Which engine type
Tried to order an oil filter online and I can't figure out which 2.0 T engine I have. Looked in the engine bay for stickers and didn't see the engine designation. Looked an the VIN and still can't tell. There are apparently 2 types
Trim Engine Type Fuel Type
TT L4 BPY - 2.0 Liter GAS
TT L4 CCTA - 2.0 Liter GAS
How can I tell which engine I have?
Can anyone tell from the VIN TRUAF38JX81012296
2008 tt 2.0T FWD Autostick

FYI for anyone else that needs this info
Tried to google an answer and found some VIN decoders that didn't identify the engine type.
Found the engine type on a sticker on the timming belt cover. See below
It’s very common for Audi and Volkswagen models to have several engines with the same VIN code for the same year. Normally, these codes are three letters, but I have seen some 2008 Volkswagen engine codes with four digit engine codes.
Regardless of whether you have a three or a four digit engine code, to make sure you get the correct Audi or Volkswagen engine you have to know the engine code. There are a few ways to find it. Keep in mind that this is based off of my experience only – if you know another location the engine code can be found, please share it.
1. In some years of VW and Audi vehicles, the engine code is on a sticker located on the engine’s timing cover.
2. For many years, the engine code is located on the apron at the front of the engine compartment.
3. In some years, check a sticker located on either the driver’s door or the frame the door closes into. Normally, this is the sticker that also has the VIN.
