This is one cool transformation. It's crazy how far it has come. Bravo to your hard work and tenacity running down all the leaks and getting after the tuning. You are an inspiration with all the crazy skills you've collected. A lot a guys are taking notes. Thank you for dropping scholarship on everything you've done!!
Congratulations on the progress with the TDI swapped Toyota, happy to hear you fixed the lifter noise and the fuel leak 💯
Keep up the good work man. I want to see all the details you put into it. I don’t mind seeing repeat re-tunning.
I am planning my build to happen in the new year and you’re the only channel I’ve found with the in-depth details I will follow.
Stevenson is the MAN on the TDI!!! Love this build.
Happy to see that truck running.I noticed that it was locked up, smart move.
Doesn’t matter where you live anymore.
I lock everything!
You can try to advance your pump timing a few degrees and that should help with the high egts. It'll help get the fuel to burn a little more complete in the cylinder vs allowing some of it to burn or escape to early into the exhaust. It helped with my 03 tdi a lot and doesn't smoke quite as bad as it did either
It’s hilarious bc it still sounds like a Tacoma from inside even with the diesel swap 😂😂
What an inspiration. From the TDI swap to the flatbed. Amazing work.
That truck is sick! I drive a 95 Toyota pickup, I wish I could get you to do everything to my truck that you did this one!
Austin, this build is just so freaking cool...Nice work!
Thanks!
Austin While you dropped this, I was using PRYME MX cleaning wheels. Love the long screw driver tip. Smart!! Shout out to Jeff for looking out. The truck starts faster than any VW ever. Looking forward to seeing you get your4.88 third member.
pro tip install two injectors then start it. then install the other two
why is this?
I saw another builder somewhere on here the other night but I dont know who and it didnt save history. He put "heat shields" around the intake and turbo to help lower egts. I thought you might craft some of this into yours at some point after seeing how well you craft your builds. I'm still plugging away on my ALH now installed but lots of wiring and coolant structuring to do still yet. Cheers from the south.
I would call kerma Tdi to source all your upgrades they are great
High pinion out of a land cruiser will work in your housing, did this in mine but I went with 5.29’s for my setup.
I have a FJ in the front now, just the wrong ratio
Check your return line relief valve it may need preasure correction or is clogged
When your truck is complete i would like to see you an #Devin race...im a big fan of both of u all channels.
Greetings, I would like your advice on TDI engines, which one do you recommend? Jetta 2003 engine 1.9l Alh, Jetta 2006 engine 1.9l BRM or Jetta 2006 1.9l Bew, which is better? Thank you, greetings from Puerto Rico?
Watching ur videos make me miss my old Toyota’s
I’m waiting for you to put a price on it! Even what your crazy number is
Damn, this is a slick ass truck. Great milage as well.
Thanks!!
This is awesome, I started following, love that your doing this greatness man!!!!
If you get a bigger turbo it will drop EGTs more air flow will cool internal parts better
I can look up the specs of course but what is the main advantage of the TDI engine over the yota 3.0 or 3.4L. I get that the MPG is a little better, but are you also gaining HP and torque?
The answer is yes to both those questions. The 3.0 has head gasket issues. The 3.4 is just underpowered
@@georgehennen4659 I have the 3.0 and the head gasket was replaced under the recall at ~100k miles. I’m now at 175k with no issues. So to my knowledge it’s not a huge thing, apart from the original OEM gaskets. I’m much more concerned about the well known head cracks of the 3.4 which cannot be repaired. So I’m looking at the TDI or even the new Cummins 2.7 crate diesel (which seems best since it’s a new pre-built). I’d probably prefer the yota 3.4 due to the ease of the swap but again, just seems like trading one headache for a bigger one..
@@georgehennen4659 do you need to swap out transmissions to make the TDI transmission work? I really want to do it but the previous owner bought a new transmission right before I bought it
Loving your videos man!
But could you please sit down when you do intro/outro?
You making me nervous running around with the camera. 😅
Thanks!
