Also, I’ve had AC units (HVAC control units) die due to water/moisture ingress. Check for corrosion on the plugs

So less than a couple of weeks of having been installed my front has already failed along the OS half. Cannot see any water ingress or any issues. I guess a good job I bought a couple ha ha

...centre console in the roof. Well that's how it's done on a t6 anyway. It's unlikely the fuse will blow unless there was cable damage or water ingress, I've had mine on the van for five years and never had a problem with it. Maybe the connections come unplugged at the light connection in the...

Have you tried VW dealers? They supplied and fitted mine a few weeks ago for about £170.00 Fitted craply I might add, water ingress within a week, bolts probably torqued to the correct tightness but were literally hand tight. Took them off, sika flex and bolted back on myself. They agreed to...

Thanks for the reply. The whole underneath was ringing wet. 2 days into the dehumidifier dry and and we're slowly getting there. It's frustrating as I've got all the new parts there ready to fit, but it's definitely worth the wait. I do have a new threshold, so will keep my eye on it. A good...

I "think" I've seen a filter (tried to photo last pic) but will take a closer look My drive where I am filling has the slightest of slope..maybe this is the issue?! I'll try turning the van the other way too

Who did you get to fix it for you @RichP ?

...corroded. Is this normal or do I have a problem? I've just taken the van out in driving rain plus it's rained heavily over night and when I've checked under the bonnet everything is dry with no visable water ingress anywhere. Any thoughts or advice would be very welcome and appreciated. Cheers

As far as I'm aware, yes. It's the first time I'd seen the brake lights come on with my own two eyes, as in, not in a reflection. It's both sides, too, so it's not like its water ingress and a short, unless I'm very unlucky.

...each cabin seat, but as you’d likely have a rubber floor in that area, I’d be surprised if that was the one and only source of water ingress. Underbody splash panels should also inhibit this. https://www.t6forum.com/threads/benefit-to-battery-under-passenger-seat.47146/ The other bungs are...

As @airwolfke says. There is no need to have a filler inside the cab, it’s possible to fill a tank with a pressure hose through a 12mm (1/2” inlet) with a non return valve (NRV). This filling line can be made at any point in the tank. There needs to be a separate tank vent with a filter to...

Hi I have a F45s awning fitted to my T6 together with side panels. I have sorted the rain ingress issue along the van edge using the pipe insulation method recommended by many and works a treat. However, I still have an issue with water running down the inside of the side panels where the...

...a bit sh1t. Surely they cut this strip to length for each job from a roll and they’ve simply cut this one too short? Does that gap risk water ingress under the poptop roof? Am I being fobbed off by the installer? I won’t mention the firm unless they don’t rectify it if that’s what the poll...

assuming a sticky button, btw the tin was washed out beforehand so it won't get extra sticky ;) Although just been told the spare key did get wet yesterday......

...is leaking badly and i have discovered lots and rust under the seal. I have the All In Plan so thought no problem. VW have just declined a replacement as apparently glazing units & water ingress aren’t covered by the policy. I have asked for a good will contribution but doubt I will get anywhere.

...Less than 2 months old and it’s leaking from the top seal of the sliding door, leaving puddles on the rear seats. I’m also seeing water ingress on the top seals of both driver and passenger doors, but not to the point where it’s dripping inside the van as much as in the back. Not only...

Thank you Niknak! I did this over a month ago after is got as bad as 50/50 if a side door would open from the outside on my T6 and the latch has worked faultlessly since. I bought a can of GT85 from Screwfix and did not need to drill a hole into the mechanism on mine as there was several gaps...

What RAC did to start the van again? ECU water ingress? BS. At first sight looks like battery issue. Check the voltage, anything below 12,2 when stationary will throw any sort of error on the Caravelle ( same happend to me on my last 2 caravelle). Check the voltage with engine running (just to...

I'd leave the roof bolts alone or you may get water ingress. A Reimo rail alloes you to fit awnings etc without lifting rof etc

Thank you! I’ve only had the van for a few weeks so haven’t fitted anything additional to it. Taking it back to VW where I collected it from and will see what they suggest. Thanks for the advice, much appreciated!
