dealers

Help Just had a service done on a service plan, as always I expected the “breaks are 60% worn” every single visit there 60% ( had new pads and discs, 16 months ago) it’s the Cambelt I’m concerned with! I had it done with this main dealer a few years ago, it’s not logged in the service manual...

So….. in the quest for silence after having great success replacing rear arb bushes, shocks and updated spring seats, I decided after watching autodoc videos on YouTube that I would replace the drop links and front arb bushes too because now that the rear is quiet I became aware of them...

I know there are numerous posts on this but just looking for a very simple unequivocal explanation of how it can be done at a main dealers if indeed one exists. I have read posts where it is stated they won’t entertain changing the settings which if that be the case the following is irrelevant...

Hi All I'm looking for reviews of Swansea Van Centre to compare experiences. I have my own dealings with them, and will keep them to myself for the time being, but due to ongoing circumstances, and the fact that Swansea Van Centre seems to intentionally limit public reviews, you can guess where...

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...

Hi all, I picked up my 2019 T6 204 DSG last week and ordered a Carista OBD which arrived yesterday. Out of interest, I've been going through all the menus and looking at the information and noticed a huge discrepancy between the values for Instruments/engine mileage (both exactly where I...

I have just picked up our camperking high line 2018 and I purchased it from a dealership who are agents for camperking, The vehicle advert stated front and rear parking sensors but when we drove it last weekend for first time noticed there was no front parking sensors ? Do I question this with...

So... I have seen the threads about Service Plans and would like to have a bit of peace of mind...... I have a 21 plate T6.1, which was registered March 21. I want to get it serviced before the 3 year warranty runs out, in case of anything being picked up. It is not due for a service for some...

Hi guys I’m new to the forum. I recently carried out my first oil and filter change since buying my T6. I noticed on all the previous main dealers oil services that they charged for a new sump plug. So naturally assuming it had a crush washer I purchased one with the oil filter. However on...

Are kombi sportline vans still available new 73 plate ?

ADVICE PLEASE GENTLEFOLK! My 2020 5 speed poverty line model with 21k on the clock is out of warranty now by several months. I've had a major service from Midland VW Ltd in Cannockshire, and an oil change from them after I had the infamous 'oil too high' warning. Their service has been...

As I have mentioned in other threads, my van, when in at VW Van Centre, Manchester for service, got damaged in their carpark by another vehicle scraping along the side of it. It was, we believed sorted out at the time, but on better inspection, wasn't. To cut a long story short, it was in their...

Hi all. I've just purchased a T6 from a VW branch. 2017, 33k miles. Highline I wanted to get a cambelt as part of the purchase, as I am still on the mindset of 5 years.. they will offer a cambelt change for £599 instead of the £699. I could go a local garage and I think they would charge...

Hi all, This is more of a vent than anything else as I'm feeling fairly upset about the following. Barring my home, this is the most expensive thing I've ever bought and it annoys me so much that others (and so called professionals at that) can care so little about doing their jobs properly...

Morning all. Got a quick question for you knowledgable lot ! I’ve recently bought a T6 Kombi, and been doing some servicing/maintenance, and it’s raised a couple of questions. I fitted new discs and pads on the back, parts supplied by my usual supplier were spot on, however, when I went to...

So, I recently bought a 2019 Caravelle 4motion from an independent van dealer based about 200 miles from where I live. This was sold to me with a 3 month warranty as stated on their website and when I questioned how the warranty worked, the salesman explained that it was through a warranty...

Hello everyone, thank you for taking the time to read this post! Basically, I decided to order a Transporter T6.1 Sportline Black Edition Panel Van back in September 2021. I knew there would be a bit of a wait, but I confirmed my order via email ( since my nearest dealer is 100 miles away )...

been an active browser on this forum since the purchase of a 2019 T6 t32 Indium Grey DSG Kombi. Good spec with lots of add-ons including auxiliary and parking heaters, driver assist, side assist etc. Couldn’t overly see the point in these but wow how great are they? anyway my questions are...

I've recently had a pretty poor experience with a VW Van Centre and I would be interested in hearing what other people's reaction would be if the below had happened to your vehicle. What would you expect (if anything) for the van centre to put things right? I've not posted the name of the...

The van is in Listers Coventry. I posted in another thread about my flashing coil lights, vacuum air leak error code and ACC issues. I am able to leave my van in with them cos I have another car and I don’t need it for work etc. They can possibly fit it in quicker if they have a cancellation...
