Bought a Multivan

[UpperCaseH]

Back in the '90s, I learned to drive in my mum's bay window kombi. It was an awful, rusty, drafty, old thing that usually smelled like it was on fire even when it wasn't. I loved it so much, and I'm still a bit sad that she sold it when she stopped driving. Since then I've driven a selection of 80s and 90s holdens which were various levels of crap, then most recently a 2002 outback, which was ok but didn't really fit wife + kid + dog + stroller + bags + etc + etc + etc all that well and also wasn't long enough for me to sleep in the back the few times a year I get away on my own. I thought screw it, I'm getting a van.

Having decided to get a van there was really only one option. But the wife said no to a mid 70s kombi so we ended up with the multivan. So 20 years after I last drove a vw van, I'm back in one and it's pretty great, if a bit more modern than I would have liked. It's a '13 TDI340 Comfortline and it's got about a million times more buttons and controls than I'm used to. Drives real nice though.

First and stupidest question I'm gonna ask: The handbook says there should be an MFD option for "freewheel", and I can't see it. It's probably just me being an idiot, but is there anything special I have to do to see that option? Or is it not an actual thing on this model?

Also, the transmission in this thing is the "DQ500", right?

Welcome to the forum UpperCaseH. I know that your first post has to be in the Newbie's section and since you have now done that you would be better off posting your questions again here where it will be seen by those that can assist.

Not sure why the link isn't working ... it should take you to the 'Transporter, Multivan, Caravelle, Kombi' section of the forum?
