Hi guys, bit of help needed. I have a T6 kombi, I've changed all the lights to LED and added some LED spotlights too. Problem I have is, they don't stay on for long enough when I open the tailgate. Literally a few seconds. Is this something I can change with VCDS? TIA

I have downloaded the removal guide (thanks) for torque and identification of the failing plug. Has anyone changed a glow plug themselves, I'm just wondering about the best way to remove the intercooler to get to the plugs. Don't really want to drop all the water if i can help it, just...

Recently I've notice when I turn the key to start my van, nothing happens for a few seconds. I'm turning the key and then releasing it straight away, whilst keeping my foot on the clutch the engine will start to crank after 3-4seconds. When it starts to crank, it instantly starts. Once warm, it...

Hi. I'm new to the forum and just purchased my first T6 (Had a T5 for years) Hope someone might be able to help to resolve a problem? I've just purchased a Stolen / Recovered 2016 Kombi from an insurance company. It's only done 20,000 miles, in reasonably good condition too. Basically, the van...

Updated glow plug removal workshop manual section

Anyone here have a guide or experience on changing glowplugs on a 204? As mine is fairly new and the nightmares of changing plugs in later years an application of nickel anti seize may be a good idea.

I'm really sorry if there is a "howto" PDF somewhere but my searches aren't throwing it up. I am a VIP member and cant seem to find any information in there either. Is there such a document/Guide?? I have a flashing glow plug light and the readout from a friends (non VW specialist) computer...

Got a 2016 T6 and just been told that the glow plug for cylinder 3 is faulty and that it will cost me £500 to repair. Anyone else had this issue? Vehicle is only just out of its warranty.
