1986 VW Vanagon Westfalia Camper

You are looking at a 1986 VW Westfalia Camper. This is essentially the final version of the Westfalia Vanagons the way they were built until 1991. It has the stronger 2.1 liter water cooled engine, the newer ducts and the cooling system like all the later models ('86 and up) have. It is in nice condition and we have had it serviced at a local VW shop. Amongst other things, the following was done: Engine compression test check (Checked out very well), Replaced overflow and extra coolant tank, Flushed old sulphate free coolant and replaced it with new sulphate free coolant (important if you do not want your engine walls to corrode), Replaced ingnition and had the central locking system repaired. It is a very clean camper since it is a California car. It has original paint and it has virtually no rust with two exceptions, which are as classic for these Vans as the vans themselves: One quarter size rust spot under the front windshield and one also about quarter size rust spot on the bottom right hand side of the rear window. The rear window rust has a little hole. There are a couple of dents in the driver side door but nothing major. Everything works as it should and the AC blows ice cold since the previous owner had replaced all the ducts and the AC unit. The refrigerator works fine on both settings: electric and gas. The kitchen is very clean and everything works great including sink and stove. All the trim for the pop up top has been replaced which means no cracked rubber seals and no leaks. The pop up camper works like new and the Van still has the original "single window" fabric with no holes or tears. In case you are wondering: The Westfalia sleeps four people: Two on the lower level bed and two on the upper (pop up). The exhaust system is a stainless steel version and is also in great shape. The Vanagon just recently passed CA smog without issues. The engine is strong and the tires have a lot of tread left. This Vanagon comes with all original locks and also still has the original locked gas cap with one VW key opening every lock. The tires were upgraded to the 16" "Go Westy" wheels and the wheels have been custom chromed. All windows with exception to the front windshield have been tinted professionally. No bubbles or nasty wrinkles. If you didn't know they are tinted, you wouldn't notice. The car comes with the original curtains and additional curtains to cover the front windshield and the driver and passenger windows for privacy. We took the car for a 1000 mile road trip recently and everything is fine. The engine in this Vanagon is the second one and it has roughly 100k miles on it. It is an original non rebuilt engine which was taken from a donor Van. This should be good for at least another 150k miles before it needs a rebuild. The transmission shifts nicely but (for full disclosure) it does have a slight hesitation shifting into third. I think this is all that I could say about the car. This wil be a reliable and solid camper for years to come and when it eventually will need some attention, it will be worth it, since these are quite collectible vehicles at this point. One last thing: The '86 year model is the last year where they still used the more beautiful chrome bumpers instead of the plastic ones. These look beautiful and are in very nice shape. Please understand that this is a 27 year old car and while I have described everything I know about this car, I am not offering any kind of warranty or guarantees. The Van is sold as is.

Chrysler slows minivan production, hasn't built VW Routan this year

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Chrysler has slowed production of its Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans this week, Automotive News reports. The Windsor, Ontario plant will cut its three shifts from eight hours each to four hours each in an effort "to align production with market demand," a Chrysler spokesperson told AN. Chrysler also builds the closely related Routan minivan for Volkswagen at its Ontario facility, but has not built a single example thus far in 2013.
Sales of Chrysler's minivans fell 15 percent for the first two months of 2013, and a large part of that has to do with the 26-percent drop of the Grand Caravan alone (the T&C was only down by one percent). According to Automotive News data, as of March 1, Chrysler had an unsold inventory of 24,713 Town and Country models and 18,547 Grand Caravans - a 69- and 43-day supply, respectively.
"No sense running full speed now, then have a lot of vehicles sitting around a few months down the line," Chrysler spokeswoman Jodi Tinson told AN. Full production is expected to resume again on March 18.

Audi's CEO might not have known of VW emissions scheme

Tue, Sep 27 2016

There's been no shortage of finger-pointing when it comes to finding people to blame for the Volkswagen diesel-emissions scandal that broke last September. One rather powerful executive, however, appears to have escaped blame. That would be Audi CEO Rupert Stadler, whose company sold about 85,000 diesel vehicles with emissions-cheating software, Reuters says, citing people familiar with the process. US law firm Jones Day questioned executives at both VW and its Audi unit and has found no evidence that Stadler was complicit with the plan, which involved programming Volkswagen-made diesel engines to produce artificially low emissions when the vehicle was being smog-tested. In Audi's case, the engine type in question was the 3.0-liter V6 diesel. Officials with both VW and its Audi unit declined to comment, according to Reuters. That engine was used for the Audi A6, A7, A8, Q5, and Q7 since the 2009 model year, in addition to the VW Touareg and Porsche Cayenne. Audi also sold the VW Group 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the A3 from 2010 to 2013 and 2015. VW has reached an agreement with US regulators concerning that engine, which is also not connected to Stadler. Last month, German newspaper Bild am Sonntag published specifics on how the 3.0-liter diesel cheated the emissions-testing process, including records that the motor was programmed to shut of its emissions-control equipment after 22 minutes of running, or about two minutes longer than typical emissions-compliance testing. Audi said last November that it would work on a software update for the V6's emissions-control system that would be submitted to both the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), but the VW unit hasn't reached any settlement with US regulators implying that a solution was agreed upon. Volkswagen's settlement with the EPA will cost Europe's largest automaker as much as $15 billion in the form of buybacks, lease buyouts, vehicle repairs, and investments in zero-emissions technology. VW sold about a half-million vehicles in the US that contained the so-called "cheat" software.

Volkswagen bringing new Tiguan to Frankfurt

Sun, Sep 6 2015

As expected, Volkswagen will introduce the new Tiguan crossover at the upcoming Frankfurt Motor Show. While the brand hasn't quite gotten on the endless teaser train, VW's German Facebook page has released a simple shot of the new crossover covered up on the Wolfsburg factory line. We're not able to learn much from the single image released by VW Deutschland, as the sheet being used hides virtually all the body's details. The caption for the image is no help either, simply saying that the first Tiguan for Frankfurt has rolled off the Wolfsburg line. So yeah, that's about it. But while this image isn't terribly informative, we already know quite a bit about the new Tiguan. Its looks will likely be inspired by the Cross Coupe GTE and CrossBlue Concepts, while additional body styles could be offered later in the CUV's life. For performance fans, there will likely be a 300-horsepower R model, in addition to the standard array of gas and diesel engines. Check out the image from VW Germany's Facebook page, and then be sure to head back in a few weeks for the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show.
