...years is most certainly NOT the £350 many people claim they get their one done for in the local garage! IF you find yourself looking at a T5 180 bi-turbo, research the EGR / oil-burning issues very carefully before buying. If you get a Kombi as the base vehicle, or anything with OE VW...

The 140 engine was fine and they addressed the 180 issues in 2013 but it made us very wary of the VW bi-turbo engines. Mates have a 2012 180 and they are rapidly selling it on for a T6 Cali Beach before theirs blows up. It's not the owners, it's very poor engine and emissions ancillaries design.

The old 180 and new 204 are both 2.0 bi (not twin) turbo diesels but are very different. Otherwise I wouldn't have bought a T6; our 180 was a PITA. One is intercooled, the other charge cooled, totally different emissions control systems and they look totally different too. The old EA189 was...

It was a little bit odd; we'd picked the 150 over the 204 because we'd had so many issues with our bi-turbo 180 and I thought it would be similar; but I started looking at the stats and was getting worried about how much slower a 150 was than our old 180. So it was mostly joy but a tinge of...

This is the one thing that really concerns me about slapping some bigger rims on mine. I get brilliant fuel economy from my van (180 bi, manual euro 5), would be seriously pee'd if that went for a burton if I'd just changed from my 18's to 20's, and spent a couple of grand.

You got lots of capacity and options there! If you go the camper route do you have a convertor in mind yet?

...Transporter that is running the RS4 engine which was in one of the VW mags a while back). Opinions sought of those folk that are running a remap please. Mine is a 180 bi-tdi. What map do you have? What PS did you start with? What PS have got now? @BognorMotors @andythom188 @Olly hall...

You are the jammiest!!!

Nope. Their mistake. Ordered a 150 after having numerous issues with our 180 (the 140 was much more reliable) so was rather wary of the bi-turbo T6. But they made the error so we accepted it and it was "free." Looking at the crazy price rises, I reckon our "bargain" Cali is probably still worth...

Hi @Noddy996 , I have the 180 bi-tdi, so should get around 215ps after remap with whatever torque that releases. Not at all worried about trying someone else’s vehicle first in all honesty simply because I have had numerous vehicles remapped in the past, so know what it is all about. I also have...

Yep. After non stop issues with our bi-turbo 180 T5.1 Cali, I didn't trust another one so orderd 150 4motion. As the collection date approached I realised it was a totally different engine and began to worry the 150 wasn't enough. So picked it up and they'd given us a 150KW (204PS) by mistake...

Hi, I have now done 10000 miles in my new van (180) I've now put in a total of 4 litres of oil!!! My dealer says it's normal to use 1 litre per 1000 miles!!! (Oil ain't cheap anymore!) Is this right? I also have a very annoying vibration that I think is coming from the small box compartment on...

You got any pics of it fitted? Gutted as it was only £180 extra from factory but just too late to add

It took them 11 weeks, a replaced ECU and three EGR valves (a big job on a bi-turbo 180) to then realise the newer EGR valve needed a software update. They kept us supplied with decent courtesy cars (at one point we had two) but it meant missing out on two months of camping in a particularly...

We'd had LOADS of issues with our bi-turbo 180 (T5.1 Cali) so decided to order the single turbo 150PS engine. I'm guessing VW accidentally inputted 150KW (204PS) and so we got a 204PS. Yep it's probably a bit thirstier but we're well covered with a 5 year warranty so I'm happy with our "free"...

I've just ticked over 11K and I'm going to be keeping it a while and don't fancy the idea of 20k oil changes so I'm going to do incremental changes my self. I've ordered the oil & filter but I'm not sure that I like the idea of removing the oil filter and covering the engine bay with oil once...

@Ani If you go for the Euro 5 version (so the first 12ish months of the T6), you are probably better off with the 140 or 180PS engine. The 180 is the bi turbo version. This is the one I have, mine has a manual 6 speed box rather than the auto box. I can get up to 45mpg but do not drive above 60...

Hi there @Fidget, what the onboard computer tells you is a tad different to the real world economy if you were to calculate how many litres you had put in the tank and how much mileage you had done, in a tankfull to tankfull scenario. There have been a lot of discussions across the forum about...

Im not permitted to talk about it! Keep it courteous, polite and on point with the facts in black and white. VW customer services can't and won't reply by email as it has to go through legal/ senior managers. If your getting nowhere go to the press and then name your price! Did you buy as a...
