A vinyl wrapped door card and dash would be sweet. The door cards I have seen done online, but not the dash.

Shiny things you no longer want / Re: Parting Out: 2003 Eurovan MV

One item from this vintage of van that I think is worth getting out is the steering wheel position sensor/clockspring. These things are pricey as hell and from what I found in my experience is the can/will fail.
If you have it (and it works) - please let me know.

i prefer mine naked and leave it off -- seeing the pillars is much more bus like in my opinion.

General Discussion / Re: change or not- trans fluid in high milage 2002
« on: February 03, 2017, 01:41:03 pm »
I don't know about thinning it out -- were you thinking of using another spec of tran oil?
If it were mine, I would do it and the ATF filter -- to "zero" the age of all the fluids you can - oil, coolant, ATF. Start a new maintenance log from that and track your changes.
When the fluid is drained from the transmission - you might as well inspect the gasket/ring seal on the multi-function/range switch connector -- mine suffered a slow leak from this.

Cool stuff here!
3 cheers for GLS campers!
I have a GLS 'camper' as well -- using the MV bench bed and its been great. I tore out the carpet and put down a rubber/plywood floor and longer seat mounting bolts so it can be a 7 seater still.
I hung an ARB awning off my roof rack system too - works good. I had a pair of "ARB" brackets -- total beef overkill for the awning. Thetford porta potty (for the kids), a cooler and camping stove -- all packed raw (no cabinet enclosure) -- but all tied down well with lots of room. Swivel seat on the passenger side -- pocket storage thingy on the drivers side. I miss having the weekender table - but that is an easy thing to substitute with a fold out table (or tv dinner tray).
And when we're done camping -- I put the middle seats in and she's back to a 7 seat hauler! Super utility!

Inscribed with just two thumbs...
I'm pretty certain our friends across the pond do this -- google VW T4 blue clock conversion. It's all in the semantics - calling them "blue clocks".

« on: August 19, 2016, 01:09:32 pm »Thanks, Itsamoto. In case you are replacing the old water pump in Lucille, which brand you will be using as a replacement? It looks like VAG don't stock new EuroVan water pumps in the US anymore (original P/N 021121004A), all they have are re-manufactured ones (P/N 021121004X) according to local VW dealer. Not sure if it's the same in Canada, thou. I feel abit hesitant of using a re-manufactured part, but quality of aftermarket (Hepa, Febi, Meyle, Graft, etc) makes me worry.

This GEBA one might fit the bill: http://www.urotuning.com/Water-Pump-24v-VR6-p/022121011.htm
A rebuilt one can't be all that bad though -- which means there must be a non-destructive method to replacing the bearing. Something worth figuring out. I'm in the metal impeller camp though -- having seen how easily the plastic impeller fins break.
