This is a redesigned 1.9-liter TDI engine. The 2.0-liter TDI diesel engine was the first Volkswagen diesel engine having four valves per cylinder, and it was used in the 2004 Golf, Passat, and other vehicles. Gray cast iron is used to make the cylinder block. The engine’s displacement was boosted by expanding the bore to 81.0 mm.
After driving his 4Runner with the TDI motor for a while, the car enthusiast came back to report that he experienced very few issues with the car. He was happy with the gas mileage, which was 31 MPG during the summer months. The power, he said, was “much better than a 22RE or a 3.0 even.” It produced about 200 lb-ft of torque.Worse mileage than a Golf/Jetta, because it's a bigger car with a bigger engine. Very nice cars once you dump $10k into them. (OK, that estimate might be a bit high. But, it's not THAT high.) Engine code is BHW. The 2005.5-2006 Jetta TDIs are bigger cars, with better suspension. Worse mileage, more size, better handling. You win some, you lose

I think a tdi would be better suited as they sit at a lower rpm so it feels a little more comfortable over longer journeys.
