Just read this in the WIKI pages: Audi 5 Cylinder Available in 2.0, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.6 flavours, running various different injection systems and turbos. Not a conversion for the novice. This requires substantial bodywork adjustment, bracketry fabrication and needs specialist parts. Can be mounted usin...

A Porsche G50 box looks like the best option from what I can gather.

yup, done enough on the 901 box out of a 914 so can't see the problem??

unless others can?

Has anyone done this? I remember seeing pics some time back from someone in Europe that had put a 5 cyl Audi lump in the back of a T3. Does anyone know the ins and outs of such a conversion? Idea is a 2226cc Turbo motor, for "Projekt RS-T25" Ideally mated to an Audi 6 speed box, rather tha...

It is an MV engine. Have come across a few problems whilst hunting for this problem but nothing has cured it. Like a supposed set of new leads which had bits of a broken dissy cap in the end of one of them. Work carried out by a so called reputable specialist as well.

Done everything possible and still runs like a bag of spanners!

It's probably something simple and obvious but whatever it is, it's confused me something chronic!

OK, update: It seems there is an intermittent fault going to the injector on no.2 cylinder. When removing any other injector, there is a major difference, but on removing no.2, there is little difference to the running (i.e intermittent missing). Have swapped over injector and problem persists on no...

It's a 1987 model.
The engine was rebuilt by Laurie Petit some 40,000 miles ago.
It's only recently started to happen. Looks like I've got a bit to be going on with today at least!
Cheers for the help and advice. I will let you know the result!

Thanks for that. I did get the AFM checked by a local garage last week. (Also got them to do a head gasket leak test as trying to elliminate everything!) TBH, it's been no better since it came back and they were uncertain about the state of the AFM. It's more noticable from start but it does do it s...

I've got a Multivan with a 2.1 water cooled motor (3 spd Auto box) and it's recently started to run very erratic. Mainly when I slow down at a junction for example. Pick up can be slow and sluggish (not all the time though). Also, at speed (say 50-70mph) you can sometimes feel the engine surge forwa...

I've got the XL one too - excellent is all I can say. Makes a great card game and ale swigging den. Only problem we had was that the cats in France liked it too - always found at least one cat in there in the morning or when we came back from a day trip :lol: can be erected single handed, but as :P...

Just in the process of purchasing a T3 Multivan, and and looking at a decent drive away awning for it.

Have seen the 2 on offer that Just Kampers sell.
Are there any other alternatives at all?
