Yes the Eurovan Automatics are known for problems. That doesn't mean the
manuals are bullet proof. VW especially knows the light duty ability of
those manual boxes. The manuals have 1/2 the tow rating of the automatics.

127k & the 'manual' tranny is at the end of it's time?  I thought the EV
'auto' trannys were the problem with EVs?
If we were talking about a '73 air cooled engine I could see 127k being a
lot.
Did I miss something in this thread?
