Hi All, thought I would input as I'm becoming obsessed with all things related to the Transporter.
I bought a T5.1 Highline Kombi at auction last year which came with 20" alloys, exploria bed, night heater, lined in rear and wind out awning.
I'm useless at DIY but managed to put in a swivel to front double seats...
I've now bought a domestic fridge so looking forward to a cold somewhere in Scotland and beyond.
This forum has helped me so much,
Thanks!
Gerry
Hi folks
As i guess with many i found the forum when trying to figure out how to fix something on my Caravelle Se
and it has been very helpful and informative and as a result have been able to fix a problem(self caused with the air bag warning light ) when fitting a dash cam
I am a Ex RNXS marine engineer, a current (30 years) computer engineer with electronic repair experience, from Scotland
So any advice or help i can offer please feel free to ask
Thanks for letting me join the forum that is now added to my favourite short-cuts

Hello all,

I've just signed up having just bought a 2016 T6 Highline panel van.
Looking to convert into a nice Kombi / day camper.
Look forward to learning lots!!

En route is 18" Warlord wheels (anyone interested in some perfect condition Casavel wheels) GG AT3 235/55R18 104H tyres....trapeze side bars, Spoiler.
No pop top for me...thanks prefer a sunroof.....this is a stealth camper so the police local in Spain don't force you to a campsite at my favourite kite surf spot.....(they target pop tops)
No lowering for me either......I will leave that to you Southerners where you poop yer pants at the slightest pot hole........plus I want to head to Morocco Kitesurfing someday (post covid nonsense) and need to survive the roads in Scotland (worse than Morocco in places....not kidding)

Hi @Andnik.... Welcome to Team Sunroof...it’s a lonely club ...everyone wants to cut holes in there vans ....we sleep in the van but live in the awning/tent.....but I love the driving pleasure with all the light and air a sunroof gives
Except when you forget to close it overnight and wake to a flooded T6......yep done that already!!!! should have a rain sensor for auto close!!!Hi @Andnik....

Oh..on mine ..press and hold lock button ...windows close,mirrors lift and park.and sunroof closes and doors lock...I thought they all did that ....if it doesn’t maybe a mod can be done
Ahh but what happens when you live in a civilised place where you don't need to lock your car.....or your forgetful like me......auto close would be a good idea......maybe the rain sensor on the windscreen could have another use?Oh..on mine ..press and hold lock button ...windows close,mirrors lift and park.and sunroof closes and doors lock...I thought they all did that ....if it doesn’t maybe a mod can be done
