Hi I'm a mobile cycle mechanic who works out of the rear of my lwb kombi. I'm looking to fit additional lighting to the inside of the tailgate to illuminate my work area when the tailgate is open. Ideally this would be manually operated rather than in conjunction with the interior lights, to...

Hi everyone, Got out the van yesterday and tried to open the tailgate (LWB panel van) and it was 'locked'. I tried to unlock it with the fob a few times and it wouldnt unlock (could hear it clunk the rest of the locks). Went to the side slider, opened that fine, operated the central locking...

done 1000 miles in new kombi now and still can’t locate rattle coming from rear tailgate area. First thought it was jack-removed-still rattling......then thought it was boot lid inner handle bumping against tailgate when going over bumps....nope.......I can only think it’s wires behind the...

New to this forum and T5/6’s in general. I noticed a T6 (see pic) with a key lock barrel in the handle (with additional deadlocks). I thought T6’s only had remote locking or am I missing something? Is there an aftermarket in retrofitting locks in tailgates? Any help much appreciated.

Evening all, my PV tailgate has just had a rear window installed and carpetted and I've just put the curtains up. I have a void centrally where I'm guessing the rear wiper motor would sit in a casing ? I can see my mobile phone or similar disappearing down it from time to time when Boris let's...

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen, I have noticed a split in my main seal for rear tailgate. I am looking for a good condition OEM seal or a recommendation for a good alternative. I am unsure of ebay items and replicas. Any help or direction of a good OEM parts shop would be great. Or better if...

Hello all, I’ve got a T6.1 with soft close sliding doors, and was wondering if any of you clever people have done an electric tailgate conversion, if so be very grateful for information on how and where you sourced the kit from and cost Cheers Neil

Evening all. Is there any adjustment on the rear bumper height? Mine seems to be rubbing the bottom of the tailgate for some reason.

Hi all. My Caravelle has this reflective strip at the bottom of the tailgate. It fits so well I thought OEM but VW claim to only do chrome versions. Does anyone have similar or know where to buy a replacement please? Cheers Neal.

Dear all First time post, could anyone give me any guidance on my t6 2016 plate mfd display indicating that the tailgate is not closed despite being shut. The audio beeping is every time I hit a bump and driving me crazy. I can’t find any adjustment and if a new Microswitch is needed is this an...

Morning, I really like the storage arrangement for the California table and chairs and was wondering about cobbling together something for my panel van prior to getting it carpetted etc. Anyone done something similar ? I've bought a Honda CRV boot table of Fleabay and will probably just use a...

Is there such as thing as a tailgate dust cover? For the bit which closes/ locks the tailgate and fills up with yuck.....vw equivalent of belly button fluff!

I've been looking at Transporters non stop for the last three weeks. I ideally want a Highline, low mileage and with a tailgate. Speaking to dealers everywhere they are all saying the same thing, that Tailgates are in high demand at the moment due to the surge in people converting them to...

Hi there, We are currently installing a tailgate into our 2016 Startline Van, before it is converted to a camper van during November. I think the donor tailgate is from a California and has a heated rear screen, and the wash wipe system/motor. Does anyone know if it is possible to get this...

Recently bought a Thule Wanderway tailgate rack (which is fab!), but like other similar racks is only secured by 2 security torx screws, and I now realise that you can remove the rack without opening the tailgate if you're prepared to lose the two lower clamps, which I imagine are easily...
