The '93 EV MV just turned 100K and we took it in for a little service this past week. I had the transmission fluid and filter changed and the mount replaced. I don't drive this very much, as my

Re: Fuel Line inspection -Not a DIY'r fix
My 82 Westy came with a fire extinguisher. I guess is VW knew something then. Always a good idea - think about it, gas, rubber/plastic fuel lines, heat, sparks...etc hummmmmm. Grins, Chester

Fuel Line inspection -Not a DIY'r fix
I have a 93 and also have looked at these lines and will continue to do so. I have carried a fire extinguisher since I owned it and am thinking of getting the kind that goes under the hood and is

Re: Fuel Line inspection -Not a DIY'r fix
Yes, I agree this is not a DIY repair. I have decided to switch cars with my wife until this is resolved. I can no longer feel safe with my family in this vehicle. I will use it for my short

Re: Fuel Line inspection
Yes, I suppose a bump could jar this connection too. I am concerned enough that I am making a daily inspection. My concern is what is is the right clamp to use. A spring type clamp appear to be a

Re: EV MV Search
John Let us know more about the 99 MVWK if you don't drive it off the lot yourself. The VR6 is great. Guess I am just dreaming. Maybe you can get the dealer to install some of those deer whistles on

Re: Fuel Line inspection
Ron, Don't know what VW will do, but if I were you I'd replace the fuel lines now....The $$$ are few compared to the aggravation of a fire... Moe Walters snip snip

Yegs, Sure thing, If I don't get that '99 EV MV Weekender myself, I'll let you all know what I discover. As far as the airbag goes, I didn't need it in my situation, the shoulder strap was

Re: Fuel Line inspection
You might be OK if you never touch or jiggle the lines. But fate may not be so kind. A large bump in the road might be enough. Mine seemed to leak right after I had to replace a coolant hose in the

Re: '99 MV wanted + advice?
Rumors of the demise of the EV are greatly exaggerated, as the 2000 models are already on these shores. I doubt that they'd abandon the EV, but they certainly don't push it. Salespeople tend to have

I just returned from a day of touring minivan dealerships, and we've decided we want a Eurovan MV. Trouble is, they appear to be in danger of being an orphan product here in the homogenous USoA. My
