Fitment on a used intercooler varies by vehicle, so a bit of detail goes a long way. Our request form covers what breakers need to know, so every quote you get back is for the correct part:
Yes, but only on the diesel variants — the Viano was sold in the UK predominantly with turbocharged diesel engines (the 2.0 CDI and 2.2 CDI), and all of these use a turbocharger with an intercooler to cool the compressed intake air. If your Viano is one of the rarer petrol-engined versions (the 3.2 or 3.5 V6 petrol), it does not have a turbocharger and therefore has no intercooler. Check your V5 or run a VIN check to confirm your engine code before searching for this part.
The Viano W639 ran as a single generation from 2003 through to 2014, with a facelift in 2010, so a 2006 and a 2010 car sit either side of that facelift boundary. Engine code is the most important factor here — if both vehicles share the same engine code (for example both being 646 series 2.2 CDI units), there is a reasonable chance of compatibility, but ancillary mounting points and pipe routing can change across a facelift revision. Confirm the specific part against your registration with the breaker before purchasing.
No — the Ambiente, Trend, and Avantgarde are trim levels that affect interior specification, comfort features, and exterior styling, none of which have any bearing on the intercooler. What determines intercooler fitment is your engine code, not your trim badge. Provide the breaker with your engine code (found on your V5 or via a VIN check) and they can match the correct unit regardless of which trim your Viano is.
Almost certainly not — the 2.0 CDI (engine code 640) and the 2.2 CDI (engine code 646 or 651 depending on year) are different engines with different output levels, and the intercoolers are typically sized and configured to match each specific unit. Always quote your exact engine code to the breaker rather than just the displacement, as this is the most reliable way to ensure you get the correct intercooler for your Viano.
The Viano shares its platform and some drivetrain components with the contemporary Vito (W639), and there may be engine code overlap that makes some components interchangeable, but this is not guaranteed — pipe routing, mounting brackets, and core dimensions can differ between vehicles even with shared engines. The Sprinter uses different engine families entirely and is much less likely to be compatible. Give the breaker both your Viano's registration and engine code and ask them to cross-reference before supplying the part.
The 2010 facelift is a known boundary for the W639 Viano, and while the engine codes on either side may appear similar, ancillary and mounting changes mid-production mean you should not assume a pre-facelift intercooler will drop straight in to a post-facelift vehicle. Share your full engine code and registration with the breaker so they can check the specific part fits your vehicle before you commit to buying.
