You know us so well! Pictures are an essential of our daily life! We are simple folk, well, I am...Hi Folks,
Just joined the forum after spending the last 15 months slowly converting my works van (a 2018 T6 T28 SWB) into a camper/day van.
If I had known about this place sooner I could probably have halved that time and saved myself an immeasurable amount of sleep, hair removal, bollok & arse scratching ! but its 85% there now and functional, just got a mountain of quality of life things to fix now.
If anyone is interested I might post some pics & specs.

I am sure that you will very soon get used to the DSG box. I use my happy flapies to preselect on twisty roads but the box does a certain amount of self learning up to a point. My only complaint, which might not be just down to the DSG is the lack of decent engine braking. Downchanging several gears at a time does help a bit but most modern vehicles seem to expect drivers to use the brakes more and more over the years. At slow speed one could use down hill assist if they had a suitable 4Motion but mine came without that. I am waiting to book mine in for that. Other than that they are very good just doing its own thing.Hi All just joined as i have a 18 plate T6 Danbury camper arriving in a week. So just looking for info etc on the van also first time with the DSG auto gearbox. Although road car is auto. I have a 16 plate LWB caddy van since new so use to the VW set up.
