My 2018 T6 rear tailgate suddenly unlatched and wouldn't open from outside or inside. So here's what I did as temp and then permanent fix.
Temp fix - on inside just above the latch in centre of tailgate is a rubber grommet. Remove to expose latch mechanism. You will see the latch bar. Pull this...
Hi
With everyone swapping to colour-coded bumpers maybe someone has one sat in the garage that they dont need, mine has a damaged corner :(
Let me know whats available (closer to the Midlands the better)
Thanks all
For a couple of months, my tailgate would unlatch itself - usually as I was at a standstill at traffic lights or waiting to turn. On one occasion I noticed in my wing mirror that the tailgate was fully open - thankfully nothing had fallen out.
Now the latch doesn't work at all. I have to use...
So my tailgate actuator was randomly activating with the van in open position, it eventually appeared as if the switch wasnt working as well. I think the actuator gave up the ghost as the actuator would not activate by handle, inner switch or when bridging the wires to the handle switch...
Apart from the obvious (VW dealer) where’s the best place to order a passenger side LED tail light (tailgate if they’re different) for a 2023 T6.1 and a bumper reflector, passenger side again.
Hoping to order online for delivery quickly.
Thanks
Good afternoon all,
I am posting this issue to try and get some clarity on the next steps with my tailgate and central locking.
Concerning a 2018 T6 Panel van in the throws of a conversion, For the past 4-6 months, the central locking has not been working, and the tailgate electronic switch...
Would like to have longer rear tailgate struts, I believe standard are 900nm x 710mm ish long. As van is lowered and carriers tools it sits low when opened. A client smashed into corner earlier which isn't good.
Are t5 straight swap or have I to go down Sgs route and get some made ?.
Thanks
Hi All,
I purchased VW Tiguan from a Main Dealer a couple of years ago.
Fast forward to today, last week the Electric Tailgate Button (the button to close the boot) stopped working. I sent the car to my local VW for inspection and they found a build up of water in the Tailgate which has cause...
I need a vin number for a t6 2018 would be ideal. Has to be a tailgate van, preferably with rear window heaters and wiper.
I know this may sound dodgy, but its not :) im using VW Erwin system to download wiring diagrams and repair manuals. Currently doing it for my van, using my vin number...
Hi, so my T6 camper tailgate glass was smashed during the recent storms in NE Scotland. Its a camper conversion with glass from Camper Glass, the rear screen was replaced on Thursday by a well known vehicle glass company having sourced glass from Camper Glass. I jumped in the van today to use...
Im looking for a complete set of t6 tailgate hinges and bolts. Also any other fixings van side i need to complete a conversion from barn doors.

Hi all, Has anyone removed / replaced the rear bumper reflectors on a T6.1?
I've looked underneath but has a tray cover so was wondering it there is a nack to getting them off?
Is is a case of just pulling away and snapping the tabs on them? I have replacements so not too fussed if destruction...
My number plate lights don’t work with the lights on.
When I open the tailgate, for the few seconds the latch is energised the number plate lights come on then go off.
Any thoughts or suggestions are very welcome
This has been a concern of mine for some time and rather than continue to accidentally hijack this thread I thought I'd start a new one.
The problem
The short summary is that I have an electric powered tailgate on my T6.1 and, as can be seen in my avatar, I also have a rear kitchen and rig...
Hello all
I possibly, maybe, could be having a T6.1 built for me around week 40 2023 (ish) that I ordered in Sep 2021
Due to wanting to add a couple of bits to it post-order (things I couldn't retrofit), I've 'lost' some other bits I originally ordered on it:-
electric tailgate
rear parking...
