Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • wrecking t5 transporter with hce rebuilt transmission

    Hi All long story but it looks like i might have to wreck a t5 transporter 04 with 2.5L axe engine. Can anyone advise what's involved in dumping out the engine and transmission, and can i do this on my mostly flat driveway? Anyone interested in parts let me know but i have to sell atleast a major component or two to make wrecking the van worthwhile.

    Based near Liverpool nsw in case anyone wants to help me do it!

    Cheers, Sam

      Sure you don't want a backup auto transmission for safe keeping?? They are known to give out on the early transporters aren't they??

          So I've made some good progress pulling this van apart, the dead engine is sold and the rolling shell from B pillar back is sold. Question today, what's worth trying to pull off vs. don't bother?

          Should I bother trying to get the instrument cluster or noone will ever buy this off me they never break? Dash? Any pollution gear or other pipework? Anything else you can think of that's worth trying to get off and list? Electrical bits? I will be pulling off the front doors at least, front bumper and bonnet etc already off. Guess I should get front quarter panels also in case someone has dinged theirs. Any suggestions on setting prices also appreciated. Not after heaps but do want to make some money back, selling things for $20 almost not worth the effort unless part of a package deal.
