Best Answer

There are two ways.

All Volkswagen four-cylinder engines have the same bolt locations, flywheel diameter and so on, so theoretically the process is to remove the gasoline engine and put the diesel in its place. You'd also have to change all the engine control electronics, the exhaust system, and anything else that differed between gas and diesel engine cars.

The more advisable way would be to trade your car in on a diesel Beetle.
