Congrats! There are a couple of threads on here about removing the tachograph monstrosity, but, apparently, the dash gets butchered when they fit those, so not just a case of removal. :(

Hello everyone,
I have a request: I am looking for the VIN number of a T6.1 transporter / caravelle with an original dedicated tachograph installed by the VW factory (7LA.957.041) - the car must have a VAA gearbox - i.e. a 7-speed DSG with a 4Motion drive - I need to equip my T6.1 caravelle to...
This was only being discussed within the last couple of days. Have a read of this.

What’s this monstrosity? #tachograph
Vehicle TYPE 7JO
engine designation DNAA / 110kW / DSG+4motion
- I'm talking about the tachograph pulse generator - this is an element that in most trucks is placed in the gearbox to directly read the movement of the vehicle - there is no option to place such a sensor in the T6.1, so the...
Hi - I have looked on that thread and I can not actually see how soemone removed and twaht it looked like afterwards. Surely there must be some pictures or a set of instructions to remove it. Welcome any thoughts.
Generally speaking passenger vehicles don't require tachograph.
Additionally, I expect the MAM of your trailer to be 2220kg(you have quoted 2500kg and 2000kg).
Can you confirm by posting the photo of your engine bay weight rating sticker?
...is present in this particular configuration. If this is confirmed, I will ask you to indicate the markings of the harnesses to be connected in my small truck T6.1 :)
Best regards from Poznań

Ahem... but T6.1 wiring diagram suggests "Tachograph sender -G75-" plugs into DSG gearbox - (3)
...gearing ratios.
Possibly also PAU would work (interestingly was installed only with 2.0 l 103 kW (not 132kW)
Possibly also MKB - with tachograph preparation (probably a rare one)
All the above based on my interpretation of Workshop Manual - 6-speed manual gearbox 0A5 (Transporter 2010-)...
Hello Robert
For today I have a set of TACHO + sensor + antenna - the whole thing comes from VW Crafter /MAN TGE - so the sensor itself may not be suitable - not suitable for my T6.1

Hello Robert /again
And if you are asking about the weight of the vehicle - the permissible total weight is 3080kg - I have already read the regulations and I know that sometimes when going to buy goods, especially to Germany - I must have a TACHO - the weight of the vehicle set will always...
I didn't say thank you for this information so thank you - very helpful indeed and it matched exactly with what I managed to find out from a VW transporter gearbox specialist in Birmingham.
I know that a tacho is not required for passenger cars - but it's about moving with a trailer - sometimes I have to transport a load of heavy chain motors - so I will use a trailer with a GVW of 2500kg or 2000kg - for my T6.1 (GVWR 3080kg - a maximum GVW of a trailer with a brake is 2500kg)
