    Odometer reading different on VCDS/Calista

    Hello again.. Bit of knowledge that surely can't offend any of my fan club. Just genuine help. And this may also have been discussed....and yes I know some of you are experts already.... But the forum is for newbies also. I had a customer email me last week about a van he bought with 63k on...

    Carista - Transmission mileage much higher than engine mileage - what's going on?

    Hi all, I picked up my 2019 T6 204 DSG last week and ordered a Carista OBD which arrived yesterday. Out of interest, I've been going through all the menus and looking at the information and noticed a huge discrepancy between the values for Instruments/engine mileage (both exactly where I...

    Advise for high mileage

    Hi all, I ma close to put my cash on a 2020 T6.1 LWB super basic (just business pack) with 65k from a VW dealer. It is priced £19,680 + VAT. This will be a compromise since I would like DSG and tailgate. I am planning to use it as daily and only driver, week ends away (sliding bench/bed on the...

    Rock and a Hard Place

    Hello. I had hoped to have got a van by now but I keep dithering and convincing myself that I need a different option. The main hurdle is whether to get an older van with lower miles or a newer van with higher miles. My budget is 16-20k., so it seems to boil down to a 14/15 EU5 with 50k...

    Verify mileage on imported T6

    A German guy moved to Sweden and brought his car with him. Its a T6 Multivan with only 15000km on the odometer. Seems very legit but is there any way to verify the milage somehow. The car has not been serviced yet so no service history. Since the car is imported to Sweden and got a new...

    4 Years, 95,000 Miles Stick or Twist

    I thought i'd give my thoughts after 4 years of ownership and 95,000 miles covered, they may or may not be relevant to anyone. Looking back over old posts, i didn't realise the discontent i had for that van at times, so it would be a fair reflection to give an overall picture of my ownership...

    Who's done the most miles in their T6?

    Got my T6 150 Kombi back in September 16. Have now just passed 36,000 miles in it. What mileage are you all on now? Anyone passed 50k yet?

    Show me your Odo!

    I'm wondering whether I might have the highest mileage T6 on the forum. Just being nosy really - who fancies posting their mileage and saying a bit about what a typical week of driving looks like? I'll show you mine if you show me your first :D
