This van is currently not in a operational state. It is being stored at my mechanics shop in Mission Viejo, California. When we found the cost of repairs to be great, we chose to look for a new vehicle. The top end of the engine is partially disassembled, camshaft is out. My mechanic found that sludge build up is fairly great. With what work he recommended the cost just pushed us towards looking for something newer. 


I you are a good mechanic, and know Volkswagon products, this would be an awesome project car. My mechanic suggests replacing the timing sensors, however he said there is a chance they are still good once the engine is thoroughly cleaned out. If it were me, and I had the time, I would remove the engine, disassemble, thoroughly clean and replace any warn parts, and you should be good to go. 

The engine was running well, but slowly started to decline, which was the timing sensors not being able to read correctly due to the sludge build up.

This engine did have it's timing chain replaced a couple years back, a known Eurovan Issue. 

The alternator was replaced VERY recently, probably less than 500 miles on it.

I'm told there is a minor water leak at the thermostat housing (I think that's the location) but is an easy fix when rebuilding.

No other known engine issues.

Original transmission.

The body is in OK condition, maybe a 6 on a 10 scale. It has never been in an accident, never severally damaged, however there is a lot of wear and tear. Many scratches in and around the sliding door area due to servicing my daughter's wheelchair ramp.

VW readying two-row CUV concept for Detroit

Wed, Dec 10 2014

We're likely getting yet another glimpse of Volkswagen's future crossover at the upcoming 2015 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, in January. According to Automotive News, two anonymous sources within the automaker indicate a CUV concept will be shown there. The concept is said to be a five-passenger preview of the brand's future seven-seat model. Previous versions of the crossover have carried the name CrossBlue (pictured above), but there was no indication whether or not that would continue. The original three-row concept debuted at the 2013 auto show in Detroit, and VW followed it up with the CrossBlue Coupe Concept in Shanghai later that year. In early 2014, the company announced the CUV would go into production sometime in 2016, along with plans to invest $7 billion in North America over the next five years. During the summer, the automaker made things even more official when it declared plans to invest $900 million to build a 538,000-square-foot expansion into its Chattanooga, TN, factory to assemble the new model. Production of the crossover was slated to begin by the end of 2016, at the time. According to Automotive News, even more changes in VW's CUV lineup are on the way. The Tiguan is reportedly getting an update next year that could be joined by coupe and long-wheelbase variants, as well.
