Volkswagen Crafter

VW's large van - two generations, two engine worlds

The VW Crafter is the top-line van in the 3.0 – 5.5 t segment. The first generation (Mk1, 2006–2016) was built on the Mercedes Sprinter platform but with VW running gear - 5-cylinder 2.5 TDI and later 4-cylinder 2.0 TDI. The second generation (Mk2, 2017+) is a pure VW design shared with the MAN TGE, exclusively running the 2.0 TDI EA288 family.

We supply brand-new engines direct from the original manufacturer - not reman, not „as-new“. Every unit comes with full service documentation, compatibility verified by VIN, and we deliver it across the EU within 5 working days.

Parts

Parts for the VW Crafter

In addition to whole engines we supply all key components - so you avoid sourcing parts from five different suppliers and losing days waiting for „the last one“.

Why new

A reman for the Crafter usually does not pay off

The VW Crafter is a typical fleet and trade van that exceeds 40,000+ km a year. With a reman you have no certainty about how many kilometres the original block did, what quality the replacement parts were or whether it was overheated. The 2.0 TDI EA288 has a fuel system that is sensitive to component quality on top of that - the second repair usually arrives within six months.

A new engine has a clear 0 km, full warranty and no doubts. Under intensive use it works out cheaper in the long run - the Crafter sits at the workshop once, not four times.

Reman vs. new - full comparison

    Full manufacturer warranty - no exceptions, no curtailment for normal wear and tear.

  • Delivery within 5 days
