handbrake

I took out the drivers seat in my T6 today to cut away the bulkhead retaining lip. Removed handbrake assembly from the seat base and unclipped the cable under the seat. After putting it all back the handbrake light is permanently on whether or not the handbrake is applied. Anybody had similar...

I need to replace my handbrake cable. The thread on the end of the cable where it adjust on the actual lever has been stripped as such I need to replace the entire cable. The cable exits through the floor covering, through to the underside of the van. Any idea please guys? Much appreciated Jay

Hi All, I haven't yet looked at the handbrake lever setup on my (new-to-me) 2019 T6 DSG - I thought it best to see if anyone has any advice first-off. So, has anyone any experience or heard if this is practical or reasonably possible? At its most basic could a torsion bar through suitable...

I have an issue with my handbrake. I've searched and can't find anything on the forum, only similar thing I can find is on the T4 forum. We use our camper every other weekend. Last weekend but one, the handbrake warning light started coming on after it was used (e.g. after pulling away from a...

I've lowered the handbrake to accommodate swivel bases on both front seats. In the process I did a butcher's job on the cover and now it's time to tidy it up. Does anyone know where I can find a new cover for a lowered handbrake?

Fitting RIB offset swivels and want to keep the seats as low as possible so I am modifying the handbrake bracket so that I don’t have to fit the spacers that came with the RIB swivels. No problem drilling out the original spotwelds and grinding off the short weld on the back corner of the...

Hi all, I have a T28 LWB on a '66 plate. Last MOT warned of uneven pad wear and worn discs on the rear, so I bought the cheapest brake wind back tool on Amazon some new Discs and Pads from GSF and dived on in. Everything changed ok, no problem there. The inner pads that came off were very worn...

When my van has sat all night (or all day), it makes a kind of mechanical noise from the front, like something is releasing. Like the sound a car makes from the rear when a handbrake stick for a moment, but this is from the front Its got a DSG gearbox ... does it grip the front brakes when its...

Hi all any ideas why my button on my hand brake is stuck in . Even when released.

I am trying to remove the plastic trim around the hand brake. I have watched the Kiravans video on youtube and he show push a button and slide the trim forward. It looks very easy, however I cant manage it. I've looked under and cant work out how the button he presses works. Am I missing...

Just fitted a handbrake lowing kit and I am now after a new gaiter to cover the mess. Anyone anybody? :)

Does anyone have any experience of changing the handbrake into an electric handbrake operable via a button on the dash? Thank you