Look in junkyard for factory OEM 4.88s most late 2nd gen 4runners with auto trans n tow package had them as well as similar packaged 3rd gen pickups
Yes but they are low pinion
@@austinniemela damn I thought since they were v6 they would be high pinion
Only land cruisers had hi pinion but only in 4.10 ratio
lol Austin your beard changes by the day. been dealing with that all my adult life.
Have you checked mileage after all your updates?
Need more videos of this thing ripping
I missed it in the video. What is the MPG you are seeing?
23mpg with having a huge fuel leak!!
You didn't watch the video did you, you clever bastard.
It’s coming along great
Crazy how it’s snowy where you live but it’s still 80 something here in Florida 😢
Up here in Ontario Canada we have ice in the swamps and we already had snow 2 weeks ago. 3 more weeks and we will be able to walk on the lakes to go fishing.
We had 36 inches of ice on the lake I fish last February. I can't wait for winter. Its the best time of year if you love the cold and deep snow.
did you put a side banger engine in length wise?
The white one would be a perfect snow rig to build
What kind of power increase did you see over the Toyota engine. I’m wondering if it’s worth doing with my D21 Nissan
Great content I want my 03 Taco swapped.
Trying to swap a diesel into my 92 s10 dont know whats gunna be the cheapest qnd easiest. Was thinking om606 but mechanically everything that would be probably be expensive and hard cause where im from theres not really many mercedes mechanics
Wonder if you're getting heat soak in your intercooler. When you drive it gets good airflow and cools down.
If your not getting over 30mpg gearing is suffering towed a 2000lb trailer w my 06 tdi and still got 35mpg weighed car with trailer was 4760lbs
Of course fuel leaking doesn't help ..😜 love the build thou really want one myself .. Will have too settle fr tdi samurai 😉
Was still able too maintain highway speeds uphill without down shifting 65mph+ had a little fun didnt seem too slow it down much if at all dyno numbers are just a guideline under high load dynamics that a dyno doesn't calculate and i am dyno certified lol i forget that sometimes .but adding load too the engine makes the turbo work harder too a point obviously .but i think it makes more power under thease situations
Interesting, my Jetta TDI easily got 46 mpg as a daily driver.
@@CSAFMedia yea thats about right whats ur elivation . what year tdi mk3 did better on fuel
I know it's been a year but wouldn't a 4.88 gear give you worse fuel mileage? If you put a 3.73 in it you would increase your mileage and lower your at speed rpm
Maybe it has to do with the rpms the engine runs at?
It probably runs best with 4.88’s. smaller motors don’t make much torque so you have too compensate with a lower gear otherwise it’s gonna put alot more load and use more boost and use alot more fuel.
@austinniemela did you find good motor mounts for the transmission? Been a while since I watched all the videos, r150f?
The engine looked like an ALH ?
Checked Stevenson Tuning's site , can not find that it will work on 2003 ALH ?
Thanks
I am wondering what the reason may have been for not using the Toyota diesels that are in their trucks in many other countries? Seems that would have been the simplest way to swap a diesel into it??
They are more expensive, lack of parts availability, and still require the same amount of wiring. Plus the 1kz has been known to have their fair share of problems like potential headgasket failure. But the 1kz is a great little motor none the less.
How did you get the tach to work? was the truck a 4 or 6 cylinder?
I learned something from you... Thank you!!
Awesome!!!
what engine? and what car did it come from? sick truck man
First let me say that the truck looks beautiful mate! Second, coming from a complate noob...whats an "EGT?" I'm guessing it has something to do with emissions?
Egt- exhaust gas temperature
@@b13nissan ahh, thanks mate.
makes me want to put a a tdi in my 97 t100
Would love to drive cross country and let you put one in my 05.
Austin, give the Yota a car alarm with power lock actuators. So much better than having to use the key to get in. 👍🏼
I was shocked he locked it at home. No locks or keys on my rig.
Comments help with the You Tube algorithm. Keep talking friends.
Hello nice setup I have a question do you think is possible make this swap in a hummer h3 automatic transmission make sense or no ??? Thanks
Awesome truck dude 👍
Thanks man!!
I see a stereo in there but it appears to be in the place of the heat/ac controls.
What gives?
Don’t be holding out 😀
Nope not in the way of the heat controls!!
