Eurovan 6-cyl

  • 143,054 miles
230 days in VW dealer's repair shop ! I purchased a 2002 VW Eurovan weekender camper with 142,276 miles on 2/25/12 because of its excellent space utilization and because it had a replacement engine still under VW warranty. I was very wrong about the VW warranty. I paid $21,780.63 for warranty and/or faulty repairs all performed by VW dealers with VW parts! it cost me $1.02 for each of the 21,360 miles I drove my VW. The faulty repairs involved 3 replacement engines (coolant hose clamps popped off), 2 replacement transmissions, and 2 drive disc replacements (no guide sleeves installed). One engine needed replacement after fewer than 1800 miles! neither VW in germany or America would honor their 12 month/12,000 mile warranty for VW dealers.
