02, 2011 1:12 pm ---- the phase changed so you're looking at things like phase two boot strip, phase two rear lights, alloys changed, head rests on seats went from solid to having a hole in them - others will tell you more specifics

137bhp and 138bhp

different engine codes, so its something to do with timing or tuning.
the 138bhp are lower emissions but more torque

#8: Re: 206 gti 138 year differences? Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Mon May 02, 2011 1:44 pm ---- I have a late 54 plate Gti, which has esp. Not many have that! Also the interior changed at some point, deeper front bucket seats. Mine had no spoiler though?!

Only GTi 180s have spoilers as standard, apart from 206's with the factory-fitted SP kit fitted
#10: Re: 206 gti 138 year differences? Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Mon May 02, 2011 1:57 pm ---- Loads of 206's come out of the factory with spoilers.

Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Mon May 02, 2011 2:00 pm ---- Between 1999 and 2003 the only mechanical changes were the move from RFR coded cars to RFN which meant 2 x lambda sensors were fitted. The exhaust systems became a 2 piece design rather than a cat, mid and rear section. I think the earlier GTi's up to 2000 came with thicker front ARB's too.
Front brake discs became thicker in early 2001.
Multiplexing was introduced on October 2001. So anything 51 plate onwards was multiplexed.
Sometime in 2004 traction control was added meaning they came with a motorised throttle body.

The seats came with very slightly deeper wings in late 2000 when side airbags came as standard. Rear head rests came around then too.
No SP parts were factory fit. They were all dealer fit options.

all GTIs from October 2003 had ESP by the way
#14: Re: 206 gti 138 year differences? Author: Davels, Location: NorfolkPosted: Tue May 03, 2011 7:15 am ---- I'm I right in thinking the 2xlamda sensor cars are the lower powered models? I thought the earlier 2.0 GTi lumps had 2 and were actually only 134bhp and the later single lamda were 137-138.

No.
Later cars have 2 x lambdas. Which car has more power I have no idea. I believe RFN coded cars might actually be 136bhp and the early ones 137/138bhp.
