servicing

Can anyone recommend a pair of ramps to suit 275mm tyres. I don't want the low rise versions & I've seen a set of plastic 3T high rise (200mm tall) ones on flea bay for £70. Open to suggestions though.. thanks

Hi guys. I brought a new LWB T6 in July 2019. It's done 30,000km. Dealer is virus closed. Brought oil and filter today. 2.0 diesel CAAC 103kw and 340nm. They sold me 7 litres of oil and a cartridge filter. Can you please give me instructions where oil filter is etc and other relevant details as...

Looking for recommendations for a garage to look after my business suffolk preferably Ipswich area. I would used the dealer but let's just say the service there has been a little poor from past experience. Much appreciate Charlie

We have our first service due in March, any recommendations (we are in Luton)

So booked my van in for a Cam belt in a weeks time as it has now covered 83k, what else would you recommend doing now it’s out of warranty and the VW muppets won’t be working on it.

Can anyone recommend any local indy in East Sussex for all VW authorised service needs. Has anyone any experience of this indy: Vasstechnik Unit 2 Potts Marsh Est, Eastbourne Rd, Westham, Pevensey, BN24 5NH Best Vehicle Repair & Maintenance Services In Westham | Vasstechnik Thanks

I’ve read Dellmassive’s excellent post on servicing but I’m still unsure what to do. I have a 68 plate Kombi which is for recreational use only (less than 10K Miles/year) and I understand VW no longer do service books. Do I rely on the vehicle to let me know when the service is due or should I...

My T6 is now over 3 years old but recently converted to a camper. It was serviced last August so I will have to think about getting it done at sometime. Is the VW VC service cost worth it as I could get the next 4 + mot for £799 + the dreaded VAT. Thats 2 interim and 2 full. I was thinking of a...

Have to big up these guys as VW specialists. They've looked after my MK4 golf for 10+ years and now look after the van too. They're on the VW network, know everything there is to know about all VW vehicles. They don't do MOT but can prep the car/van. If you need someone to service your van I...

Top of the list in pet hates. Those lazy guys who think that using half a can of aerosol grease pointed roughly in the direction of the hinge points is ‘lubricating’ the door hinge. Please stop it, arrrghhh. None of the grease does anything for the hinge and a week later it will be running down...

Having a friend change my front disc and pads next week and also brake fluid change as it is recommended by VW. Anyway is the standard Dot 4 correct as it shows it meets certain standards but does not show the VW standard shown on there own brake fluid? I have a look online and these both come...

Hi all after a bit of advice. My 2017 150hp T6 Campervan was serviced on 24/5/18 at 5k miles before I bought it . It now has 7.5k miles on it and the service indicator shows it needing an inspection service in 33 days. Am I interpreting that correctly ? I don’t want to invalidate the warranty...

Hi, I purchased my 2017 T6 3 months ago from VW in Abingdon. Noticed I didn’t get a service book, they’ve said you don’t get one anymore as the service info is kept digitally on a database... Does this sound correct?? Thanks guys

Hi, Just wondering what the going rate with vw is for an oil service / oil n filter change?

Looking for service information on what gets serviced and when... Have seen the post that explains when you should get it serviced (mine is on the flexible system but will be doing it annually) When I was looking into these vans the internet seemed to think the 4motion haldex should be done at...

My camper is due it's first MOT in a couple of weeks. What are peoples thoughts on using a VW approved garage rather than VW themselves to carry it out? I'm planning on keeping it for a few years but it will likely not do more than 2000 miles/year. It would be far easier (and cheaper I suspect)...

i am getting the warning come up that I need an interim service ie oil change. VW want to steal £174 + VAT. I can probably get it done cheaper locally but will that impact the warranty? Additionally they want it in all day. Why FFS? It’s a 1 hour job at most. Any local recommendations...

Hi, My 2 year old T6 is due an oil and inspection service and I was looking for recommendations in or around Milton Keynes. Ideally one which could offer me a courtesy vehicle (anything with wheels), whilst it was in for the work. Reviews for Brian Currie and Lancasters are a bit...