Hello , Austin.
Just an opinion - by the sound of the engine I would assume your turbo does not work - I understand you swapped with a bigger one , but I don't know what type and how it is controlled.
This is also a possible reason for high exhaust temperature - if it is a new unit it should work , so I would assume there is something wrong with the way it is "controlled" - I would assume your EGT is decreasing after you drive a while because the software is remapping the engine due to high EGT .
Also , an intercooler (or intake) leakage will have the same effect .
There is nothing wrong with the timing , or mapping ,I suspect , maybe injectors are not quite "equal" but they seems to work well enough , but definitely there not enough air .
Hope you do not mind .
28 psi and the turbo doesn’t work!!
Also injector balance is great, all couplers and piping is new, no leaks.
OK , seems to be a good pressure (1,9 bar -28 Psi ) , but I would go further and ask you if you are sure it is "relative pressure", not "absolute" one !
What that means is the device measuring your pressure has already extracted the value of atmospheric pressure from measurement and displays for you the" relative" value - if this is relative value(28Psi=1,9Bar) then your DIESEL engine should sound more like a (turbo)jet !(!)
If it displays an "absolute" value then the real pressure is somewhere around 13Psi, way not enough , and it actually "sounds"that way , but I could be wrong.
You could determine that if your pressure start increasing from "zero" or it starts from 15 Psi up.
If you are correct and the turbo works , then I would suspect something wrong with what is called "valve clearance" - it should be specific for that engine (I do not know what type is it) , I saw it has hydraulic lifters - or with the system that regulate the "valve clearance" via oil pressure .
Also if this is true , the inlet pressure should be higher than what you have .
Thank you for your patience .
@@gvaly699 yes lifters are hydraulic so no adjustment. My boost gauge measures actual pressure. So 0-28 psi.
So the pressure should be OK for now.
Turbo has variable geometry control , waste-gate control or no control( a picture would help, or I would try to find some images in your recordings) ?
If there is variable geometry , a faulty control valve will not adapt the turbine at low rev especially and the engine will be noisy , with low power and black smoke( like yours) - it will still make boost at high revs .
Regarding lifters , "hydraulic" does not means "no adjustment" by default - in your situation , with a fix camshaft touching lifters there is one possibility to use hydraulic lifters only for valve shock damping , in which case you will have "fixed" clearances for intake and exhaust , values that should be set according to engine specifications(lifters pre-load) - the values should be engine specific or lifter specific possible , if you are using modified lifters. .
Also , these "fixed" values will actually vary depending on oil pressure and you will have certain values with cold oil and another with hot oil - this could explain EGT decrease after driving a while - using thicker or thinner oils will have different effects also.
A second possibility would be to actuate lifters in a controlled manner via oil passages through cylinder head - all depending on engine type and/or management system . I do not know what engine type you used.
AFN 1,9??? Is it cold in winter with this engine?
950 seems not that bad, but I’m coming into it with only Cummins for reference. What’s acceptable range for the TDI range? I see peak egts of 15-1600 for quick blasts at 48psi on my common rail.
Cruise on hiway at 900-1000 depending on what kind of load. All at seal level.
No idea what my 328runs, but it’s stock.
I see 15-1550 in a solid pull in my tdi Jetta! But cruises at 600. The truck I can hold her wide and never see over 1300!
@@austinniemela so the 900 range isn’t so bad....what rpms in the Jetta vs truck? Also compare injectors, tune etc Jetta vs Toyo.
If you get a little more rpm on the truck at 60, will it drop the temps? I know when I get behind the boost mine tends to creep up. If I lock up the converter it will drop temps a bit.
I doubt you will see any difference on intercooler or other air management items. I bet it’s all in the tune and turbo performance.
My EFI live tuner recently revamped my fuel and timeing maps and it cooled it quite a bit.
@@austinniemela i wonder how your pyrometer is. Maybe swap with a diff gauge to see how accurate it is. Also where is your probe located? Same in both Jetta and toy?
@@jason328d6 close to the same rpm. Right around 23-2400 at 60. Truck has bigger injectors and turbo but car isn’t stock!! I might try a different gauge but probes are in very similar spots in the manifold!
