Improve the performance and cooling of your VW Transporter T6 / T6.1 2.0 TDI or BiTDI with the Wagner Competition radiator kitThe 2.0 TDI and BiTDI engines of the T6/T6.1 use an indirect cooling circuit for the intake air: the intake air is not cooled by ambient air, but by the engine's own cooling water. Consequently, a reduction in the cooling water temperature results directly in better cooling of the intake air.
The newly developed Competition front water cooler increases the radiator volume of the standard water cooler by no less than 30% (12.4 liters versus 9.5 liters OEM) and the cooling surface area by 26% (2,208 cm² versus 1,750 cm²). The ratio between the inner and outer surface area ensures maximum heat transfer and sufficient airflow for adjacent components such as the engine water cooler. The increased cooling water volume keeps the thermal load at a lower level for extended periods, a significant advantage under full load or during power tuning, especially for the powerful BiTDI versions. The black-coated water cooler features a thermally conductive anti-corrosion coating for a long-lasting cooling effect. Installation is simple and virtually plug and play thanks to the detailed installation instructions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which vehicles does this kit fit?
The kit fits plug and play on the VW Transporter T6 and T6.1 with 2.0 TDI (84 to 150 hp) and 2.0 BiTDI (199 to 204 hp).
How much extra cooling volume does the kit offer?
The water cooler increases the volume by 30% (12.4 liters compared to 9.5 liters OEM) and the cooling surface area by 26%.
How does the kit work?
The 2.0 TDI/BiTDI uses an indirect charge air cooling circuit. By lowering the coolant temperature, the intake air is cooled more effectively and the system thermals remain stable for longer.
