Hello All, Our 2016 T6 has an intermittent fault with the sliding door not opening. When it doesn't open, we are using the inside opener to get the door open. Unsure if this would be mechanical or electrical? The outside door handle has the same feeling if it opens or doesn't. Any ideas before...

Noticed this whilst washing the van the other day. It's a 21 plate and I've had it since new so I know it's not been in contact with anything. I can only think it's sticking out into the wind enough to get battered by stones from the front wheels. Has anyone else had this problem? I presume VW...

Hi all. Just recently the power latch on the sliding door isn’t pulling the door snug tight like it used to. It does close but no longer pulls the last 5mm or so. You can see the gap outside when it’s closed. I took the latch out and everything seems tight. Is there something else I can...

Finally gotten around to having a look at why the rear sliding doors on the 2016 Kombi I've recently brought aren't locking, at all, neither of them. Had a good search on the forum and my first thing I did was check the contacts, cleaned them with fibreglass pen but didn't think this was an...

So I've just seen that JK are doing a sliding door storage unit for £50 less than the Kiravans model. I'd be interested to know if anyone has fitted it yet, and if anyone knows what the difference is compared to the Kiravans model?

Has anyone attempted putting a speaker in the sliding door (T6)? There is a 6 pin contact strip which may enable a speaker to work when the door is shut but looking at the wiring diagrams all the pins are already in use even on a standard, non-motorised door. Is that correct? Perhaps an...
