Team Gen Six

Hi all,

Are there many Generation Six owners on the forum? Just wondering how many we might have amongst us.

I’m thinking of searching one down (out of the 196 total apparently registered) but I think they’re pretty rare especially with sensible miles so might take me forever.

Thoughts?
Hi there

I have a 19 plate black one 34.4 k miles on the clock which will be getting replaced for a camper soon
 
I have got a 2016 generation six 150 dsg.
Love it to bits! 50k miles on the clock. So smooth and comfortable, quiet and reasonably cheap to run.
The only appealing car I would replace it with it’s a G wagon.
It shouldn’t be difficult to source one.
 
Finally is at home! Never liked it but fell in love when I saw it in flash .

2016, 42k miles Serviced every 10 k miles, last at 41500. DGS oil done at 38k miles, cambelt kit done last year at 40k miles.
Rear tyres cheap Chinese rubber but new, Falken to the front. Will solve this after the summer with 4 crossclimate…
Hi new member here pick ours up exactly same week Saturday
 
oh man! Don’t do it! One year later and you’ll bank account will suffer a lot!
You’ll go through all the phases, and before you realise it, money is gone :)
Upgrades will follow one after another: new tyres and wheel alignment, upgraded brakes, new steering wheel, wireless charger, paddle lights, footwell lights, engine remap, gearbox remap, koni active shocks just to mention a few…
 
Thanks VW are changing shocks and suspension mounts prior to sale but full BW history plus warranty fingers crossed had a previous caravelle with 286k
 
G'day from Australia folks 🇦🇺

I have joined Team Gen Six recently with my 2016 Generation Six TDI450 purchase:

These forums have been super helpful, I've used various posts to order the missing hub caps and extraction tool.

Next steps will be:
  • some PDR or respray on various panel damage
  • fix or replace steering wheel rattle
  • looking at camper setup in the rear
Thanks for reading 😃

The blue and silver! I’m not sure we got this colour combo in the UK.

In Australia, most of them were sold as:
Reflex Silver / Acapulco Blue with Alcantara leather in Titanium Black

I personally would have loved the Candy White / Bamboo Garden Green, but no one ever sells the green ones hehe
