So who's the wiz with these vans then?

Is there a spares list available for download somewhere like wot we can get for ducati's?
How d'you tune the **** outa them to make them a bit more nippy?
Are they good reliable workhorses that'll play nicely 'til the sun burns away?
Any decent websites with bags of info like wot we got going on here?
Does anyone care?!!

Cheers dude, good site.
Mine's a 1.9td so can't be 'chipped' apparently... it is, of course, a white one!

How about an orange roof?

bradders · 31-Jul-2006, 22:00

yep - we use them and they last for ages!!

Is it a T4 or a T5? If it's a T5 1.9 they can be chipped, I know mine is! I'd be surprised if a T4 couldn't be, try looking here:

It's a T4.
Allegedly... the TDi can be chipped, the TD can't. I got a TD and it ain't too quick! Reading the forum posted by dcr, I'd need to wind up the turbo and add an intercooler which'd cost upwards of £600.

Nothing to stop me pimping it up tho!

I've Got a T4, but mines a 2,5ltr petrol... gulp
but there are loads of parts on ebay for them
ive fitted mine out with satnav, elec windows, cruse control, blacked out windows, central locking..... the list is endless
ive done over 70,000 km im mine and ive only had it since 2004, so far no real dramas only one drive shaft went a week after i bought it...

lowering should be easy as the only springs to replace are fitted to the rear, the fronts are torsion bars and just need re-setting, i never did mine as i fitted it out as a camper and i needed the ride hight
