[mark christopher]

Thinking of swapping my Vito for a vw touran, looking for any feed back, around 2009 model 2litre pd 140bhp bkd engine.
I Know about dual mass flywheel.

What do you know

Some of the BKD engines had injectors issues but VW did a recall.

On mine there's a vibration when accelerating past around 25-30 mph. Its only very faint and a mechy friend of mine said he can't feel it and I'm dreaming, in fact I'm the only one who notices it. Its just passed its test and I asked them to check all bushes thinking they'd find something but all came back fine.

Maybe I am dreaming but just something to check when testing any. Apart from that is a great vehicle, loads of space and comfort.

dont get one with dpf if your not doing much motorway mileage as the light comes on for fun and can put the car in limp mode we had a brand new blue motion one I hated it found the seats very uncomfortable and the build quility poor compared to other vdubs I have owned

This site usually has some details that are worth looking at...

What gear are you in when this happens, if in a high gear it probably clutch flywheel chatter

Hi,

Its only going to be 2nd or 3rd. Its an auto box, the DSG, its only low speed just like a wheel out of balance. Nobody else notices it but I'm sure I can feel it.

Maybe as the saying goes, I shouldn't look to hard for problems!
