Just a bit frustrating, looking back from other reports on the net and its been a known problem for years.... would have thought VW might have done something to fix the problem by now and maybe...
Well after 5 visits to VW to try and find it, turns out it has a stuffed steering rack. New one going in under warranty.... not good after only 50,000k's... since read some reviews on the net of...
Ive got a 2.5TDI. When are they normally due for replacement and is it a big job for DIY? (Ive done quite a few timing belts on various veichles before)
Hoping someone on here can look into something for me or may have some experience on this.
I purchased a VW Crafter, nearly 2 years ago now and at the time we requested the $500 option (and paid...
I have a bit of a dull rattle sort of noise coming from the R/H side, front of the veichle. Feels like its either in the suspension, steering or wheel bearing. Can sometimes feel it through the...
I use my MWB crafter for everyday use and carrying dirtbikes, its pretty ordinary on wet grass... but so are most 2wd veichles. Momentum is key, but as the crafter has traction control, as soon as...
I'm upgrading the stereo system in my Crafter, put 2 new speakers in the front doors the other day now ive got no sound at all,,, seems strange, does the head unit know somehow they arent standard...
Yeah 30k doesnt seem right. I realise they take about 9 litres of oil which is a fair bit for that size engine so im sure it lasts a bit longer than normal... but still 30k is a long time. They put...
My Crater came from the factory with the 120kw 350nm power option, how far below is that " offered power/toruqe " of your transporter? Im guessing the factory has released it in a slightly lower...

Trans/crafter T5 engine similar between veichles?
How similar is the T5 transporter engine to the crafter? Not alot of info around on the crafter that ive found for known issues.
So for the transporters is it still necessary to run the same oil,...
Thanks for the replys. Will check out brickyard aswell.
So you have to pay for the info i gather?
Really only after oil/filter change info at this stage, leave the rest to a vw/garage workshop.
Anyone know where i can find info on changing the engine oil on my crafter? Like oil quantities, filter location, part number etc. Want to change the oil between vw scheduled services in the book as...
Good plan, will check mine out, they gave me the numbers off the other one so will compare them.
Anyone know where i could find the part # for a crafter DPF?
Thanks
