What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

[JDC]

2 cars and van all washed and found a leaky tailgate to go with my leaky passenger kombi window and a leaky roof bar. Hat trick of leaks. Thanks VW.

Did you notice much difference on the sportline going from the t32 arb to the h&r?

Yeah, noticeably less roll.

I have uprated Uprated anti-roll bars on all my cars, and have done for years. Definitely Definitely one of the best upgrades you can do as it has minimal compromises day to day, compared to running very stiff suspension.

Added these grille trims and black badge. The upper trims were a bar steward to get off for something that just clips in!

Looking to add these did you remove the grill and bumper or do it all from the front any help would be welcome removing chrome trims that are on cheers

 

[Albel]

I’ve fitted the upper grille inserts and love them

Quick question did you need to remove the bumper or can they be taken off from the front in place and new ones added pls

@Pewt are those Akebono Audi calipers if so what size disc and whose caliper brackets did you use to get them to fit?

@Smr72 They are S4 calipers with standard T32 discs and caddy brackets............still need tweeking yet to fit right.

I’ve done a mini detail and also creamed the seats, pardon the pun .

Gave her a bath loving the snow foam gun had to wash the wife's car too as she was grumbling

 

[Calluma]

Not exactly the van but getting the wife to clean the car as a test then she can do the van next week

Installed Alpine spc-106t61speakers and tweaters.
80% Finished sound deadening the passenger door.
Hardest part of the job, getting the door card back on.

 

[Higgidav]

First wash this year.

Opened the tailgate with my CX bike on. Just about clears the solar panels. Not sure I’d do this often, or with more than one bike, but good to know it’s possible.

Removed our Kiravans sliding door store to start investigating an intermittent door lock fault.
Managed to do it without destroying the fixings too

Pete

Out of interest what is the issue please?

Could twist your bars on the headset so there's no contact against your roof/solar panel

The sliding door was not unlocking on the fob. Seems to be a “common“ issue.

I have the same issue, I took the door card off last week but couldn’t see any issues. I put it down to ‘double locking’ where the door would unlock on the second press of the lock button.
Did you sort it?

I think so. The issue appears to be lubrication within the door lock unit.

If she was that bothered, she could have cleaned her car herself (and then the van). I'm very brave when it's not my Mrs that's involved.