We have pulled so much fuel in the tune and didn’t help like I thought it would. I really don’t think it’s intercooler, I would think it would want to get hot under full boost with a intercooler too small.
I’m not sure what turbo you have, but if you have a good intercooler, free flow exhaust/intake, and you lowered the gas intake with your remap, you might need a bigger turbo. There isn’t much else to do. A bigger turbo can lower egts a lot.
I have a 1856 turbo, which is pretty big for this motor. 2.5” downpipe and 3” exhaust
@@austinniemela yeah that is plenty. Idk, I would test your map sensor and maf. if they are sending the wrong signal it will effect the amount of fuel being sent, which in turn will cause higher egts, if it’s too much. Idk just throwing out options without really seeing your truck besides from your videos
Just finding your channel. Can I ask how much juatnthe tdi swap cost? I'm thinking about doing this to my jeep xj.
Excellent video. Where can I get a proper vagcom cable? my ebay one keeps not responding
I’m using a EBay cable and works great!
What hydraulic motor mounts did you use?
Iam new to this, what is the better vw tdi engine for these swaps, 99-03- the aih or bhw or bew?
Whats the engine code name of that TDi? How many hp doit it get?
Its been a cple months any update on fuel milages i feel you should be able too get over 30without much trouble ..i realize tires are the major factor but maybe it needs gearing. Or try a stock set just for testing purposes
Yes last tank i got 27mpg!
What’s the towing like
That valve cover 😍
Could you chuck in a vdo egt gauge dubble check that the one in there is reading right? Cheers from Aussie
I thought about trying a different gauge!
Yer man I was thinking the same thing.change the gauge!!!
At 110kmh my egt is around 300c to 400c around town 200c I’ve never seen temp over 480c
That’s a 1KZ-te turbo diesel! With 33” tyres!
Love the snow!! in Australia we only get snow above 800meters really I have seen snow in Melbourne CBD but that was in 1986 lol
I’ve never 4wheeled in the snow!!
But I’ve hunted deer in the snow just over 1100m
What the elevation where you are!!
Try a Ford ranger manual transmission mount.
Nice building bro, I want to know why you choose this engine over a 1KZ or 1KD, or another Toyota engine.
Vw are cheap and easy to find, cheap parts, huge aftermarket parts market, good mpg, great power, reliable
@@austinniemela got it bro, nice building, nice truck
Curious why the VW diesel with all the toyota options out there, Thanks.
Cheap, easy, light, great power and great mileage
Seems your injectionpump is too juiced up based on your idle rpm (if you havent tuned the idle speed up or if that is just cold idle speed) and EGTs. I would def check out how much it's pumping and tune it down abit. I'm just making assumptions based from my toyota diesel build, please correct me if i'm wrong since i only have experience with mechanical injection pumps.
My tach is off, it idles at 900 or whatever stock is!
Man Im seriously debating on doing this because I have a 4wd 2 Dr Sportage love it to death but it gets 16mpg in town 19 on highway and it's turning 3400-3800 rpms at 75 on the highway in 5th. A different tranny and this engine I should get close to 30. Something this small should get way more than 19 on flat ground lol.
big tires and non aero dynamic would make it get 19
@@Clayson000 stock tire size
@@TheMark9013 then 30 is probably possible but most likely only on the highway. and rear gearing would have to change, and you would probably lose 4x4
What fuel pump are you using ???
What year Jetta do you guys pull those diesel engines out of? Want one for a Toyota 4Runner third GEN 5speed
01 Jetta!
@@austinniemela Thank you
I wanna do this to my t100 but I don't wanna get in over my head
What's your freeway cruse rpm?
What’s the new MPG after all the updates?
Haven’t checked this tank yet, still burning it lol
Damn still burning??
@@rateromuerte2708 I know right?
@@austinniemela ?
Where are you from and can you build me a Toyota TDI
Ok its been a month have you got a better idea on the mpg? I am looking at a sas 93 with dual cases and a blown 3.slow to swap a tdi in and build a Australian style flat bed on.
