Hi all. Newbie here so sorry if this is all abit basic.
My question is... Which Engine would you recommend for a camper conversion? 110, 150 manual or 150 DSG?
My main concern is mpg. I am not going to be racing it around, so long as it keeps up well with traffic and can manage the extra...
Thought there would be interest in my 2024 T6.1 81kW/110bhp SWB 5 speed remap story
This is my 3rd van.
On my first 2011 T5 5 spd 8 seater Kombi (as it is called in South Africa) I felt that one can do better than 75kW (or 100bhp). Dastek made a chip for the 2l T5, and it was duly fitted. The...
Hi all
Looking at a 2021 T30 2.0 TDi. It's 110bhp and looking for advice. Mileage for the age is brilliant and it has everything we want for what we want to pay. But is the 110 ok? We won't be towing but will be putting in a full conversion.
Not looking to thrash it down the motorway or...

Hi folks, I'm buying the new(ish) Travelinlite rear bumper conversion along with the exhaust system (complete) but feel that there's a need to improve the engine's breathing too.
I have an adjustable chip module on the engine already and was thinking of replacing the air filter with a K&N system...
Just bought a 6.1 T30 150bhp highline Transporter pre reg from a main dealer (this one deal in Nissans but have a VW branch elsewhere) and had it delivered.
I asked repeatedly it was a 150bhp as insurance seems to expect it to be 110bhp.
When it arrived it had 5 gears which I thought was strange...
Afternoon all,
A bit of advice please from those of you who know your engine stuff. I'm looking to bid/buy on a 2020 2.0 TDI 110 with 17k miles on the clock, not been serviced yet but has just been topped up with 2 litres of oil. Should I be concerned with this amount of oil usage on a low...
In November we'll be container shipping our VW California 2022, t6.1, 4motion, 149 pk to South America for a 12 month round trip. We are planning to cross the Andes mountains several times. Some of the passes in Peru, Chili and Bolivia will be over 4000m. Has anybody experience with driving a...
Hi, new to forum currently deciding between a 110 5 speed in ascot grey or a 150 6 speed in indium grey. I like both colours slightly prefer the ascot. I am going to be converting to a camper and just wondering if anyone has advice for which one to go for. Is one miles better than other/better...
So the first modification I would like to do to the t6.1 when it has been built, is full coilovers and wheels. The van is a T30 110ps Lwb ( funds just couldn’t afford the 150ps at this time )
I’m looking at getting fitted the Bilstein B14 komfort coilover and springs. Now the question is would...
Hi All,
Looking to pick up a second hand T6 Transporter to convert into a camper while also towing, so will be pushing the GVM limits of the van.
There's a really nice TDI250 near me I'm interested in, but I'm worried that it really won't have the power to do what I need it to and ill regret...
Hi guys!
I'm new to the forum and new to T6 world. Yesterday I had test drive in T6.1 from Jul 2021 with 10k milage, 110PS.
When I started the test ride (cold engine), I could hear whistling noise while accelerating. It was like a whistling turbine noise. More you pushed the gas it louder it...
Hello, I am Andy from the Isle of Mull. We are wanting to buy a transporter panel van, not to be converted to a camper as this will become our only every day vehicle. We are looking forward to having nights out camping in it so will make a simple sleeping platform and will also want to remove...
Hi,
Just recently joined and first time transporter owner.
i’ve got a T6.1 T28 2.0 TDi 110 Highline. 2020 reg. I intend to tow a caravan with it.
I find that this 110 engine is slightly underpowered, as I have recently parted company with a 2.0 TDi 150 T-ROC and that towed the caravan...
