I started having typical issues with the Infotainment touch screen, basically not responding to touch, worse on the right-hand side. A bit of searching the forum and Google I decided the best option was to get the screen replaced. Found Andy from Huddersfield 07788 988178, also on eBay as...

But i guess most of this interior is applicable to you guys......I kinda owe a dept to this forum and the electrickery implications i've stumbled into here.......... it's also probably the slowest of slow builds and I'm silly time pressed so you'll have to bare with me a tad. We are country...

Good afternoon guys. One of my first posts so go easy on me. I've acquired some shuttle doorcards similar to the caravelle ones but without the chrome trim down the center. I've decided I'm going to retrim them with faux black leather on the bottom and do the center panel aubergine, we're...

Can anyone recommend a one man brake bleeding kit and if there is a sequence to bleeding brakes on a T6 T32? Looking to remove my brake calipers one by one to coat them hence the questions. Cheers all.

Hi all, I want to fit a factory westfalia detachable towbar, I have a 67 plate lwb kombi with towbar prep, can anyone advise me on what exactly I will need to do it myself, I've read a little on it and seen posts on foam pieces for strengthening the bumper after removing the crash bar etc, but...

Just wondered if there was any advice / VW schedule for maintaining the sliding door(s)? I guess keeping roller bearings and latches well lubricated and checking slider mechanism fixings for tightness are the things that spring to mind. Anything else to consider? There have been a few threads...

It is one year ago today (at day of post) that I purchased a 2017 Kombi to convert. I still have to finish the door to the rear cupboard and a other few bits and bobs but thought that it is near enough finished to post a few pictures. When I was planning my conversion I was desperate for ideas...

I had a go at installing the travelinlite 3 colour led footwell courtesy lights today as ambient lighting instead so connected to the illumination dial. I wasn’t keen on using the posi taps supplied with the kit or splicing and wanted to try and keep it as oem as possible and removable without...

Hi, can anyone recommend a diy pop top kit for a SWB T6 ? Or if not a tried and tested installer. Also what are the feelings regarding high top roofs pros and cons over pop tops. cheers, Pete.

SWMBO’s Octavia just been in for service and brake fluid - basically oil/filter change and check lots of things - £310 :eek: What is everyones thoughts on DIY servicing? Considering many of us rip stuff out, fit other stuff in and generally modify wherever possible! I’m the sort of person who...

Can I, a DIY hater/idiot fit a front splitter to my T6.1 ( if it ever arrives ) without jacking up the van?

Hi everyone. I'm going to take on the challenge of making some units for the t6. I can't get my head around the cost of pre made. Anyway, I've had a look at birch ply and it seems there are a few different grades which determines the quality (and of course the price!). I'm thinking to just...

Hello, should there be a security nut that came with my VW to remove the centre part of this alloy wheel?

Just finishing this, Really pleased how it works out. Enough space for several tops of battery and the other electrical gubbins fits in the front section.

Hi all, I'm curious to know how much £ you can save by doing it yourself if you feel competent with these sorts of diy. Any info welcomed. As always, thanks. James

HI, Everyone. So I decided to try and fit a pop top to my VW T6 myself. Instead of buying a full kit, I was able to find a lid, tent, gas struts, and hinges. But in order to install it I need to source strengthing bars and also the trim which finishes the job and holds the pop-top bed in place...
