door

Hi folks, no idea which forum page would be best for this question, so apologies in advance if it’s the wrong place. I’m a new owner of a 2018 T6, and find that the front doors don’t open as wide as I would expect, and certainly not as far as my old van (not VW!). I can see on the door stops...

I noticed recently that the interior courtesy lights aren't coming on when you open the passenger door on my 2016 T6 Highline and I noticed today that the door open mimic on the dash also doesn't indicate when the passenger door is open. The drivers door does show on the mimic and also triggers...

After 3 months of ownership, I've only just noticed that my T6.1 van has odd locks. There is a key hole on the passenger side and not the drivers side. Is this normal? I had a car broken into many years ago where the lock was essentially forced with a screwdriver. I'm guessing that modern...

Hi, wonder if I can ask your advice. When I am driving, my right arm tends to rest on the top of the door and it is right where the door handle is. Has anyone come up with a soft cover or similar for the handle so it is comfortable for long periods ? Finding after a while that my elbow hurts as...

Hi all after some help with my passenger door issue. I recently changed the crossover in the door and broke the plastic clip holding the door cable. I thought I'd repaired it and put everything back together, initially the door wouldn't close and it felt like the locking mechanism had closed...

Now my passenger door wont open from the inside, central locking works as does the handle on the outside but the internal handle wont open the door?! anyone else had this issue and know the reason, im hoping its just a linkage issue.

Hello clever T6 folk. Here’s a little scenario for you to consider. I’m interested in your thoughts on this… Thud - the satisfying sound of my passenger door closing Thud - the chunky (and still satisfying) sound of the sliding door closing Thud - the barn doors closing with a solid, meaty...

Hi guys, Just bought a T5.1. Not sure if this is a feature or a fault. When opening the drivers door from either outside or inside, I have to pull the lever twice. Is this suppose to happen? Is it a setting? Or do i have a misaligned door latch that's catching? Cheers Lee

Hi all, I've probably been spoiled in my Skoda Superb where there was a central locking button on the door arm controls for both front doors. When leaving someone in the car outside a shop etc they could lock and unlock the doors without leaning across or around the drivers seat. I'm toying...

We live in Switzerland and it can get quite cold these days/nights.. recently noticed that we have been getting alot of condensation on the windscreen primarily but also on the other windows too i noticed tonight.. Its been 3 during the day and is now zero so nothing extreme.. As far as i...

Just wondering if anyone has fitted crossovers into a T6.1 door card? Hardly any flat surfaces to mount on (not to mention the sound deadening), so I cant see where there is room?

Hi All, Have recently changed speakers and damaged a couple of the little clips when taking the door card off. Ordered some replacements and when i again took the door card off to put the new ones in broke a clip that links to the door handle, D'oh! Trying to explain this part to the dealer was...

There is a small pad that i think is there to prevent the door catching the bodywork when you close it. These pads are knackered and my doors have been catching the paintwork. Does anyobe know where i can buy these pads or is it just something i could purchase at a hardware store ?

Afternoon Volksfriends, I hope you're all keeping well. I'm not having much luck with my T6.1 so far. On day 1, the barn door opening mechanism failed. A month in, the front drivers window started leaking like a sieve. Now I've got water coming in through the top of the sliding door past the...

ok - Photos to follow that may help, for someone who understands electrics to a decent level. - Got a few issues. 1) Passenger door still showing its open when its not. 2) Manual door lock switch on drivers side (on electric window panel) not locking the van now (Does unlock) - I've checked...

Dudes Problem doing my head in. Mates got a 2017 T6 and the door open warning light on the dash says the passenger door is open. Randomly came on the other day while we were vacuuming it and it won't go off. Drove over me VCDS in the summer with a mini digger (don't ask...) I can't use that to...

Workshop manual section for door removal.

Today the van was locked up on my drive and then suddenly the alarm went off. I looked out of the window and the courtesy lights were on. Turned the alarm off, but it wouldnt reset. Went into the van and the icon in the display was showing the van with the drivers door open and wont go out...

As you can see In the picture my hinge has snapped so the door just swings freely. Is this an easy fix?? Thanks

I did this today to swap our old beaten up door with a nice clean one shipped from Poland. You will need to remove the door card, remove the carrier assembly and lock, including removing the loom if you are changing the door for another one. I guess you could remove the loom from the van side...
