No mention of how to actually service it

thanks a lot for uploading this.

Help my power button is fd up on my jam box. Probably oxidized

Syncro Passat B2 with 2.2L inline 5 cyl. and Syncro T3 with 2.1L EFi boxer 4 cyl. are dream cars.

Late to the party, but you only need to connect the two front left ports to trigger Bluetooth. These ports ground the right channel while the back two ports ground the left channel. Not sure if there’s a reason to ground both channels if one fixes the problem?

I love how we're all here taking this seriously because we want our fridge to work, but this is the iconic type of '80s VHS instructional video that comedians make fun of unceasingly in the 21st century. I love it. Can't get enough of it. Check out the Pop Copy sketch from Chappelle Show. It is an amazing example.

I just did this and it worked out sooo well thank you soo much!!!

i wanna syncro

The Quantum system makes sense, but the Syncro viscous coupling is illogical and not a true engineering solution to making a sensible 4wd vehicle. Think about it. When you're cruising in a straight line you're not using 4wd because all the wheels are turning at the same rotation, but if you start turning circles and the front and rear wheels start to revolve at different speeds, that's when front and rear lock up, exactly when you don't want it to. That is totally stupid. After spending over $NZ5k on a VW Austausch gearbox to replace my Syncro one which was completely shagged I fitted a decoupler so it could never happen again. Selectable engagement makes sense, free wheeling hubs for a Syncro would be good too if such a thing existed. My bitter experience is that viscous couplings are seriously flawed, they're a low-tech cheap way to go that the bean counters at VW probably promoted because it was less expensive and complex than fitting a Torsen centre differential. The Syncro is a great vehicle but the viscous coupling is its Achilles heel and that system gets a thumbs down from me.

This video is straight marketing propaganda Haha. The AMC Eagle they showed having "truck like" 4x4 is completely false. All Eagles used a viscous coupling center transfercase that allowed full -time operation on dry pavement all the time, exactly like a Syncro system, but was actually setup even better and MUCH stronger. It looked like a jeep system, but that's because they used the same housings to save cost. The switch on the dash simply disconnected the front axle for better fuel economy, just like some modern AWD systems do.

Thanks a Million! I love this OEM Vanagon video! I want to watch the one for the stove and the rear windshield wiper and the Drive 1 and 2 fears that I never use! The worst part was when he said you were supposed to use a flue vent cover every time you washed the van. I had no idea of course until I saw this, I feel enlightened and wish I saw this years ago! I am fascinated by this video! Over the years I have asked different mechanics how the fridge and stove work, they aren't sure they said, and the family we bought her from said they never used them except for a liquor cabinet, so I have never used them. But now I don't know if I really want to so maybe I will remove the fridge now that I learned how! EVerything he did I was like: WHAT? That's what that is? That's how you do it? That's amazing! That's easy to do! Sincerely, KR

Is that Nick Offerman narrating?

I’m English....... And hands down Germans are the best engineers in the world! I adore VAG cars and the brilliance that they come up with year after year. The only downside to Germany is Angela Merkel!🖕🏼 🇪🇺

Thank you VERY much!!!!!!

Thx alot for this pointer. The back plate of the 3.5mm jack just needs to be referenced to ground for bluetooth connection to work. For me I tought it a bit to risky to mess with the circuitry, so I just connected it to the chassis of the USB connector. Seems to do the job aswel.

My problem is when I plug head phone I lose the sound if it moves a bit

Very helpful...Thanks!

That guy sounds like Billy Bob Thornton.

Thank you very much for the video. You are welcome at the new blog for Syncros, (only), www.vwsyncro.eu

Well Volkswagen just - German highend product ;)

German engineering, can´t beat that.

cool please show a video of the coolant pipes how they are installed as well as the coolant fill tank and overflow tank thanks

Thank you EVER SO MUCH for posting this!!!!! This is the videotape that made my family buy our 1991 Vanagon Carat back in the day!!!!! Oh, & um.......am I the only one who thinks that the music at 3:14 sounds A LOT like Sting's "Fortress Around Your Heart"?!!!! 4:46...........um, WHY are we talking about the turning radius of a Taurus wagon when it it is NOT pertinent in any way to this video since you couldn't put either a lift or tie-downs in a Taurus wagon?!!!!!!!

