VW sells a Syncro(4WD)Diesel Eurovan in just about every market in the world except North America. I've been doing a little research about importing a used one and customizing it as a camper. This van comes with 5-cylinder, 2.5 liter TDI. Now I am trying to assess the problem of repair parts acquisition. Can anyone tell me How Different this engine is from the 1.9 liter? I mean, does it share parts in common? What engine parts are most likely to fail in the first 100,000 miles of use? I've heard it rumored that these engines exist in Canada -- any truth to this? Does anyone know of European parts distributors who would sell overseas, priority mail? Is it possible to get microfiche or computer inventory software for this engine model? These are probably questions for some of the motorheads who compiled the FAQ pages.
Corollary question: I've heard that VW is releasing a new mini-van, at least in the European market. Has anyone heard if they are planning to continue to make the T4 Eurovan or update it?
Thank for this website!!
