Hi all, I bought a used T6, the log book states its a T30, with 9 seats. But in reality, it only has 8 seats and with a gross weight of 3200 KG. Should have get this changed to a T32 with 8 seats or not bother? I believe it is London Congestion charge exempt if it has 9 seats, is that...

Hi all - I've been advised by my accountant that I can get a T6 kombi as long as the payload is over 1000kg after he read up about the T32. We are trying to find the payload for a T30 kombi; does anyone know where it can be found? I've even asked my local dealer who has only given me the panel...

I’ve got my eye on some wheels that are load rated at 815kg. This is on a t28 swb conversion. I know they would be ok for standard van but should I be adjusting for the conversion? If so does anyone have a ballpark on what a fairly standard conversion might add? Thanks

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...

I thought I would share my experience with this bit of kit. I hope this is in the right section. I bought the Reich Caravan Weight Control 1000kg from campervanstuff.com a little while ago and finally got round to using it. It was £167. I felt like I wanted to know the weight of my van and had...

Since I bought my van I believed it was a T30 It was advertised as a T30 And the badge on the back is T30 On the dvla website mot checker it says axel weight is 3200kg and vehicle type N1 Any help would be great as planning to buy some Black Friday suspension/ wheel upgrades

My eating plate seems to be blank. But my suspension looks like this: Do I have a T28/T30 or T32?

Any legal peeps on here? I bought my T6 Kombi Edition SWB T32...but apparently it's a T30 (hilarious). All over my purchase paperwork and service documation it states T32. I thought I'd bought a T32...I only found this out because I've put it up for sale on here and someone told me they didn't...

Hi all, I've just taken on a new VW transporter kombi. On the paperwork it says its t32 but when trying to get accessories, websites are only intrested in it being T5 or T6. Can anyone explain this to me please?

See all the folk saying ye don't need a T32 and that a T28 is perfectly fine, even with a conversion! We put ours onto a weighbridge yesterday on our way home from a week away. Gross weight came in at 3,180! We've got a LWB with a full conversion by Exploria (Reimo roof and VW Cali bed), and...

Hi all. A friend of mine has just bought a t6.1 camper. He’s having coilovers fitted but as he doesn’t have to v5 yet l. Is there any way to find out if it’s a t28/30 or 32 TIA

Please could somebody explain what this means please - I’m trying to find out what the maximum weight of a caravan I can pull with my T6 4motion Kombi. Iv been told this is what I need to see to find out. Unfortunately it means nothing to me.... the Caravans i have been looking at vary between...

Does anyone know if the shuttle is a T32 ?

I get that a T28 can gave a gross weight of 2.8 tonnes, but is that simply the specified weight, or the legal weight? If I load it to 3 tonnes, am I breaking the law or just risking breaking my suspension? I currently have a T28 T5.1 (why are they both 'T' numbers??) and sometimes I'm sure...

Hi All, What's the best option out of T32 & T30 for a general day van ? Understand that the T32 has a higher load capacity but is it overkill for what I need as it will never be fully loaded. Would the ride be too harsh ? Regards

Big day for Bryan our camper tomorrow. He's due to be weighed and I'm slightly nervious with him being a T28 and a fully loaded camper. I over looked this at the start as always thought it would be more than enough. No roof just yet so all should be fine for now but hoping with only two of us...

Not sure if anybody can clear this question up please? T6 Caravelle executive 204dsg It shows under the bonnet gross weight 3080 same as V5 but when I phone VW they tell me it's a t32 because it's got the larger suspension arms 55mm not 50mm on build sheet So is it a legal requirement to have...

Hi All I am a total newb but I have my eye on a 102ps T28 SWB and wondered if this would be adequate for a conversion that has a full width rib bed, micro pod (sink/hob/fridge) and a pop top? It’s me, my missus and 2 year old too. I could make our border terrier walk.

I’ve found a lovely T6 Transporter I’m looking to buy with a view to converting to a full camper. It’s a T28 so I wanted to check some opinion on the unladen weights. I figure that the unladen weight of a Cali Ocean is 2,518 stated with 90% fuel load and a 75kg driver. That weight would...

I'm asking on behalf of a colleague who has just bought a T32 to convert. As we all know limited selection of wheels etc. We got to discussing down plating which I'm sure I read briefly on here somewhere. Had a look on the following, which looks straight forward enough: - Specialist tests for...
