Golf IV is the name of the fourth series of the VW Golf . It replaced the Golf III in October 1997 .

With the fourth generation (factory-internal 1J), Volkswagen wanted to set new quality standards for the company's future products: the body is made of electrolytically galvanized sheet metal, and VW gives a twelve-year guarantee against rust perforation. Thanks to a new type of overhead engine suspension with a central pendulum support on the floor of the car, the Golf IV runs extremely smoothly, and engine vibrations are largely eliminated. Compared to the previous model, the gaps between the body elements could be reduced, which also benefits the quality impression. Pump-nozzle diesel engines and a CAN bus were introduced in ongoing production .

From November 2003 it was replaced by the Golf V in Germany . The estate version was produced until June 2006 and only then replaced by the Golf V.

In North America it was only replaced by the Golf V in 2006. It is still rolling off the production line in South America (end of 2011), but received a facelift in 2007. In Canada, this variant was temporarily sold as the “City Golf” parallel to the Golf V (which is called “Rabbit” there). The Golf IV was also externally changed from 2006 to 2008 and sold as "Bora HS" in China. On December 31, 2008, 1,558,955 Golf IVs were registered in Germany.

Golf GTI

VW Golf GTI
Rear view

With the introduction of the Golf IV (1J), a new GTI generation was launched. In this model, however, it was more of an equipment line like Comfortline or Trendline, so it was kept very simple for a GTI at the factory. The IV GTI can be recognized by its standard 16-inch aluminum wheels from BBS with cross-spokes and the fittings in a myrtle burl wood decor . It also has slightly more comfortable Recaro seats, some with adjustable leg rests. Externally, the Golf IV GTI was at times hardly distinguishable from the other models and offered the largest selection of engines (at times, more powerful ones replaced weaker versions). In its last year of construction, 2003, the Golf IV GTI was only available with the 132 kW engine (180 PS) of the 25th anniversary GTI and the 110 kW TDI engine (150 PS). The 180-PS variant stands out from the 150-PS variant with a red "I" in the rear emblem and other wheels (Montreal II). Due to the narrower tires, this GTI variant has a slightly higher top speed than the anniversary GTI (228 km / h instead of 222 km / h).

In addition, there was never a GTD on the Golf 4. This variant was called the GTI TDI.

Engine range for this equipment line:

  • Golf GTI: 1.9 l TDI 81 kW (distributor injection pump)
  • Golf GTI: 1.9 l TDI 85 kW (pump nozzle)
  • Golf GTI: 1.9 l TDI 96 kW (pump nozzle)
  • Golf GTI: 1.9 l TDI 110 kW (pump nozzle)
  • Golf GTI: 1.8 l 20V 92 kW
  • Golf GTI: 1.8 l 20V Turbo 110 kW
  • Golf GTI: 1.8 l 20V Turbo 132 kW (special model "25 years GTI")
  • Golf GTI: 1.8 l 20V Turbo 132 kW
  • Golf GTI: 2.0 l 85 kW
  • Golf GTI: 2.3 l VR5 110 kW
  • Golf GTI: 2.3 l VR5 125 kW

25 years of GTI

In 2001 a special model was presented: the 25th anniversary GTI, which stood out from the other models. On the one hand, it was equipped with a separate spoiler package (front and rear apron, side skirts and roof spoiler painted in the same color as the car) and darkened front headlights as well as a sports muffler with 90 mm tailpipe and 18 ″ ball-polished BBS alloy wheels. On the other hand, the interior was also given many unique extras such as its own Recaro sports seats with GTI imprint, leather steering wheel with three perforated spokes, red contrasting details on belts, steering wheel, gear knob and handbrake lever, a black headliner, pedals made of perforated aluminum and the one already in Golf 1 GTI used golf ball gear knob upgraded. However, the buyer was denied a few extras such as xenon lights or leather upholstery, but the 1.8-liter 20V turbo engine increased to an output of 132 kW (180 hp), a 6-speed manual transmission and the larger 312mm brake system compensated for this on the front axle and 256mm on the rear axle. The 25-year-old GTI was limited to 3,000 units. 1000 pieces each in reflective silver metallic, tornado red and black magic pearl effect.

Golf convertible

Main article see: VW Golf Cabriolet

VW Golf Convertible (1998-2002)
Rear view

The Golf IV Convertible are technically largely the previous model. It is therefore only a revised version of the Golf III Cabrio and not its own convertible based on the Golf IV .

