Which T4?

[Tombi]

I've had my '97 T4 bus for 9 troublefree years. It is a manual 2.5 and I wouldn't say it is cheap to run ,but it has been sooo reliable. Been over to the West and back, Far north coast a number of times, Flinders Ranges last Easter. Great cruising bus. Have driven the 2.0 Lts and they do go well I have to admit, but long drives? Hmm those high revs would get a bit monotonous.

I have thought about replacing my T4 for some time but couldn't jsutify the cost of a new T5, particulary since I have had such a great run with my bus.
However since the Federal Govt' is giving small businesses investment incentives I have now purchased a newT5. I am picking it up tommorrow,so that means I will be putting my beloved and trustworthy T4 on the market soon. We've been so many places together it will be a sad day for us when she goes to another home.

I also believe in the 2.5 petrol 1997 onwards

Issues specific for 2l ---> Map sensor dying , only fix is ecu replacement as Bosch stopped selling these sensors long ago .
Cracked manifolds- I was gonna try fitting a golf 4 2l one to see if it works but never got around to it and the customer bought a T5 instead . I dont know how successful it is to weld it since it starts cracking it follows a path all across the manifold . Best to get extractors made up !

TDI is good but expensive to maintain
