Vw tranny virgin…..

[Celticrsmith]

Probably not the best introduction title I’ve had on car forums…..but I’ve taken the plunge on a 68 plate converted t6.

Totally new to transporters having never owned one before, let alone drive one! Decided to take the plunge after various reasons and started looking about 6 weeks ago. What a mine field!!

Trading in my disco sport and have a list of previous cars from fiat puntos to golf r to jag f pace, now a T6.

Anyways, just been lurking lately sussing out what’s what but I’ll be sure to post up some pics of it once it’s home. Just gotta do the 1000+ round trip to get it

A bit like me….an Alfa Romeo nut that simply had to go VW6.1 !! Learning everyday and this forum is fantastic with knowledge everywhere! I still have my Alfa though!

I assume this policy extends to “that was there when we bought it” and “its always been that low”

I once used the ‘Halfords reduction bin’ for something that was very specific to a car I had at the time. I mean, what were the chances
