Who's done the most miles in their T6?

[Jason Kew]

My 2016 T6 DSG has covered a mere 75k.. and I intend to get 350k out of her... Or more
so far, touch wood no probs at all.. reg in between oil changes, including dsg oil changes too

Sooo.. which components needed replacing first? Would be good to see a 'typical' mileage Vs problems timeline

We had an Audi 90 1.9tdi which managed 330k on original engine and gearbox.. and then just run out of life
so I'm definitely hopeful of more

Audi 90 1.9tdi which managed 330k on original engine and gearbox.

I also have an old high milage Audi, it just runs with minimal maintenance. It maybe part of VAG now but it’s build quality is far superior to a T6, built to last.

I have a 2016
Bought it March with 17k now has 23k.
And I don’t even seem to use it.

I still have my 2004 T5 1.9PD with just under 300k on the clock. Gearbox whines and age can be felt and seen but it still works, I use it for dirty/oily cargo van's are intended for (can't stain my T6!) and as a spare. It doesn't get much miles anymore though.

130K, and I'm stopping now. Another owner can take it from here, but ( touch wood ) nothing more than routine maintenance and a worn rear wheel bearing to show for it. A bloody great van, and a great servant to my business and my family.

Thats some miles/Kms. Have there been any major issues ?

 

[Sanyes]

I looked through the service history and didn't find nothing major.
I bought it in April and did ~7000 miles.
Starts like a charm, no hiccups and no smoke but the van only did highways (like 90% or more)

 

[PaulyJ]

152k!!! 2015 ex-rental. We've had new clutch and now an issue with alternator pulley we think. Other than that, all good!

Bought our camper (2016 euro5 van with new build) in January this year with 6000mls/9656km on clock now 13670mls/22000km. 75% in Spain, the rest Germany/France. Next year Italy here we come. Love getting away even if only for a day or three.......

Mine was a 2016 plate and had 109000 miles on it when sold last year. Had 3 of those egr pipes tho plus the usual discs/pads and 5 sets of tyres

 

[DXX]

5 sets of tyres

My cargo vectors will last 60000 miles at the current wear rate, what tyres were you using to go through 5 sets in 109000 miles?

 

[rover220]

I can join in again with my new 6.1. 1 month old now and 3250 miles done.

Tried them all but ended up with General Altimax which gave me the best mileage. It was a 204 boosted to 245-275bhp driven ‘hard’ as they say, average 23-28mpg with the odd 30 mpg. Tried Hankooks, Dunlop‘s, Pirelli’s

 

[ybeandy]

I'm going to hit 100,000 tomorrow, finished today on 99976

101k on my 2017

 

[superquadro]

I bought my t6 140 dsg from 2016 to 210000 kms, I performed the replacement of the complete distribution, the flywheel (game), emptying dsg box, and replacement of the 4 brake discs.
It has now 215000 kms and runs very well, no oil consumption, soft and fluid dsg box.

 

[bigdoc930]

331000 miles on mine 66 plate and still going strong
