5 Or 6 Speed Gearbox??

[neil2860]

Quite new to the T5 scene and looking to buy a SWB van, but really need the 6 speed gearbox. How from adverts on Autotrader Ebay etc do I know what gearbox is in there?
Is there a specific vehicle model number?
As it is now I am having to delve through photos trying to spot the gearknob. Or contact the seller to ask them.
There must be an easier way??

Hi

Usually there are 140 BHP and above
I’m sure somebody will be along to confirm and have more details

Cheers

It’s set by engine output
There are four power options, the lower two come with the 5 speed box and the upper two come with the 6 speed box
So on a Euro 6 vehicle the 150 and the 204 engines come with 6 speed
On a euro 5 vehicle the 140 and the 180 engines come with the 6 speed box
