Engine Codes And Instrument Panel

[Guest casper1]

im new to 205's, have a few questions.

 

its a H reg (1990) 1.9 gti.... what type of engine is it? iv noticed different engine types like tu and xy or something, just wanted to know which was which.

 

and on my instrument panel what do all the dials mean? bottom left is petrol, i know that one, and the rev counter and speedo, but what are the other 3 (top left, bottom right and bottom left.)

 

thanks Luke

All the GTI's were fitted with XU engines, the 1.6's are XU5, the 1.9's XU9.

 

As for gauges, on the left is oil pressure, on the right are oil temp and water temp.
