What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

Found my solar panel isn't as well fixed to the roof as I thought it was :cry:. Bought some sika 252, sanded down the vinyl a bit and squeezed some sika in, hopefully that sorts it, otherwise I think I am going to have to take it all off and start again and maybe choose a different sealant. Or get someone to fit it for me!!!

300 mile round trip to get adaptive cruise control retrofitted.

So, so much nicer on the way home! Not even 1 month without it was too long! No having to constantly adjust/turn off/turn on the std cruise control when coming up to slower traffic on the motorway with no rooms to pull out. Isn't quite as advanced as my previous car but I knew that, it's still a massive improvement.
Is this screen colour? Think mine is only black and white
 
I wasn’t planning on doing footwells or floor plan as the shuttle is pretty quiet already with the Oem carpet but hey you know how it goes. Tomorrow reinstall it all then do the back ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You‘re lucky you caught it in time. Sometimes the polishes / paint treatments take some extra work and serious solvents to remove.

@TallPaul_S Who retrofitted this for you?

Do you have a T6 or 6.1 and does this retrofit give you the speed limiter function?
I had ACC on my previous Tiguan and didn't like it but if it gave me the speed limiter function I would more than likely have it fitted.
We've got speed limiters on our trucks at work and they're great, just set the speed and keep the pedal to the floor.
