T4 and T5 deisels, this is the question
kerry daley - October 17th, 2006 at 09:18 AM

I have been advised to try and get a T4 tdi deisel, what are the good points and the now recognized bad points with the running gear generally. I am told the running gear is hugely expensive if you have to replace.

Also are the Kombi 9ss t5 a top vehicle with no major problems.

tanks a lot.
