Volkswagen has been offering the fifth generation of the popular Volkswagen transporter since 2003, named the T5 and manufactured in Hanover and Poland. It replaced the T4 that was built from 1990 to 2003. VW still relied on the front wheel drive and front engine that were introduced with the T4. If the T5 has double headlights then it is one with a higher grade equipment trim. Unlike all the predecessors diesel engines with unit injector systems and turbocharging are used. The cams in the V5 diesel engine are no longer driven by toothed belts but by spur gear. Customers have the option to order some variants with an automatic gearbox and all-wheel drive named 4motion. But this is not true for the USA - for the first time the Transporter could no longer be exported to the USA, which had a significant impact on the sales volume compared to the T4. Once again the Volkswagen Transporter is offered in many equipment trims, including the Multivan. However, here the standard equipment was reduced and the entry price was still increased. A classic Multivan now costs over 30,000 Euro - alternatively less luxurious versions can be ordered which, for example, do not have air conditioning. You can replace the standard steel rims with fashionable aluminium rims which are offered at mytyres.co.uk. Here you will also find the right Volkswagen T5 tyres. A quick look in the registration book reveals which sizes are approved. Our selection of sizes and manufacturers for Volkswagen T5 tyres is large and offers the right tyre for every transporter.
