leak

After recently acquiring and starting my own conversion I’m seriously troubled to find I have an indoor pool. The amount of water is a real concern, I can squeeze water out the mat like it’s a sponge. I think the snow exasperated the issue because there was evidence of water droplets when I...

Hi all, I'm new to the forum and seek some wisdom. I recently purchased a T6 to convert, it has full service history, no warning lights or issues driving etc. But being curious, I looked under the engine bay today and saw a small yellow droplet next to the timing belt and some staining around...

Hopefully someone can help with this... I've got a set of the Travelinlite lower grill DRL's fitted to my van, but unfortunately they filled with water after less than a year of being fitted. To Travenlite's credit they sent me out a replacement pair quickly, but I've not yet got round to...

Hi, I've not been a VW owner for long so apologies if this is a silly question... the step insert on my drivers side door seems to keep filling with water every time it rains. I open the door to get in and all the water seems to rush from the door itself into the step insert. This doesn't happen...

Okay so a college of mine noticed that when i drive away after a rainy days work that there comes alot of water out the bottom of my T6. So i checked and there indeed is a puddle of water inside the back splash cover in the back. Is this normal? I was a bit worried so i also checked the inside...

Hi guys, new to the forum and only had my T6 about 6 months. So in the last month I’ve notice some water runs in the passenger footwell coming from up behind glove box and some moisture out the bottom of the pillar where the fuse box is. Also in the same timescale as the water in the footwell...

New to the forum and like loads started sound deadening and insulating the van. Full panel van atm. Just about to insulate the rear ns quarter and seen a few drips on outer skin (arrow) got a light out and seen a little puddle between rear arch and light cluster. Bit concerned as no idea how...

Hi there Happy New year to all. I wonder if anyone has had the same problem and if so, what they did about it. We have a leak which seems to be located around the Strap Bars attached to the Roof Part. (the little metal brackets where you thread the straps.) I put a picture attached of what i...

First time away in the van in sunny Wales where it’s been raining everyday! While thats not an issue for us, the van seems to not love this weather! In the middle of the night we had a few drips come in from around the roof crossmember and N/S rear pillar. I checked the next morning and found...

We seem to have a leaking tailgate and sliding door in our 23 plate T6.1 Transporter. I wouldn’t have expected this with a 6 week old van but reading though some threads it seems to happen… Water seems to be passing by the seals, not a lot but enough to not want it. I know the best option would...

Just wondering if anyone has noticed this issue or has had the same. I recently noticed that I get water ingress / leak from inside the sliding door after rain. I'm not entirely sure how it's getting in and I'm not sure of the component name but It seems to be coming from the latch or the part...

A few days ago I opened the tailgate to hear water sloshing round inside. When I checked the tailgate had quite a bit of water pooled in the bottom. I had rained the day before and I had just washed it. I thought I would test it out today whilst washing. Tested round the window seal...

Hi, I have a water leaking into the van from the top centre of the barn doors. Both seals have been replaced but the leak still persists. I’m suspecting it could be a door alignment issue and a garage have advised I need to go to a body shop. Just wondering if anyone has had a similar issue...

Hey guys, Hope you’re all well. Just wondering if anyone can ease my mind and confirm if this is an unavoidable problem. Noticed a small leak in the passenger footwell of my 2017 T6 transporter (second image). Pulled the glove box off and found no real damp spots. Pulled the scuttle panel off...

Spotted pool of oil under engine this morning. Looked up and saw this. Anybody with and knowledge as to what problem I have now? Van is 2016 T6 T32 140 (170 remap).

Hi guys, I hope anyone can help with this. When it rains heavily, water collects on the inside at the bottom of rear sliding doors. It does not drain out but its clearly coming in. When you open the door, you can see water coming out. I asked VW who told me its a common issue and not to...

I've not been using the van much lately, and it can be parked up, sometimes for weeks in a garage. Whenever i do use it though, there always seems to be quite a lot of clear water where the van has been standing- usually below the front bumper area. I've always assumed that the underside of...

So my van has gone into VW for a few warranty niggles. One being water in the tailgate. They seem to think that it's not the typical high level brake light and that it's the fixings on the genuine spoiler. I was led to believe they are bonded on and can't imagine there being any concealed...

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...

Hi All, I've just purchased a t32 and after the torrential rain that we've had over the past day or two I noticed I was getting water droplets from the interior light unit in the front. I have a sunroof and on closer inspection (after removing the interior light unit) I believe the water is...
