    Facelift Engine identification

    How do you identify the specifics of your engine? I know in my ‘97 1.5 BE it’s a 1.5 tfsi 150ps 100kW from the details in the owner’s manual. Is there anywhere to find any other detail before I approach the dealer? Could it possibly be a 1.5i TSI EVO 110kW EU6AG in my motor? Thanks in advance.
