Shared Vanagon Dictionary

  Type of engine using diesel fuel

• TDI

  Direct injection diesel engine with turbocharger

  system for removing diesel soot from exhaust gases

• Glow Plug

• Shift rod coupling

  Coupling for shift rod in Vanagon/T25 models with Type-4 or Diesel engine

• Front shift rod bushing

  A replaceable guide bushing for the forward section of the gearshift linkage. Paruzzi separates these front bushings from the middle and rear supports and lists this Vanagon/T25 part for Type-4 or diesel engines through July 1982, and CT or CZ engines through December 1982. Check the actual engine and linkage against that catalog scope; “front” alone does not confirm fitment.
