    Interesting, my 07 Transporter had chrome T and red DI, MY 08 Multivan had all red TDI
    My Transporter had only a single headlight, is that the case for all Transporters, the Caravelle and Multivan all had twin headlights
    Only the noise changes when you floor a 96kw whereas a 128 will also make more noise but actually go faster !

    Ask the owner to look on his rego papers. The AXD or AXE should be a prefix on the engine no.
    Understand how it works, troubleshoot logically BEFORE replacing parts.

    Originally there is also a sticker on the rocker cover which will include the engine prefix, an ID sticker on the dash cover under the
    driver's side, and a sticker in the owners manual in the glovebox.
