Welcome new members

[MarkB2401]

Take your time to think of your lay out for a conversion, plenty of you tubers and this forum to give you inspiration

Thanks for the tip,
I've been watching youtube conversions for years now, something i have been intrested in doing for a long time.
It would be impossible at this moment in time to sleep 6 in the T6 im sure but in a few years it may be a possibility to sleep 4. Thats providing the van lasts, it will be well maintained and I've heard they hold their value well too, so fingers crossed.

Another new member here, just bought a 2017 T32.

Already changed the digitiser on the head unit as it had stopped working, have belt tensioner and service kit to give it a service in the coming days.

Seem to have some dampness beneath the sliding windows so next job is to track that down and potentially seal where required.

Hi everybody!

I think I haven't introduced myself but had already asked a lot of questions. And got many valuable advices!

So, my name is Anton, I'm a mechanical engineer and working as a software engineer. I'm living in Belgium (but originally not). Recently, after more than half a year of intense search around Belgium, Germany and Netherlands I have finally bought T6 DSG TDI 2.0 SWB 2019 FWD with auxiliary heater to convert it into a camper by myself. Thanks to this forum also, I got really valuable advices..

I like wild camping, true scandinavian and hindu cultures, rock/metal music, extreme sports and bicycle a lot.

Greetings all!
Just starting my "deeper" research into a new van. Did the whole T25 thing with younger kids and loved it, but in a different stage of life now. Time for something newer (more reliable!) that can take my wife and I through European and Scandi adventures!
Looking into T5 or T6 or ... blimey, technology has certainly added many more potential pitfalls.

I am planning on visiting the Stoneleigh Show mid January for inspiration, anyone been before?

Hi everyone… I’m new here, but at the same time a long-time owner of a T6 150 kW. I’m at a crossroads — whether to go lower or go more off-road. Even though I have 2WD, off-road is in my soul (motocross and enduro rider).

By the way, you all have beautiful cars here — every single one of you — because you drive a T6

Hi everyone. I'm T6.1 4motion user from Poland. Previously had T5.2 140HP, and still have an old T5 1.9BRS. Sometimes need advice, and sometimes I can help with my experience, as I do most of the repairs on my cars myself.

Welcome to the forum mate. Got any pics of your van/vans to share?

What's a T5.2 ?

 

[Sasquatch]

What's a T5.2 ?

A 5.1 with a birth defect?

 

[Sackmycook]

Maybe he means an early T6, non-adblue ????