The weather has been nasty so haven’t been driving it! I’m halfway through a tank and roughly 260 miles so should be really good!
What work was done to the 3 slow?
Would love to add power to mine
Thanks
@@ThisOldYota not the good kind of blown. it had thrown a rod and the engine was shot. we ended up doing a 3.4 swap and then sold it. still have to tdi i was going to swap bit its still in the jetta with over 350k on it
Hey Austin, what transmission did you install with the TDI? 5 or 6 speed? Is the truck still 4WD?
Yes 4wd using the Toyota transmission
@@austinniemela whats the top speed with the yota transmission
Isso é módulo p aumentar a potência ?
Do you think the TDI swap is possible on the FJ Cruiser?
Yes
Are you related to cameron niemela?
Hey bro my friend has a 2006 Tacoma V6 4.0 with a 6mt and the shifter is extremely sloppy. He wants to fix it. What is the issue ? Shifter bushings ? Where is a good place to get them ? Toyota dealership ? I want to replace them for him.
Yes bushings! Did the same in my 6sp. I believe I bought a set from marlin crawler
@@austinniemela thank you sir. I drove his truck today. I had to be really careful couldn't shift as fast I would like because it's so sloppy.
What rims do you have? I like them ❤️
TIS 20x12!
@@austinniemela Thank you
So what's the actual mileage, 23?
what did you use for transmission
R150f
Wattis the test top speed
Lol over 23mpg.. not bad !
you economy could definitely be better... my tdi taco gets high twenties to low thirties. It did drop to pretty consistent high twenties after I upgraded to an ARB bumper, probably from more tire exposure.
Yes i imagine not having a fuel leak i should get 25-28
I think your problem is the fuel pump. You should have no fuel pump giving diesel to filter. Even though it is a low pressure pump. I have 109 injectors bigger turbo and I have no leakage problems.
Ever heard of a lift pump?
I’ve always been a Volkswagen guy, it’s like a cult. You can’t leave once you’re in it. but I’ve never wanted to build a Toyota so bad.😂😂😂
ALH TDI’s are so sick, this is an awesome build!
Haha the vw diesels are addicting!! And built up they put down some power!!
Yeah, especially since you’re starting with 90hp lol
What seats are in your truck

I'm never under 1000 EGTs in my Jeep lol. But the slowest speed limit I have is 65 MPH
Holding up fine?
@@austinniemela yeah most of my driving is at 12 to 1400 degrees, and I'm 16,000 mi like that
@@austinniemela I've read about guys over in Germany taking EGTs up over 2000° track racing these TDIs, as long as you keep the coolant temp steady they can handle some amazing temps. I climb 600ft in 15 miles on my commute home which has my EGTs at 1400 a lot of the time and when there is a 30-40mph head wind on top I'm 1500° and as much as 1700° by the top of some of the hills at 75 MPH pushing 20-23PSI boost continually. 290k on the stock engine lol.
Dang thats impressive its staying in one piece!! Maybe 950 isnt too bad lol and i NEVER have seen 1400 under full throttle! Stays pretty cool under full boost
@@austinniemela Ya my intercooler needs to get a little bigger but if you want to see high EGTS, find somewhere you can hold over 20 PSI for over a minute, that's where the EGTs get crazy. Most of the time I need 15+ PSI just to hold speed, and that's continually for over 15 minutes
Update on mpg?
Last tank i got 27 MPG!
Engine is smaller 1.9. That’s why .body is bigger.
If you had no budget why did you not put a Cummins crate motor in it? Those things will run like forever and get amazing fuel mileage! But other than that it is a sweet truck!
Look at power/weight. Weight of truck, weight of engines. The 4bt engines are used in huge delivery trucks. 1.9 turbo tdi yields great mileage, power while saving a ton of weight. They are half the weight and in stock form 15 hp different.
I love Cummins. I drive both. The tdi engines are so much fun to drive
The Cummins crate motor is a smaller Cummins and is is popular to put in Jeeps, smaller trucks, I have seen a few in Toyota FJs etc..... They even make wiring harness for Toyota’s and engine mounts
pregunto ese motor es vw ????
