Hi gentleman,

My name is Nolan and from Cape Town,SA. I am trying to find info on a 2.3 liter VW Microbus i am busy cleaning up. Tried all sorts of websites but no luck. Stumbled onto your site and wow, you guys are really clued up. Where can I find info like fusebox layout, driving lights( inner small round ones) operation or non operation in my case and any other info at all. Tried to find a user manual but very scarce.

If you can help me please let me know. Once again congrats on your great site.

I have 2.5 and 2.6 wiring diagrams for the SA buses. What year is your bus? PM me with an email address and I will send which ever suits you best (2.5 before 1994, 2.6 after)
