    Masses of white smoke

    I assume it was all OK (appart from the EGR fault code) prior to taking it to get the EGR/Cambelt/waterpump fixed? It sounds like something that probably relating to the work they did. Hopefully just something simple. I would be calling them to get it sorted.

    Euro 5 engine.

    ...member here, got it in 2019 and it's a great workhorse having just gone round the clock. Replaced EGR at around 65K and had a couple of cambelt changes, apart from that just regular servicing. I was clueless about adblue etc. when I bought it, I wanted a LWB Kombi and realised I was lucky to...

    Noobie , t6 cambelt needed? 33k 5 years old

    Hi all. I have just paid the deposit on a van, 67reg, 33k mileage, highline model. The van will be mot'd and serviced, I asked about the cambelt and she said that VW have changed it to mileage only now and the 5 year rule no longer exists. This is a VW approved dealership. Anyone else...

    Big service quote, am I being ripped off?

    You would think so. Are the new guidelines applicable to older T6’s like mine?

    Cambelt + Water Pump Replacement - Official guidance

    ...squeal noise from the front of the engine for the past couple of weeks. Defo a dry ball race type of squeak. It has to be the aux belt or cambelt. I did suspect the latter as aux tensioner was done under recall a few years ago. The forecast rain never appeared today so it took about 45 mins...

    Engine knocking / Tapping - Potential DMF problem?

    As you're a manual, I'd be put in a new three-piece clutch on there as well. Maybe check the engine mounts front rear and side. The Cambelt and water pump job is due at 140k but that's the other end of the engine

    ...of the business have replaced a pop top roof, fitted solar, and the garage side have replaced an EGR valve, done 2 x services & MOT’s and just replaced the cambelt / water pump (at my request). Not had any issues with any of the work so far and they’ll loan a car while the van’s in for a service.

    Cam-belt change

    Hello, my 2016 T6 last had a timing belt change in May 2020 at the VW Van Centre West Yorkshire. My query is 5 years on should I get the belt changed again now (60k in clock). I ask because reading other posts I understand the change frequency is now 133k miles and no time period. I'm wondering...

    Want to be T6 owner!

    Re. cambelt change and mileage, imo the new advisory 140K should come with the proviso of an annual visual check for wear/tension ( as per European servicing schedule ). My 65 plate Kombi has just clocked 100k and had two belt changes since I got it 6 years ago on 55k. Not long after I got it as...

    Engine stalling

    Maybe check your cambelt, a missing tooth or loose tension can cause these sort of running problems.

    Timing Belt - Safe or risking it?

    I got 6&1/2 years out of mine, was still fine but it’s only done 44k now. Vw told me it was 4year or 133k. Winged it for a couple of extra year to save the planet by adding another perfectly good cambelt to the graveyard.
