What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

[Johnod17]

Had new EGR and cooler fitted yesterday on my T6 4 motion ,stripped and cleaned the old unit today .
It was blocked solid with carbon,at least now I have a spare unit.
First one in 127k not bad I suppose?

Mounted my chair making use of existing holes and some U clips and pipe clips, lashed to some lifting hooks just in case.

Rock and Roll bed chassis plate. Safety first.

After fitting TV in van a couple weeks back I realised I wouldn't of been able to close the curtains so cut a small slit to feed the TV bracket through and its turned out perfect.

Rear speakers.. fitted, wired in with new pins to the empty holes in the brown plug.

You do realise that buckets are re-usable

A well overdue wash ahead of a long European heavy road trip.View attachment 250185

Well I thought we took anything and everything but even we have never taken a wet and dry vacuum.

Somehow took me nearly a whole day to do one due to OCD paint mixing to get it the colour I wanted

After reading a thread about a Lumpy Idle - which I didn’t have before I read the thread but subsequently convinced myself that I actually might do - I popped a bottle of this Injector Cleaner in to cure the problem (yes, the problem that I created in my head).

Now the van seems to sound & feel way better than it ever has before! (Or am I imagining that too?)

And so another normal day on the T6 Forum comes to an end

I thought it was a VW catheter... I was about to say you are very dehydrated my friend!

Gently filed the end of my Fiamma legs so that i could try the awning closer to the van with the GRAFT suction feet.

I was getting really fed up with using cutlery from a tin so purchased a wooden cutlery box and drawer runners from Amazon. I removed the lid of the box and attached the runners to the underside of the worktop behind one of the drop down doors. No more hunting around for a spoon when I make a brew.

So after fitting the chassis plate for new rock and roll bed next week, installing rear speakers and relocating all the leisure electrics.. I still had time to get my home built birch plywood furniture fitted. Long day!!

Something I’ve wanted done for a while…

Retrofitted Genuine California PopTop supplied and fitted by VW-BI Design @ Chesterfield. Over the moon with the OEM finish, and attention to detail.

 

[RobFlynn]

Refitted my rear panels today but used riv nuts and Allen bolts because I found the plastic clips quite frustrating! I think it’s quite cool it also means I can fix things onto it. I’ve got some loops so I can bungee stuff to the wall or down to the bed (once it’s back in).

I’m quite new here so, hello!

How did you figure out where to put holes in panels to line up with robots or did you reuse existing holes?

After uprating the speakers and sound deadening the doors, today I started on the cabin. Dodo mat followed by insulating and sound proof foam liner

 

[Andysmee]

Noticed I had a lot of wind noise the other day on the motorway and found that our vanmax poptop wasn't closing behind the wind deflector.

Quick message with our converter and we fixed it today; loosened the bolts one side at a time and pulled the hinges backwards (the mounting frame is slotted)

 

[T6Norfolk]

Fitted my black smoke THQ sequential side repeaters on the T6. Quick and easy and I like them alot.

That was one of my first upgrades and (as I’ve said before) it’s still one of my favourites bang per buck and ease of upgrade etc. although after 4 years they are fading a little still fairing better than the other gloss black trim pieces
