 Motorhome fettled - Boxsterboy
This talk of VW campers brings me out in a cold sweat. DON'T whatever you do buy a T5.1 version of these with the 180 BiTDI engine. The engines WILL wear out at about 60,000 miles as parts related to the aluminium EGR valve corrodes and bits of it get ingested into the engine. I had ours from new and changed the oil/filter annually, didn't thrash it, etc. but even this didn't help. The only solution is a new engine. "They all do that, sir".
