Vw 1985 Westfalia Vanagon Camper on 2040-cars
Florence, South Carolina, United States
|
Up for auction is my 1985 VW Westfalia full camper. This is a re-listing.
This van is a clean running, good looking vehicle. It is almost a rust free vehicle. The undercarriage shows no rust damage and the exterior is exceptional for its age. As far as I know, it is the original paint job. The interior is clean and has all the original parts. Just look at the pictures. I had 2 different garages look at the vehicle and they were both impressed with the van. This van has a rebuilt 2L GoWesty engine with less than 6000 miles on it($6000) and recently tuned. It has a recently installed Bilstein shocks in the rear. There were a number of people that asked to see the van in person when I initially listed it but the van was at the garage so I stopped the auction to give those who wanted to see it a chance to look at it. I wanted the person who wins the auction to be happy so I decided to do addition work on it. This is what was done to the van in the last few weeks: -Cooling system diagnosed- thermo switch replaced for cooling fan, complete cooling system flushed, pressure tested for leaks, inspected belts, hoses and test radiator cap. -Checked starter circuit, replaced starter assembly -Brand new NAPA battery installed -Pop top roof was removed and cleaned -New GoWesty design tent was installed -Set of new Yokohama tires installed (P215/65R15) to existing If you want a better Vanagon, go check out the ones in GoWesty.com. You'll suffer from "sticker shock." My van is not the same as GoWesty's but it's in pretty good condition and it's one of the best I've seen in the east coast. I bought extra parts that will be included in the auction: oil filters, curtain hooks, fuses, stickers, repair manual, and some other misc. items. I put full rubber floor mats to protect the floor. This van is sold "as is' and no warranty. This vehicle is 29 years old and I took care of it the last 3 years(replaced broken or missing pieces). It is not perfect and you should not expect it to be. Personal inspection of the vehicle is encouraged. Bring your mechanic! Serious bidders only! Good luck bidding. On Jun-03-14 at 15:07:03 PDT, seller added the following information: Please do not email about reserve price. Keep bidding and you'll know when it meets the reserve price. One of the picture has the wrong tire size. It's correct in the main description. P215/65/R15. |

VW adding particulate filters to gas engines
Wed, Aug 3 2016Volkswagen is working hard to overcome the PR disaster that is its diesel emissions scandal, and part of its efforts is focusing, weirdly, on petrol engines. Starting in June 2017, the embattled German automaker will add particulate filters to the gas-powered Volkswagen Tiguan and Audi A5. The change will eventually impact nearly every direct-injected gas engine the VW Group makes. Audi? Particulate filter. Seat? Particulate filter. Even Bentley is going to get the tech, all in a bid to reduce soot emissions by 90 percent. In fact, by 2022 VAG expects 7 million of its vehicles to boast the emissions-cleaning tech, which has long been a fixture on diesel engines. "Following increases in efficiency and lower CO2 output, we are now bringing about a sustained reduction in the emission levels of our modern petrol engines by fitting particulate filters as standard," Volkswagen Group research and design boss Dr. Ulrich Eichhorn said in a statement. "In the future, all models will be equipped with the latest and most efficient SCR catalytic converter technology." VW's initial rollout focuses on the 1.4-liter, turbocharged Tiguan and the 2.0-liter, turbocharged A5. Considering the popularity of the 2.0-liter across the VW range, we'd expect it's only a matter of time before VW expands its particulate filters tech to additional gas-powered vehicles.

NA auto output to reach 11-year peak
Thu, 13 Jun 2013According to Automotive News, automakers are expected to manufacture 16 million light vehicles in North America in 2013. That's up 500,000 units from last year and marks the largest number since 2002. The prediction comes courtesy of LMC Automotive and IHS Automotive, which point to the improving US economy as a bellwether for total production. LMC Automotive says North America will produce 16 million vehicles while IHS has a slightly more optimistic forecast of 16.1 million units. A total of seven automakers are slated to increase production on the continent this year. Nissan is set to see the largest jump at 20 percent over last year.
Volkswagen, meanwhile, is one of the only manufacturers predicted to scale back production. Analysts expect the German company's output to fall by 23 percent to 170,000 units, thanks in part to slow demand for the Volkswagen Passat and Jetta.