Don't forget its more a propaganda video then a informative video... "Better handling!!!....versus 4 wheel drive" duuuuhhhhhhh but versus a rear wheel drive with a suitable differential?

Hi Derek, First of all thanks for your video. I did the solder between the C components and the back of where the back of the jack was supposed to be, But I get no sound at all from bluetooth.... How did you sort out this method ?

why are most videos about women in wheel chairs, disabled, false limbs...etc... you are blocked from making a comment....A women is a women... all are sexy as hell !!!! false limbs, wheel chairs who gives a shit, who cares!! Its what is on the inside of your woman that maters.... copydex !!

She's a pretty woman!!

I want this thing!

Why didn't car manufacturers use limited slip differential, or positive traction differential for their rear-wheel driven cars and trucks? I would think that the posi traction would've helped with traction.

It's unforgivable that Volkswagen not only discontinued the Syncro models, but also discontinued the rear-engined Transporter (Vanagon).

Hey Drerek... thanks for putting this up on the web...

It is not that deep for a syncro, but we didn't know the depth before crossing it or whether we would be stuck in the middle of it which is why it felt dramatic. It is a road, but the road was submerged under the pond that the beavers made. A few days later we drove through going the other way and it was much higher then but I wasn't worried then because I knew the ground wasn't super soft. Search "swimcro" in quotes to see a deeper crossing (not mine).

The H6-3.0L engine may be the best overall engine for Vanagon (T3), everything considered. Reference the post on the middle/lower part of the page at www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=440872&start=200 and also that thread entirely and other similar threads on Samba. Eric Abercrombie sent the parts for the conversion to www.smallcar.com/ so that's where you would go to get your parts, and also go to www.rjes.com/ for the parts that RJES sells and then try smallcar.com for everything else. After weighing the alternatives, you can also check what is going on at Rocky Mountain Motorworks. See also: picasaweb.google.com/111803335891651546087 ============================== Evidence suggests that the amount of circumspection one should have about installing higher power diesel engines in syncro is increasing over time as we learn. Evidence is also increasing that there can be benefits to having a manual transmission oil cooler installed in any high power rig that is meant to be driven into the mountains fast and up highway interstates fast. ============================== See also: groups.yahoo.com/groups/subaruvanagon www.egroups.com/neo/groups/EZ30D/info (alternate: www.egroups.com/groups/EZ30D) ============================= Also for general reference: www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewforum.php?f=20 forum.club8090.co.uk/index.php facebook.com/groups/36419276257/ www.vwt3.co.at/index.php?name=Forums&file=viewforum&f=3 www.syncrosa.co.za/forum/index.php ig-syncro16.de/forum/ www.bulli-forum.de/forum/ autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/Diesel-Vanagon/ groups.yahoo.com/group/nwsyncrogroup/ autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/Syncro/ autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/Syncro16/ autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/Syncro_T3_Australia/ autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/syncro4wd/ autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/SyncroSA/ facebook.com/groups/36419276257/ facebook.com/groups/154433611260033/ facebook.com/syncro.westfalia autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/TDI-conversion/ autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/vanagon/ autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/VW-TDI/ cf.groups.yahoo.com/group/VW_SYNCRO_QUEBEC/ gerry.vanagon.com/cgi-bin/wa.exe?S1=vanagon gerry.vanagon.com/files/ www.vanagon.com/community/index.htm van-cafe.com busdepot.com gowesty.com smallcar.com

Do you have an updated wheelchair factory option video?

pretty cool, I hate how it sounds like an H4 still though lol

Wow thats pretty cool if u revd the car up and it stayed
