"Hey fellow VW enthusiasts, I'm seeking some advice on choosing the right ride height for my new T6.1 SWB. After snagging some LV 20-inch alloy wheels, I've set my sights on lowering it to achieve that sleek look we all love. I've got CRS in mind for the job, but I'm torn between two options: a...

Hi, the rollers have both gone on my sliding door and in the process they have stripped all the paint off where they roll on the bottom of the van. I’ve replaced the rollers but has anyone got any advice on paint? I’m assuming it must be something a bit tougher than a can of Candy White sprayed...

Hello. Complete Newbie here. I’ve had a T28 6.1 high line from new and it was converted at Xmas time. Only just getting used to using it. I would like to replace the factory fitted wheels and tyres to give a better look - but don’t want to compromise much on comfort or change the default set...

Have you used the search function on the forum? This subject has been done to death. Ride comfort is subjective, so what one person likes, another might hate. Talk to one of the suspension specialists and they'll advice you what will work best for you. One thing for sure is that it won't be...

Hi all and I apologise in advance as I know this has been discussed at great lengths already but I’m a bit stumped. I’ve received a dreaded nip (62 in a 60) I own a T5 sports line kombi windows and rear seats from factory unladen weight under 2040. North wales police insist that as my V5 says...

Hello all, Recently purchased T6 Lower Gloss Black Grilles 3pcs For Vehicles With Radar Sensor 15 Onwards for my t6 (2019 Shuttle) transporter but cannot seem to install it as the original ones are glued in with the front bumper. Any advice is very much appreciated. Thank you in advance...

Thank you

Hi. Are you still running this solow shortened shock set up? If so how does it drive? Soft, firm, bouncy etc..? Many thanks

Reference the Lower Dash Usb Socket, please can anyone advise me if the usb connection wiring goes directly to the headunit or somewhere else, as tracing the wire it would appear to go away from the headunit. I didnt want to strip all the dash out if only to find it eventually goes to the...

CAN OF WORMS just popped there . You are correct the 45 mm Solow spring kit clearly says one kit fits all vans including T6.1 , This is madness and 20 different vans will give 20 different heights so how can the sweet spot be 45 mm . In reality in a light T6.1 it will...

I asked CRS what I should say to the insurance company, the advice was that it was lowered by the amount specified. The insurance company adjusted the premium when I phoned to report the work done. Howdens. I believe it was as you suggest - a modification beyond a straight servicable part swap.

Hi all, first post. I'm picking up a 2020 start line at the end of the month. Bumpers will be body colour so will help with the modding. I'll be using the van for work(carpet cleaning) as well as family life. I don't carry a huge amount of weight. I have been given a set of 20's which I was...

Hi all my van has 30mm lowered springs I would like to have the rear a bit higher can I put standard springs back on the rear ? Looking for advice on this topic Any help would be appreciated thank you Martin

I'm looking to lower my t6. I'm no expert in this field so the advice I'm looking for is..... Aside from the lowering kit, are there any other parts you would change/upgrade when installing the kit? Is it possible to lower the van and avoid uneven tyre wear, I know wheels can end up cambered due...

Similar to others I'm currently running ring 255/45/18 on Momo revenge 18's. Spring suspension 40mm lower than factory. Van is a LWB T6.1 t30 manual, converted to a camper but also weekend daily drive. Speedo reads bang on at the moment. I'm thinking of replacing tyres with 255/50 or 255/55...

Morning all I’m looking for some advice- I’m collecting a t6.1 shuttle next week, I’d like to modify it but live on the west coast of Scotland quite remote and probably not the wisest idea to go to low with both suspension and tyres?! I drive a hilux with mud-terrains for work but not keen on...

Any advice of how you managed to get the spare wheel in there. Just having a go and it seems like there is no chance it’ll fit. I’m on the higher pin position to allow for a larger wheel but the bracket can’t get near to a horizontal angle. (Fitting 235/60/r17 to standard steel wheel)

The lower spring seat is an Achilles heel of the rear suspension The top of the rear spring gets the large platform that is rubber reinforced with metal as pic above . If you have a coil over kit these are removed The lower one is a standard VW part but troublesome we have...
