The Link G4X TTX is a plug-in ECU for Volkswagen Group 1.8-litre turbo engines on the PQ34 platform, such as the first-generation Audi TT. It sits in the factory ECU location, takes the factory connectors, runs the factory electronic throttle on its own and adds an onboard MAP sensor. Link has confirmed a short list of cars and engine codes, shown below; other 1.8T models are likely to fit but are not confirmed.

Fits

  • Audi TT with the AJQ engine, 1999-2002
  • Volkswagen Beetle with the AWU engine, 2005
  • Volkswagen Passat 1.8T, 2000
  • Volkswagen Golf with the AUM engine, 2001
  • Manual transmission only

Before you order

  • Manual transmission only.
  • Your factory ECU must have two connectors with 121 pins in total.
  • The engine must be the 1.8T, and the drivetrain front-wheel drive or Haldex-based 4WD.
