Volkswagen Transporter

2013 VW T5 for sale. 4motion, long wheel base 2.0L diesel, with a 7 speed DSG automatic gearbox. It has done 146,000kms and comes with summer and winter tyres. 


This van has some issues that need to be addressed to get it back to 100%


The issues:


-> The engine leaks oil (about 800mL per 1000kms). The cause of this has been diagnosed to be worn piston rings, which allows the oil sump to be pressurised pushing oil out where it shouldn't. I can provide workshop documentation from this diagnosis.


-> The Diesel Particulate Filter has had the filter element removed. The ECU was reprogrammed to hide this when I bought the car. This programming was lost and set back to factory settings during a software update. So currently there is an engine light showing as it senses that there is no filter. I have received a quote for a new filter fitted for 14,500kr.


There may also be other issues that I am not aware of, I am not a mechanic. 


The engine also had a lot of recent work done by the dealer before selling it to me earlier this year: (I can provide the documentation I have)

New turbo

New head gasket

New crankshaft oil seal

New timing belt

New EGR and EGR cooler 

New front brake discs, pads and calipers 

The rear of the van has been carpeted and the floor fitted with linoleum. There is a double bed which slides away to single bed size, and some shelving fitted. This can also be easily removed.

If anyone is interested in taking this on as a project car, I would love to pass it on to someone who will fix it and use it. The price is negotiable to reflect the amount of work that needs to be done.
