102ps

Hi everyone I've had advice that 102 BHP wouldn't be enough for a T28 or T30 4-berth camper.. any advice on what sort of BHP I should be looking for? I'm trying not to restrict myself to looking for closer to 150, unless that's more advisable. Any thoughts would be great! Thanks a lot Alex

Hi. As the title, I’m looking for a tuning box for my new purchase. Get in touch if you have one or know where I can get one at a great price. Thanks, Scott

Hello everyone! Our family is about to gain 2 new members as my fiancee is 2 weeks away from having our twins. With the two we already have, we need the room and flexibility of a Shuttle. I've found a well priced 2017 102bhp with 38k on it that is in great condition all round, including leather...

Long, story short I’ve had to replace the engine in my T6 102 highline as the old engine killed itself (44k miles, and out of warranty). Anyway, I sourced a new engine a very low mileage CXG model and my mechanic has just fitted it. I made a slight mistake though, as it turns out the new engine...

I'm currently looking at a T6 camper conversion, the conversion work is good, everything I'd want but.... it's 84 bhp. My last van was 102 bhp and I had no difficulties with it but wondering what other's experiences of the 84 are. Day to day use, several miles in town back and forward to work...

Hi guys, newbie here. I have a 65 plate T28 SWB 102,Manual 5 speed... I have a little issue that needs addressing! Driving home from work yesterday on the motorway and I started to slow down so as you do, I start changing down gears. However, I'm unable to! its literally getting stuck in 5th...

Hi All, I'm new to the Transporter world. I've just signed up to get a T6 Highline 102bhp (Euro5) for a campervan conversion. I was thinking of getting a 140bhp remap for the extra torque and economy. I'd even seen Celtic tuning were offering a 187bhp stage 2 remap but surely that's putting too...

Hi all. Possibly selling my GTD estate to enter the camper world and although I really wanted a 150 I just cannot afford it. I’ve found a dream spec 2018 102 (dream spec apart from the 102!) but I’m scared I will instantly hate the 5 speed? Coming from a DSG 184 GTD isn’t going to help matters...

Hi all. I have a Highline 180 DSG Kombi. Does anyone know the approximate towing weight capability of the van? I have a leisure trailer that should be around 1200kg loaded which I'm sure it can easily tow. It is more a question of being legal. I took a look on the internet and nothing obvious...

So, after a wait that felt like a lifetime, I collected my new (to me) Camper King van. It’s a MY17 T28 102 Highline with the “Santorini” conversion. First impressions - love it! Build quality is excellent. Everything works as it should, with no rattles or squeaks. Despite having 50k miles on...

So, lots of folk aren't happy about their mpg in the larger output engines, but what about the the 102 and 84ps? There're keeping quiet don't you think? Are they similarly annoyed, or do they hide a secret? Are they getting amazing mpg, and does anyone remember the Bluemotion 114ps T5.1 that was...

I’m looking at getting my first T6 to get converted to a camper and looking at most of the adds there seems to be loads of 102 s around. I did manage to get down to busfest to have a look around at some of the wonderful conversions and I must say there is some amazing stuff out there. Me and my...

I am just about in a position to buy a van. My plan will be to convert it to a campervan as money allows. I have looked on the VW commercial site and seen some nice T5.1 vans and also some T6’s. So my question would be, is there be any drawback to buying a T6? Are all the conversion parts the...

i am looking to purchase a van for conversion and would appreciate advice on the engine options. The majority of vans for sale are 102bhp and i wonder if this has sufficient power for a conversion. Is the extra cost of a bigger bhp worth paying for? Do drivers of 102bhp vans find them ok or...

Keen to look at pushing up the power output of a T6 180 DSG 4 Motion but want to be able to remove any evidence in case of warranty issues. What's the best option?
