Check out this story "Here I am with my 97 Eurovan Camper. It has 280,000 miles on it and runs perfect. Doesn't use any oil or coolant. Just passed smog, and the emissions were low. I drove it to Loreto Mexico and back last summer...Best thing about a VW™ is you can always keep 'em going. All they need is love." - Paul | ||

About Fuel Requirements For 10 years now, we've been telling people they "should" run premium fuel in their Eurovans...note we've been saying "should" not "must." Why? The bottom line is fuel economy. If you run premium fuel in your Eurovan, you will get better gas mileage. I (Chris) have done experiments while on various trips, and while running the lowest grade fuel in the vehicles, I've experienced up to a 38% decrease in my MPG. Yes, you read that correctly. Eurovans have an Electronic Control Module computer that will adjust the engine to help maintain the best performance based on the quality of fuel in the tank. The use of premium is recommended for these engines to achieve top performance and fuel economy, but it is definitely not required. About Tire Life Surprisingly, there are no guidelines to when a tire should be replaced. The most qualified study is from the British Rubber Manufacturers Association (BRMA). They recommend unused tires should not be put into service if they are over six years old and that all tires currently on a vehicle should be replaced ten years from the date of their manufacture. This is the practice we follow. About The Eurovan Weekender The Eurovan Weekender includes a list of basic Camper features, like a refrigerator/cooler box (with enough space for a picnic lunch and a couple of drinks) built in to the base of one of the rear-facing seats. The rooftop pop-up area, a feature unique among these vans, allows a full seven feet of headroom in the van when the bed is raised, and with the van in place it still allows occupants to sit in the main cabin while the bed above is set up. Extremely durable, tent-like, mesh-material flaps, along with sliding side screen windows down below allow for excellent ventilation. In 1999, VW™ installed a V6 engine rated at 140 HP, 2.8-liter VR6 to yield more torque in the Eurovan Weekender than it does in other VW™ models. A 4-speed automatic is the only transmission option. The Eurovan Weekender has a 4400-pound towing capacity (if equipped with brakes), and had a cargo capacity of 1/2 ton. Low-speed traction control is standard, along with fully independent suspension, rack-and-pinion steering, antilock braking, a reinforced floor panel, a daytime running light option, as well as a child safety lock for the sliding door. These versatile vans come standard with power windows, a pollen/dust filter, air conditioning, power locks, cruise control, 6-speaker stereo, intermittent wipers, heated windshield-washer nozzles, rear wiper/washer, and power mirrors. Seating 7, the Eurovan Weekender has a forward-facing center bench that converts into a 3-person bed. It also has a pop-up roof with 2-person bed, window curtains, an optional second battery, and much more! In 2001, the Eurovan Weekender's engine was substantially revised and gained 61 horsepower to a powerful 201HP, 2.8 liter V-6. Antiskid system and rear child-seat anchors were also added as standard features. See below for Eurovan specs. About The Eurovan Full Camper In size and configurations, the Eurovan stands apart from the pack. Introduced in 1993, the VW™ Eurovan Camper replaced the lower powered rear-engine, rear-drive Vanagon with a new body style, and a 109 HP, 2.5-liter 5-cylinder front engine front wheel drive model. A 5-speed manual transmission was standard, with a 4-speed automatic optional. In 1997, VW™ increased the engine size to a 140HP, 2.8-liter V6 engine, as well as dual airbags. A 4-speed automatic is the only transmission option. The Eurovan Camper has a 4400-pound towing capacity (if equipped with brakes), and had a cargo capacity of 1/2 ton. Low-speed traction control is standard, along with fully independent suspension, rack-and-pinion steering, antilock brakes, a reinforced floor panel, a daytime running light option, as well as a child safety lock for the sliding door. These versatile vans come standard with power windows, a pollen/dust filter, air conditioning, power locks, cruise control, Eurovan Full Camper Brochures The links below will take you to Winnebago's information about the Eurovan Camper. 2002 | 2000 | 1997 Eurovan Specifications These specifications have been gathered from many sources, and to the best of our knowledge, they are correct.
