Starting 2006 Volkswagen Sharan 2.0TDI After 2 Years + Test Drive

[@PanProksik]

I like this VW Sharan. It may not look the best but it has a 2.0 TDi diesel engine and I like the repair you did. You gave it a second life . It can drive many more thousands of kilometers.

[@blackyung3]

you think 2.0TDi is a trustable engine?

[@PanProksik]

@@blackyung3 Not every engine is the best. The 1.9 TDi is a non-destructible Diesel, but this VW Touran has a 2.0 TDi so it can be different.

[@blackyung3]

@@PanProksik yeah i know we used to have 1.9 vw passat b5 we had it for like 5-4years and did nothing to the engine, now i own A3 2.0TDI

"Ohhh no, we need to replace the clutch... Naaa... let it DIE!!" - people are unbelievable... Thanks for rescuing her!

[@Ragnar8504]

All too often it's "A new clutch is WHAT?!? Let's get another used car, that's cheaper!". Labour is expensive in Europe and replacing a clutch is time-consuming. A few years ago you could definitely buy a runner-driver (road-worthy) for the estimated price of a professional clutch replacement job! Probably not a VW though, they're expensive when new and never really get cheap. The only affordable VW vans around here are T4s that have half a million km on the clock and Passats or Golfs are almost the same.

[@PetrolHeadBrasil]

@@Ragnar8504 but still...

[@aleaallee]

@@PetrolHeadBrasil I had a Citroen C4 whose clutch and flywheel broke and I had to spend almost 800€ in the mechanic to fix it.

[@carlbernard4197]

​@aleaallee Is because many places charge very high prices for their labor. Doesn't help when many of these people have 200k€ in just hand tools not including the diagnostic equipment. That is why they charge so much. Also building a shop is extremely costly like 400-600k€. 😮😊

2006 Volkswagen van sitting there two years need everything engine is good condition turbo seats are good German vehicles only one thing get vehicle moving forward awesome mechanic in the field flexliy bless you keep bringing new videos

[@Marc_Fuchs_1985]

It hurts a little, that somebody abandons this perfectly fine vehicle. Because I have the exact same, same year, same engine, but even with way cheaper interior and many more kilometers on the clock. The car in the video here is a rather high class version of the Sharan, maybe even the top version. It's absolutely worth to receive some investments to be fit again. This car is crazy roomy, very versatile and to me personally, I like the ergonomics of the interior and how it isn't yet littered with the overkill of electronics of cars today. It's modern enough to have all the essentials but old enough to not annoy you with countless messages, jingles and warnings.

[@split_pin]

Amazing fix to the issue of play in the input shaft of the gearbox. A lot of people might throw it away. The Sharan looks fit to cover many more miles now.

[@AliMackMechanical]

Old Vw never die nice one mate 👍

[@Ragnar8504]

Unless they've got the 1.4 TSI engine that eats timing chains. Yikes!

[@Mario-jd2mu]

from the noise it makes, the flywheel seems to need to be replaced. Anyway Bravo for the repairs you did, always a pleasure to watch your videos. Greetings from Italy!

[@Flexiny]

Brand new flywheel. That noise is from alternator pulley

[@Mario-jd2mu]

@@Flexiny Excuse me. I confused the noise. My 2003 Yaris d4d actually made that noise when the alternator was at the end of its life.

[@carlbernard4197]

​@@FlexinyThat was awesome! Just a couple of spacer clips and a clutch. Too bad you didn't have a lathe could have possibly saved the flywheel. Is still great that this little van can keep going. 😊😊

[@SiemensPowerHour700]

Reminds me of our old 2005 sharan that is now scrapped as we got into a serious side collision. It was a real tank and served us so well. Was really sad seeing it go to be scrapped because of the crash. Basically a van drove into the side of us at high speed which totalled the car. We all survived thanks to VWS brilliant safety even on a 2005 sharan. So glad to have watched this one which is just a year newer than our older sharan . Now we have a 2013 model which is still brilliant.

[@Marc_Fuchs_1985]

It's good to know this model is so safe. I have a 2007 model and love it, I want to keep it running as long as possible. I was amazed to see, how every single pillar in the car has airbags. I guess it came from the best times of VW. Also because of the interior, those older models just have great ergonomics.

[@SiemensPowerHour700]

@Marc_Fuchs_1985 you should definitely keep it running for as long as possible. They have such a distinct design that I do really like. And it is certainly great they have airbags on all the pillars. If ours hadn't been wreaked I'm sure we'd still have it. Ours was a navy blue coloured one which had tinted rear windows. Pretty sure it was a 2.0 TDI engine too.

[@matheusak]

great clutch change, so nice to see!

[@strawloki7133]

My family had 3 of these, all 1.9 TDI. Very nostalgic to see one again

[@UncalBertExcretes]

I managed to get 430,000 miles out of one automatic too, brought it with only 55k on the clocks and just changed the oil every 5-6k religiously and changed the autobox fluid every 30k. Ended up having the gearbox rebuilt at around 230k if I remember but it carried on to over 400k after that, orginal engine was running low on compression on cylinder 1 by time I got rid though, fair to say I got my moneys worth from it.

[@froschgrosch5247]

We have one that is going to be 20 years old next year, just amazing how reliable the 1.9TDI is

[@kashhameed3067]

I had a 2011 Ford Galaxy which was the same car and did over 200k miles in it, never skipped a beat, had the same done to mine, flywheel, slave and clutch. That pulley noise is the power steering pulley that needs replacing and the glow plug light flashing usually meant a brake light bulb was out. Great cars and superb engines those 1.9/2.0 tdi PD engines…

People complaining about clutch replacement. In a 2L modern diesel, these often need a DMF and self adjusting clutch kit. The job is super long and requires dropping the subframe and you'll often come across rounded bolts, snap bolts, things that won't budge, issues with hydraulics etc. Knowing garage labour time this can cost stupid amounts of money. I have spent well over 4k in the last 2 years on only 2 clutches and flywheels before attempting the job myself on my old car, and my god they're tricky. Maybe if the complainers could actually have a go, they'd stop complaining. A clutch used to be a 500 job, not any more

Seems odd - abandoning a fairly decent shed for the sake of a new clutch and possibly glow plugs.

[@КрумВачков]

Well likely those aren't all the problems, because if you look closely there was quite a lot of white smoke coming out of the exhaust even after driving and also there was not coolant in the car from the beginning so it probably has a head or headgasket failure.

[@matthewbowen5841]

Yep. One of the HIDs burned out before the end of the video, it has body damage, the front suspension seems to be collapsing outwards, its smoking a ton (probably from oil leaks) within the engine bay. Very impressive video, and I know VWs inexplicably have the reputation of rock solid durability everywhere but here in the US (where they have been notorious for their lack of reliability for 30+ years now), but I can't help feeling this is a waste of a clutch kit. But, hey, maybe not. Plus, now its infested with mold and has ruined tires and possibly brakes.
