    Side door rust spot.

    I was cleaning the van over the weekend and noticed a spot of rust on the passenger side door near the rear wheel. I noticed it a while back but it looks worse now. It's a 16plate so doubt it's under corrosion warranty. Is this another VW issue that VW know about that VW pretends to not know...

    Another sliding door middle hinge rubbing…

    Hi. Just noticed this on our 2018 T6. The bracket is to low so its just catching the paint work underneath. When the doors closed, the door lines up fine with the body so it doesn’t appear to have dropped. We’ve only had it since the beginning of March and I’m not sure if it’s been like that...
