tow bar

We have a T6 and I'll be honest - It's a huge faff loading 4 bikes onto our Fiamma tailgate mounted bike carrier.... and then it takes the strength of 7 people to open the boot. I'm thinking of fitting a towbar and getting a Thule 927 tiltable bike carrier (we're keeping the T6 for ever :-) so...

Hi all, I have got a T6 lwb for work and started to fit things to help with day to day work. It has come with the 13pin tow bar. So I have made a led light with magnetic base to use as a work light and works excellent and just plugs into the towbar connected to the permanent 12v. I also made a...

Had this roof box for my previous donkey. As much as I like roof bars, they're not viable for the Panadonkia, so considered flogging the box. Especially as you'd need to tow a cherry picker to reach the soddin thing. However..... Plans are being drawn up for an continental alpine family road...

First time owner of a MY18 Kombi, absolutely loving it, but with all these things you don't know what you'll really need until you've went through a few years use. My first stumbling block is a tow bar. Note for next time, get one fitted pre delivery. In the meantime we're off to Europe in...

Westfalia detachable swan neck tow bar with or without electrics

Hi Chaps.. As per the title. Looking for a Detachable Tow Bar.. My van is lowered on B14's, as low as it will go. Only to pull my track car 350kg trailer and a 500kgs car. If I go for a detachable is the bar invisible? Thanks. Dave.

As of this morning I am a VW Kombi owner elect.. Deposit paid and van on order. Only issue is that dealer has said that VW are advising of long delays for factory fit removable tow bars which I specifically wanted. He has suggested to get around problem and avoid any unnecessary delays, to...

Whilst on a motorbike tour of Europe last year I noticed a lot of T6's with additional storage carried on a tow bar attachment. I'm also looking to add extra storage for longer trips without going as far as towing trailer. I came across this company whilst doing my research. Does anyone have...

Hi folks, I have the factory fit towbar on my T6 T32. Towed the caravan for the first time and wow is it close to the bumper ! The caravan has one of the anti sway hitches so is a bigger head than normal. Can you get a hitch ball thingy that extends further from the bumper ?

Iv just has my van converted and with to move the hook up connection. At moment it hangs below the sills mid side of van. This will cause probs with water when driving across country. Iv looked at various ideas and best I see is next to Toe Bar. Their is already hook up for trailer lights. Would...

Wondering if I can still open the doors on back of van after installing the Thule Velo space Toe Bar bike rack. The rack tilts back. Will I still be able open my rear doors when the rack is carrying a bike and cargo box ??

hi, I have installed trailer in 19 can gateway intallation list. Then need to code for the rear sensors. Gone into 10 park/steer assist and set bit01 to trailer hitch installed. When I click to do it I get a message saying coding rejected, error 33 security access required. Am I doing it wrong...

looking for a detachable towbar if anybody is removing one. Cheers Nick

Hi, I am specking my T6 and have opted for the towbar prep. I am a little confused as to exactly what VW provide here and wondered if anyone has specified this on a new build before and can clarify please? In addition to the actual mounting points for the towbar and coding, I am confused if...

would it be possible and cost effective for someone to remove and de wire the removable towbar from my wife’s t6 swb kombi and re install on my new lwb kombi, or buy a new kit for my new van? ?? Any help appreciated. Lee

I lived in Germany for a while, and this rack was (is) available for a number of vehicles. A friend fitted one to a Chrysler Voyager to carry his KTM Duke on. It seems that they are approved for up to 250kg when fitted to the Transporter, which is enough for my Honda Bros. Such a rack would also...

is fitting a tow bar a relatively easy task? The van is pretty much stripped already so I figured now would be a good time. As with everything I would like to save money and do it myself, I'm an electrical engineer but where I get tripped up is when I'm working with modules and confusing wiring...

I want to fit a bike rack (for 2 bikes) to my barn door T6 but want to go down the toe-bar clip on type. Having no toe-bar or bike rack knowledge do I have to get a particular type of toe-bar fitted such as a "swan neck" or does it not matter? Also any recommendations on bike rack to get. Any...

Hi I read that if there is factory towbar prep then there was a COde 1D7 in the service book and 1D0 if not. I dont have a service book as its all electronic now so how do I check?

sorry If this answered in past - I searched but couldn’t find thread. Have a detachable towbar and Thule easifold bike rack but boot won’t open so before I go down new options is there such a thing as loooong neck towbar that will push bike rack back 20cm and allow me to open boot with rack on...
