2003 Chevrolet Venture Ls Mini Passenger Van 4-door 3.4l Extended Work Van on 2040-cars
Summerville, South Carolina, United States
|
Up for auction is my 2003 Chevy Venture long wheel base van with 112,674 miles. I've owned this van for the last 7 years. It was originally an 8 passenger vehicle used as our family van for transporting my children. Two years ago, I converted it to a 5 passenger work van for my business. I removed the third row seating and installed some shelving for tools and an inexpensive, bolt-on ladder rack. This has been a reliable vehicle for us. The two biggest issues are the large amounts of rust on both rocker panels and a leak in the AC line that runs to the rear AC unit. Last year, the AC was not running cold. I filled the system with refrigerant and it worked great. However, the next day, it was not cold again. I took the van to an AC shop. They verified that the compressor and front lines were fine. However, the refrigerant was leaking from a line to the rear unit. This left two options for repair. The first was to replace the rear AC lines. This was rather expensive. The second was to install a block off kit to the rear lines. This would eliminate the rear AC from working, but allow the front unit to operate correctly. These can be found on eBay for about $75.00 Here is the eBay item number to an example. 171062958346 Other than these two items, the van functions well. I was originally going to correct the issue with a block off kit this spring. However, I decided to purchase a full size van for my business instead. I have all the seats that were removed and they will come with the vehicle. All four tires have lots of life on them and an additional complete set of four more good tires is included as well. Please look at the photos and ask any questions that you may have. Vehicle is sold as is and has no warranty of any type. Year: 2003 Mileage: 112,674 Local pick up in Summerville, SC 29483 only. I will accept cash or a certified bank check only for this purchase. |

Weekly Recap: BMW rolls out ambitious plug-in hybrid electric plan
Sat, Dec 6 2014"We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important." – Julian Arguelles Let there be no doubt, BMW is serious about electric vehicles. The German automaker said this week it will make plug-in hybrid versions of all of its core models, an aggressive move that demonstrates its commitment to electric propulsion systems. BMW did not specify which vehicles will get the plug-in systems or provide a timeline for when they will arrive. But the announcement is clearly more than blustering, and the company revealed a 3 Series plug-in prototype this week at an event in France. BMW said the 3 Series uses a version of its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine (240 horsepower, 300 pound feet of torque) with an electric motor sandwiched between the engine and transmission in place of the torque converter. It has an all-electric range of 22 miles. A plug-in X5 with the same powertrain was also displayed alongside the 3 Series, though the X5 has been on the auto-show circuit for more than a year, including a recent stop in Los Angeles. Those two vehicles use "eDrive," and BMW's plans represent the first widespread transfer of its technology from development of the i3 and i8 models to more mainstream products. BMW said it's developing electric powertrains so they can be deployed rapidly across its range, and they are flexible enough to be used with fuel cells in future products. Enticingly, BMW is also working on a "Power eDrive" system, which debuted in a 5 Series GT concept at the event in France. This setup has two electric motors powered by a 20-kilowatt-hour battery pack, and when teamed with a four-cylinder turbo, pump out about 670 hp. Reinforcing BMW's commitment, the company will add more than 200 jobs at its factory in Dingolfing, Germany, to support electric-vehicle development. The moves come as BMW and other automakers diversify their portfolios while fuel economy and emissions regulations are getting tighter around the world. The United States has set a 54.5-mpg CAFE requirement for the 2025 model year. BMW said the electric vehicles were developed with an eye toward the US market, its government policies and its wide-ranging commuting styles. "We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important," spokesman Julian Arguelles said. Ben Scott, a senior analyst in London with automotive research firm IHS, said BMW's moves are expensive – but necessary – to keep pace with the market.

GM execs fired over fraudulent India emissions testing
Mon, 29 Jul 2013General Motors hadn't had a recall in India since 1995. That changed when it was discovered that certain employees were playing tricks with local emissions testing in order to ensure passing grades for engines. More than ten GM Powertrain employees in India and the US have been let go over the ensuing emissions flap, including Sam Winegarden, VP of global engine engineering, a man who has been with the company since 1969, leading development of some marquee powerplants.
According to Automotive News, an internal investigation revealed that employees "violated testing procedures," sometimes swapping specially prepared low-emissions engines during testing regimes for the Chevrolet Tavera SUV equipped with the 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter engines. Employees were also manipulating weights in order to get vehicles placed into different emissions categories. The discovery has led to GM recall the 114,000 Taveras produced over an eight-year period and halting their production and sale.
The Economic Times of India reports that the issue is due to "a faulty component." GM has developed a solution to the issue, and once it is validated in testing and approved by the Indian authorities, the recalled vehicles will be fixed at dealers and production will resume.
