    Kombi on 20” - Ride Height Suggestions

    Is yours an empty van? Yours does look very high, aka std height. Std height is 470mm from wheel centre to arch at the front I believe. Mine is a Caravelle which is heavier than a std van, and is 20mm lower as std. It's had 30mm lower springs fitted to replace the std springs. So that would...

    Upgrading Suspension under £1000

    Hi I’m looking to upgrade my T6 18 plate Kombi’s suspension as the ride is somewhat wobbly if that makes sense. I’m not a mechanic so any advice is greatly appreciated. I’m thinking it could be lowered too. I’ve got around £700 to play with. Thank you ☺️

    Best / Sweet spot Wheels, tyres, suspension set up?

    Welcome and lovely looking van. Unfortunately what you are asking for is hugely subjective so you will get a big range of answers. What works for one person is awful for someone else. To soften the ride a bit one would normally look to increase the tyre side wall height, lower tyre...

    20” alloys - how’s the ride?

    Looking to change from our current 17” Devonports to a larger alloy on our T6.1. The current price drop at Leighton has me looking at 20” LV-1’s… Our suspension setup is a ‘Definition Kit’ from CRS. Not sure of the drop but not ridiculously low as we drive a lot to the Lake District, Snowdonia...

    Bigger alloys without affecting comfort

    Same advice as provided to the OP - PM @CRS Performance, discuss your requirements and follow his advice. He's 2.5 hours away from you, but you'll really enjoy the drive back (or, if you'd prefer, Steve can supply parts for local fitting).

    Hi. I would like some advice please from anyone. I've just bought a T6.1 Transporter t28 which has been converted to a campervan,but the van is sitting way too low and the front bumper tends to hit some speed bumps. It has 20" alloys but what doesn't help is the low tired wall on tyres too...

    255/55/R18 or 235/55/R18 Tyres for a T32 4 Motion?

    My T32 4 Motion (manual) currently stands on 255/45/R18 tyres on T6 Sportline wheels, the Tyres all need replacing but my opinion (echoed around this forum) is that the 255/45 tyres look far too small on a T32 and i wish to fill the arches by Tyre upsize as i do not want to lower the suspension...

    T6.1 Transporter 30mm lowering options

    Welcome to the forum, there's probably hundreds of threads on here with regards to springs/suspension etc. And it can be a minefield. Reach out to some of the specialists on here as per @Dellmassive’s post https://www.t6forum.com/posts/261355/

    Side step water collection

    I did this to mine (we should probably merge the two threads actually) https://www.t6forum.com/threads/sliding-door-lower-roller-guide-channel-holding-water.45877/#post-613394 I think general advice is against using any wet lubricant as that can pick up grit and grind the rollers. I give the...

    Lowering And Wheel Alignment Issues?

    In my experience which is 70k on a lowered T5.1 and T6 no it's not normal to scrub inner edge if its well aligned. I had my lowered 50mm T5.1 set to half load due to advice from garage and I did over 30k on set of Falken 255 45 18 and they still had a good few thousand left in the when sold...

    Won’t the fans run if it’s just finished as to cool down as you are not moving if the revs have returned to normal?

    A little advice on selling my T6 please

    So the time has come when I have to sell the T6 so we can make way for a new one. I’m after a little advice on what she could potentially be worth, now I know what I’d like for her and I know I need to be realistic. So please any genuine advice or what you think it might be worth, if you don’t...

    Go from 20’s to 19’s on a lowered van

    High pressure fuel pump disaster- is remap to blame?

    The 84-140hp engines appear to use the same pumps, so in theory should all be good. I've never dealt with mapping but sure others will offer advice whether to take it back to factory tune. I can feel your pain though, I've been through this earlier in the year. Luckily I only had parts to pay...
