150 Bhp Differences In Specs To Others?

[Ginettamad]

I've Just put some money down for a 55 gal Ghia 150ps for an upgrade from my trusty 110 afn gal.

 

First question is cambelt as its 5 years old in October but 42k miles on it. So should this one be at 60k or 4 to 5 years whatever the miles?

 

I could not locate any proper evidence that its a 150ps ASZ1 spec but their Autotrader reg check confimed it.

It did feel a little quicker than a couple of 130's tried so fingers crossed. I looked for the code sticker in the back wheel well and on the cam cover but nothing?

 

Can anyone provide a list of options the 150 had and a list of the specs that were upgraded? Was it just the engine?

I notice the two 150 cars I've looked at both had Chrome roof Rails which seem rare?

Cheers for now and I hope its a good as I had to pay top wack for it and drive several hundred miles!

I always thought the 150ps engine was the BTB one and the ASZ was the 130ps Engine.

 

I would definitly check the engine to make sure that it is a 150ps.

 

PM me your reg if you want a definite answer.

Not sure re BTB reference so will look for that but cant find any of the markings with the AUY or ASZ (130) or ASZ1 is meant to be 150ps. My insurer did come up with 150 however as did another reg check so fingers crossed.

AUY is 115

ASZ is 130

ASZ1 is 150

 

The 150 was just an engine option, not a spec level so there isn't anything special in terms of trim you can look for.

Hi, Similar issue here for me. I have been the proud owner of my Galaxy for a couple of years now, When i bought it i was told it was the model with the litle extra oomph but i didnt realy take any notice ( its a car for the mrs to ferry the monsters about in)

 

I have decided to do the filters myself this time as i got stitched up big time last time it went to the garage...

 

I dragged out the Reg Docs and it has the engine varient listed as the ASZ1 and as you have said th is the 150bhp model

 

When i go online to Euro carparts and enter the reg all its coming back with are parts for the ASZ 130bhp model

 

Do I take it these are these are compatible? Or should i just bite the bullet and put it in the garage and let them sort it? Which i cant really afford :)

 

Anyways thanks in advance guys :)
