Error Code PO172 and EPC and CEL
Hi Folks, I have a 02' EVC with 57,000 on it. I'm the original owner. Recently had the EPC light come on and off. Intermittment. No error codes reported when it illuminated. Periodically happens when

Re: 3rd row seat/bed assembly.
The MV vs. CL/GL/GLS though had a different purpose and that sometimes is justification enough. If we always took the "different styles are not cost effective" approach, every car model would have one

Re: 3rd row seat/bed assembly.
Steve, ? It sounds like some more fine German engineering.? Why would VW do that?? It is not cost effective to have two different styles of seats.? ? I had a line on the 1993 Volkswagen Eurovan

Re: Curtain question
with a set from a 99. I can't say for sure about 99 to 01 but I can tell you that curtains from a '93 fit my '00 just fine, so I'm inclined to believe that VW kept the curtain snap location the same

Re: tow package contents?
This is correct. There was no "tow package" for the Eurovan. It's merely owners that are taking creative liberties and literary license with their description of the tow hitch they fitted.

Curtain question
Does anyone know if the curtains varied from year to year in terms of snaps, quality, etc. I have been looking for a front curtain for my 01 and have found some one with a set from a 99. Any help

Re: Error Code PO172 and EPC and CEL
This is an indication of the coolant temperature sensor failure. It is common with the 2002 EVC. There is a green top sensor available from VW dealer and many vendors for less than $20 that replaces

Transmission Shift Point Shifted...
Dear List, There seems to a transmission problem developing in our 1999 EVC. First a bit of service history: We currently drive about 9000 miles/year in the EVC, total miles: 91000. It is off the road

Re: tow package contents?
Not positive, but I am guessing it is just the hitch and wiring. The only options available for my model year were heated seats and a sunroof. The brochure did not list a tow package.

Re: Norcold replacement for EVC?
Our '97 EVC Norcold works perfectly when sitting in the driveway and being used on AC and pretty much always on propane either when sitting in our driveway (after I carefully level the vehicle) or at

Re: Transmission Shift Point Shifted...
Serviced two years ago? What was involved in that service? It is possible that the fluid is low and is causing the problem. Two things I would do without hesitation: Transmission reset procedure is in

Re: Low Oil Pressure
Probably not, unfortunately, I have to work. I have a small shop I spend most of my time at (mostly working on my own stuff but we do flip a car once in a while to make some extra money), then I

Re: tow package contents?
I concur with hitch and wiring, "Tow Package" is just hype. However, I would be cautious about a Eurovan that had been used to tow stuff; it 'seems', repeat 'seems', that such a vehicle is at higher

tow package contents?
I occasionally see VR6 EVs for sale, listing "tow package" among the features and options. Was this a factory option package? What was included? How can I distinguish a tow-package vehicle from one

Sounds like you did a nice job David! Most folks on the list probably have no idea what we are talking about! Stuart Seattle P.S.: Are you going to the Greenwood Car Show Saturday? It will be a great

Re: How often do you service your A/C ? (93 EV) - anbody do their own?
I use dye (and a black light helps, too). But, most leaks are at the compressor shaft. The other suspects (fittings to coils and valves) typically use reliable o-rings and usually don't leak. Devices

Garrett & Kris - I have a 12V DC - 115V AC Cooler-Freezer chest unit that is very efficient - 3.5A DC & 0.4A AC, with a fully adjustable thermostat [AC & DC], so it doesn't run constantly. My 2 solid

Re: How often do you service your A/C ? (93 EV) - anbody do their own?
Thanks,Dave. That takes the mystery ouy of it and sounds like good practical advice. After all, hooking meters up is a good way to lose oil or R134A. Now how do you locate leakes? I have an old VW

Re: Replacing screens on slider windows
Thanks everyone. Some good ideas to try. I live in an area that is somewhat lacking in services - and those that are offered are often not worth the price, so DIY is sometimes the best option. Karen

Re: How often do you service your A/C ? (93 EV) - anbody do their own?
A system is either overcharged or undercharged and, if your compressor is working correctly, and your expansion valves aren't plugged, you don't really need gauges. (Also, your fans/blowers have to be