The most significant changes in the interior included the lighting equipment (blue instrument lighting), the Golf IV steering wheel and the surfaces, which, with their grained surface, were supposed to give a higher quality impression than the Golf III. Otherwise, everything in the interior remained as in the predecessor. On the outside, the front headlights were changed, which now shone in the clear glass design like the Golf IV. The license plate was moved from the trunk lid to the bumper in order to get closer to the rear view of the fourth generation. The engines were all known from the Golf III.

  • Petrol engines: 1.6 l with 74 kW (100 PS), 1.8 l with 55 kW (75 PS) (until October 2000), 1.8 l with and 2.0 l with 85 kW (115 PS).
  • Diesel: 1.9 l TDI with 66 kW (90 PS) and 1.9 l TDI with 81 kW (110 PS).

From autumn 2000, only the 2.0-liter gasoline engine and the small 1.9-liter diesel were available.

The fourth (some also say “three and a half”) generation Golf Cabrio was manufactured by Karmann in Osnabrück from June 1998 to December 2001 . Some also rolled off the assembly line in Mexico. The last models were manufactured in Puebla in 2002 .

Golf special model "Generation"

When the Golf turned 25 in 1999, VW decided to launch a special model called “Generation” for its birthday.

The Golf Generation offers a combination of a sporty appearance and comfortable equipment. In contrast to the basic Golf model, the bumpers, side strips, exterior mirror caps and door handles are painted in the same color as the car as standard, as is the case with the Highline and GTI models. Another sporty detail are the “Montreal” alloy wheels measuring 6.5 × 16 inches with 205/55 tires. In addition, the door sill trims are black and silver and have the word “GOLF” on them. The interior has also been upgraded and offers, among other things, better materials and more unusual colors (for example decorative panels in blue / mesh, blue stitching on the leather steering wheel and shift bag). The Generation special model was the only model that could be ordered in the color techno blue metallic. It was sold around 24,500 times between 1999 and 2000 when it was built.

Golf R32

VW Golf R32
Rear view

The first Golf R32 was created as a planned limited edition of 5000 cars based on the Golf IV. After the initial success - the small series sold out very quickly , especially due to demand in the USA - Volkswagen decided to mass-produce the R32 and ultimately sold around 12,000 Golf IV R32 vehicles, 7000 for Europe, 5000 for the USA.

The R in R32 stands for Racing, based on the motorsport department “Volkswagen Racing” (formerly “Volkswagen Motorsport”), the 32 stands for the 3.2 liter displacement of the six-cylinder engine in VR design. The Golf R32 comes as standard with a sports chassis and a 20 millimeter lower body, 225/40 tires on special 18-inch aluminum wheels "Aristo" initially supplied by OZ and later by Ronal, sports seats with integrated headrests and 4Motion all-wheel drive as well as a six-speed gearbox; the dual clutch gearbox (DSG) was available as an option. Externally, the compact sports car Golf R32 can also be distinguished from the conventional Golf by three large air inlets in the front apron , by deep side skirts, a roof spoiler and by the two tailpipes of the exhaust system.

The six-cylinder engine has four valves per cylinder and an output of 177 kW (241 hp). The car accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in 6.6 seconds (with DSG in 6.4 seconds), at 2800 revolutions there are up to 320 Newton meters , the top speed is 247 km / h. The engine also meets the EU-4 emissions standard. The double-flow exhaust system , which was developed by Remus, is equipped with a vacuum-dependent flap control. Depending on the actuation of the accelerator pedal and the speed of the vehicle, the exhaust gases are partially diverted past the rear silencer via a control flap which is connected to the engine via a vacuum line. This creates an even sportier sound for the six-cylinder engine.

In mid-2003, small cosmetic changes were made, such as narrower-cut seats with lumbar support and a second seat seam as well as a change to the windshield (FIN). Small changes were also made to the ignition system and the rear silencer. This version is often referred to as the "last edition" by R32 drivers. In addition, the models sold in North America differ in their black headliner, standard sunroof, a softer and higher chassis, a second seat seam, different taillights, side marker lights, and conventional halogen headlights instead of xenon headlights .

Engines

For the engines 1.8 (92 kW), 2.0 (85 kW), 2.3 V5 (110/125 kW) and 1.9 TDI (66–110 kW), a 4Motion all-wheel drive could also be ordered. The 2.8 V6 (150 kW) and 3.2 R32 (177 kW) were equipped with the 4Motion all-wheel drive system as standard. A VR6-12V engine with 2.8 l displacement and 130 kW (177 hp) and 245 Nm was also offered in the USA.
