T25 VW manual "travelling under harsh circumstances"

Post by Dutchdude »

Browsing the internet I found this original vw manual called "Reisen unter erschwerten Bedingungen" which translates to "travelling under harsh circumstances". It is in german but it shows how to do underside protection, cyclone filters etc etc to several vw models, including T25 and LT. Very interesting read and lots of great pictures:

Mind you, this is a 1984 manual, so pre-syncro era..but nontheless.

Merry Christmas to all,

Surely there were Syncro's from 1980 so it's slap bang in the middle of the era. :ok

As far as I'm aware syncros were brought in mid 80s?

:D yeeey I'm right! (for once)..
I don't know if anyone has noticed but if you open the link, on the left side of the screen are ALL the T25 technical repair manuals for free. Yes all of them, engine, gearbox, electrics, the works! (all the syncro ones too). All in german but they are pretty self explanatory I guess. So now everyone can RTFM..
