This is a loving vanagon I purchased in march of 2008. Wolfsburg edition. She is a 6 passanger van, all independent and original seats, the two in the middle swivel and can be lock in four positions and the rear ones recline. She did not run when I purchased but the vw mechanic found that the problem was the starter motor, and mention that body underneat is in good condition, so no surprises with rust . I purchased a new battery. and I enjoyed this van the summer of 2008. He recommended to do new head gasquet, and I did it in order to make a trip from Minnesota to Georgia in 2009. I made it without problems. Engine sounds smooth This van has been my summer van for the weekends just to go to some lakes around Minnesota. I've been careful not to drive it during winter, but I had just to pick up some furnitures and not to drive it daily thinking that has to be my summer weekend car. A few months ago somebody broke the rear bumper in the parking lot and the heat motor blower stoped working, also the tachometer just two months ago. Also the furniture that goes attached to the sealing for the air conditioner collapsed. I never care to inject gas for the air conditioner so don't know if that is what needs. I want to mention that the gas tank reader has not worked since the time of purchase, so I had been careful to fill the tank before reaches 200 miles of driving. Last repair a few months ago was new breaks in all four tires and new rear break drums.This van would be perfect for somebody that is more adventurous than me and that will take a good care of her. Tires are 10% used. A tune up service will be done this week becouse is taking more seconds to start her.

VW promises 7-seat CUV for America in 2016
Mon, 13 Jan 2014On the eve of the Detroit Auto Show, Volkswagen chief executive Martin Winterkorn has confirmed the imminent arrival of a new crossover. The model, previewed at the same show last year by the CrossBlue concept pictured here, will be unique to the North American market when it arrives here in 2016. The new three-row, seven-seat crossover is part of an ambitious expansion plan on the part of Volkswagen and Audi in North America, where the two brands aim to sell a million vehicles by 2018.
That's a mighty big increase over the 600,000 vehicles which the Volkswagen Group sold here last year, but it's moving in the right direction: That number is already a 100-percent increase of what it sold here just five years ago. At that rate, VW should have little trouble meeting its goals, particularly with the arrival of the new crossover and the introduction of Golf production at its assembly plant in Puebla, Mexico. Read the full statement below for more.
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.

2022 Genesis GV70, raging at VW ID.4 tech and thoughts on a new Lexus LFA | Autoblog Podcast #696
Fri, Sep 17 2021In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor James Riswick. This week, they talk about driving the Genesis GV70, VW ID.4 and VW Taos. They talk about ways Chevy could "fix" the Camaro. James ranked all the James Bond films based solely on their starring cars. Next, they reach in the mailbag and discuss the question, "Do you think Lexus will make a successor to the LFA and, if so, what do you guys think it would be like?" After ruminating on that query, they dip into the mailbag a second time to recommend a sporty crossover to a listener in this week's Spend My Money segment.
