Helmut,

Yes, the T4 is assembled here in Taiwan!  We have three engine variants:
2.0 liter gasoline stick shift, a 2.5 liter gasoline automatic, and a 2.4
diesel stick shift (which is what I have).  All these three engines can be
had on a long wheelbase Transporter.  And only the gasoline engines are
available for the Caravelle.

I'm not sure though whether the diesel is a TDI.  Is there a way to tell if
it is a TDI?
