Hi guys, When removing seats to run Dc-DC wiring, do I need to disconnect the starter battery first? T6.1. I know there are seatbelt and airbag connectors etc under the seats…

Here I have a brand new Makita drill. These retail at around £160. This is for the body only. But can supply 2 brand new batteries with it. There is no box. How does £200 posted with 2 batteries. These are around £40 each.

Hi guys is this AGM or a wet battery ? I thought it was AGM

Afternoon all. Having some starting issues and want to confirm whether this is OEM battery. It's 5 years old if so and could probably do with swapping out?

Is this ok for a base under the drivers seat? Or do I not really need the wooden base. My thinking is that as the lithium battery will be on its side. it would be better supported on the wood. The dc to dc charger is screwed in now and I have cut the rear out to aid cooling

Advice needed please. 2016 shuttle self build camper. Converted early 2022 so battery approaching 3 years old. I have a victron system, TR 12 12 18 b to b charger, victron smart solar controller and a victron smart charger for mains hook up. At this time of year with van stood outside with no...

And still be able to start the thing? BM6 type battery monitor on starter battery. Not driven for a few days, started fine yesterday but only ran it for 5 minutes while testing something. Seems to read SOC low anyway (I realise it's just making it up from the voltage).

I have a diesel heater mounted under the van. And so far not utilising the space under the drivers seat. I can’t fit the 280ah battery, plus inverter etc under the seat, but was wondering if I put the inverter, charger, mpp etc under the seat, and the battery in front of the wheel arch, would...

Hi, I have 2023 T6.1 using a Sargent EC176. Previously I could select either leisure or vehicle battery as power source. However, when I try to select the vehicle battery as source now it says "vehicle battery not connected". I have tried changing the 20a fuse labeled vehicle battery on the...

Hi all, I have a bit of an odd one, my t6 is sometimes reluctant to start but has never failed. I purchased a BM300pro to monitor the battery. The battery seems to be constantly charging at 13.4v with engine under load, but as soon as I run against the engine (coasting to slow down) the voltage...

Hi all Really Could do with a new battery for the van, VW have quoted me a little over £450 fitted. Most certainly have the capabilities of changing one myself but they have advised it needs ‘coding’ 2021 T6.1 T30 with start / stop Can anyone advise if this is correct or they will self...

...van However my van is a lot more energy intensive than my old T6 so I have upgraded. Paid £400 for it looking for £250. This is the actual battery but without the monitor. It is the pro version which has a bit more about it than the cheaper 100ah. Actual capacity is 106ah...

I have just recently purchased my first VW 5.1 converted camper and I am looking for some help. To start off it has an AGM LP100 leisure battery. This is fed from a 175w solar panel on the roof through a MPPT 75 15 smart solar charge controller. The 240v hookup is under the bonnet and leads...

Hello. Great forum, hoping I can find some help. I have a T6 camper, 2016, and last year at some point the leisure battery stopped charging. Everything seems fine when plugged into the hook up but the leisure battery gets no charge. It doesn’t charge while driving either. I have had the leisure...

I bought a plastic T5/5.1 battery cover. It doesn't fit exactly but it's close. I cut off the tab (as suggested in other posts) where the red arrow is but I couldn't find any photos of one fitted to a T6. Also the poppers that go into the slam panel doesn't come with it so I had to improvise...

Hi all. Fitted a repaired Ablemail B2B charger this morning. Refitted charged leisure battery and within 5 mins leisure battery dropped to 9.7v, disconnected leads and battery measured 10.87any ideas please or is this normal? MPPT was flashing battery icon also at 9.7v. Please note at moment...

Evening all! I may be being over cautious here but..... I have a 95ah AGM leisure battery, 4 or 5 months old and changed out my Sterling b2b charger at the same time to mover over totally to Victrin except for the Sargent panel (I disabled the charger when on EHU) Anyway.... Considering the...

...I understand it the 13a socket behind the passenger seat only works when the van is plugged in to external power. So what does the leisure battery power? Just the cigarette lighter behind the passenger seat and the interior lighting? There is an aftermarket inverter that wasn’t working...

I have a ex rac van which has the factory fitted leisure battery. It’s an agm battery which was identical to the starter battery until I replaced it with a bigger one as it was failing to start intermittently. Obviously the old starter battery didn’t have enough power to start the van but would...

...a 2019 T6 102 horse power (specifically - VOLKSWAGEN TRANSPORTER T28 TDI P/V HIGHLINE BMT). Sorry if silly question, but the OEM starter battery (Brand: Varta - Model: EFB+ 5TA 915 105 B) is on its last legs and I need a replacement. The current one has physical dimensions as follow...
