Exhaust Volkswagen Caravelle T4 (1990-2004)

The Volkswagen Caravelle T4 (1990-2003) exhaust category includes rear mufflers, central and intermediate silencers, flexible joints, exhaust pipes, and full stainless steel lines. These parts fit diesel engines such as the 1.9 TD (68 hp), 2.4 D (75 to 78 hp), and 2.5 TDi, as well as petrol 2.0 engines. Both universal and sport exhausts are also found depending on manufacturer specifications.

Compatibility depends on the engine and chassis number. Commonly supported engines and corresponding parts include:

• 1.9 TD (ABL, 68 hp) from 1996+: Rear mufflers and stainless steel complete lines.
• 2.4 D (AJA, 75 hp) since chassis 70-W-000001: Rear and central silencers.
• 2.4 D (AAB, 78 hp) from 1996-2003: Rear and central silencers.
• 2.5 TDi (1996-2003, long wheelbase): Intermediate and adjustable central silencers.
• 2.0 petrol T4 models: Mainly used rear mufflers.

Carefully check exact engine type and chassis to ensure a proper match when purchasing exhaust components.

Exhaust prices vary depending on condition and type:

• New central silencers or OEM-like parts start around €87 including VAT.
• New stainless steel performance exhausts can reach about €495 including VAT, with occasional promotions up to -10%.
• Used rear mufflers for petrol or diesel T4 models can be found from €50, often including a 3-month warranty and free returns within 14 days.

Multiple delivery options exist including standard and express shipping across Europe and internationally. Delivery times range from 1–6 days in Europe and up to 15 days internationally, with free shipping available for orders above certain thresholds.

Proper installation is crucial. It is recommended to:

• Use all new gaskets and seals during replacement to ensure tight exhaust connections.
• Replace sensors such as oxygen and pressure sensors where appropriate.
• Follow manufacturer instructions precisely to avoid damage.
• Have installation done by a professional workshop experienced with Volkswagen T4 exhaust systems.

Exhaust components typically come with at least a 3-year warranty limited to 100,000 km of use. Damage from improper use or negligence may void this warranty.

Yes, stainless steel exhaust lines offer excellent durability and corrosion resistance compared to standard steel. They help maintain optimal exhaust flow and sound quality over time.

Is there a need for a bigger exhaust on a T4?
A larger exhaust can improve flow and sound but must match engine and turbo specifications to avoid performance loss.

Could a defective wastegate or cracked turbine housing allow exhaust gas to bypass the turbo?
Yes, this can cause loss of boost pressure and reduced engine efficiency. Inspection is necessary if performance drops.

Will the turbo allow for bigger nozzles than the original?
Turbo modifications should be carefully matched; oversized nozzles may cause inefficiency or damage.

Can the 151 hp engine fit in a 102 hp T4, and is it much work?
Engine swaps require significant mechanical work, ECU recalibration, and matching exhaust manifolds and catalytic converters for proper fit and emission compliance.
