1.9td

Hello, wondering if anyone can help, I was driving along and heard a pop. Engine now won’t turn over and I was towed away. Can’t see oil just water and coolant. Pouring out. No hoses are dislodged, all I have is a video which I will try and attach.

Hi, I was looking for some info on engine conversions. I had the unfortunate situation of my fan belt slipping off on the m6 and caused internal damage meaning I now need a new cylinder head. anyway, I was looking at the possibility of a new engine, something more powerful. currently I have...

Thought I'd change my bulky looking sliding windows, and managed to pick up some second-hand Caravelle fixed windows....... To get them ready for fitting, I had to clean off the old adhesive with a scalpel.................. Once I'd done that it was time to feed on the external...

Does anyone know if a clutch can be retro-fitted to an ABL Alternator, or if not, is there any other spec. of clutched Alternator that can be fitted to an ABL 1.9TD?

Hi guys, This little nipple thing is broken on my van and I think air is escaping, causing a slightly annoying hissing sound on acceleration (it seems to lessen when I push the nipple back on). Does anyone know what it's called, or even better, have a link to where I can buy a replacement? Or...

I'm looking to replace my springs with either Vogtland 40's with thin poly shims, or Vogtland 60's; I can't decide between the two, but I do like the low look. My current springs are Jamex and they keep bottoming out when I carry any weight (eg. 18 paving slabs); most of the time the van's empty...

Hi guys, I'm after a little advice. My 2001 1.9 TD ABL makes a clicking noise as I engage the accelerator and begin to ease off the clutch. I generally hear it at low speed or when stationary so it's when I'm in 1st or 2nd gear. It may well happen in higher gears but I don't hear it over...

Hi, I have a VW T4 1.9TD 1999 model, and the head gasket went on it a couple of months ago. So I figure the engine needs replacing, but I don't have ANY hands on experience with engines, so would need someone else to do it. Does anyone have any recommendations for places that do engine swaps...

Hi there, My 1.9td T4 has been running rough for a while now so I decided to have the timing belt changed. All went well until the problem started coming back, So I removed the injectors and sent them away for testing and the guy at the testing place told me they were full of water and he hadnt...

SORRY EVERYONE - SOME OF THE PICTURES IN THIS THREAD ARE MISSING, I'M VERY ANNOYED THAT I DIDN'T BACK UP AND TRUSTED AN ONLINE SERVICE. I have tried to reinstate where possible. ************************************************************* I thought I'd start a thread on the progress of...

Alright Boys and Girls First post for me. Been a proud owner of a T4 Panel Van which i'm converting. Recently done cam belt and water pump change and been in the garage today to see a possible fuel or oil leak. They have phoned up to say it needs a whole fuel pump replacement and have quoted...

Hello guys, Looking for some advice on what to do with my van. My 1.9td 1996 800 Special T4 broke down in late February of this year - had it towed to a local garage who identified a broken bottom timing pulley cog as the issue. Had this part replaced and also a new timing belt kit at the same...

Recently resprayed. Subtle baby/sky blue T4, 1.9td 800 Special (camper converted). Call her 'The Slug'!! :ILU:

Hi all So i've decided to make a build thread on my 1996 White 1.9td T4. I have no idea why as i'm well known to myself for being rubbish at taking photo's:confused: I brought the van 1 1/2 years with a home made conversion in the back, a rubbish side window job and a sunroof. The bumpers and...

Hi I have been a member of the forum for a while but first time I have really posted so apologises in advance if I don't get the etiquette 100% correct. I have a 1997 1.9td panel van with around 170k on the clock . At the beginning of the summer the bolt holding the timing belt pulley sheared...
