Update: brought the Cali today to the dealer, they emptied the DSG oil and checked the amount: there were 200ml missing. So they've refilled it with the correct amount. I've tested it extensively, about 40mi/65Km to make sure the oil was warm, and drove it in all those situation were it wasn't...

will do....think there will be a few 180 dsg 4motions owners interested in this...this spec could do with a little help to maximise its full potential....will be fitting it later this week ..and experimenting with the settings. I also got this to help with the MPG....though it might not be a...

Sounds a bit of a get out excuse as it is possible to see/check the DSG oil Temp for refil purposes. Fill level check isn't by how much came out and needs to go back in unless a quick job done avoiding the temp check. Hopefully done correctly this time.

Assuming: factory Five year extension will have ended in 2022? All in warranty: edit: scheduled additional maintenance such as DSG oil change, cam belt etc, are not required to be carried out by VW Franchise dealer, however the Garage who carry out the scheduled additional maintenance work...

Just to follow up my original post. 5 years old and still loving Bertie as daily driver after 46,000 miles although mpg down to 35 after VW software update, or my right foot is getting heavier!!! Also treated Bertie to a companion, Ned

I tolerated it as a quirk but was far more concerned about the shock to the next owner when their new joy won't move on starting. After talking to Tom then going to VW trying to explain what I wanted and why I did find them rather hard work. They even asked to have the van for a day or two! In...

Hi california I do not think that customer services are correct. We are waiting for a 150DSG which is currently at the dealer but cannot be registered. I must agree with another comment about the time it takes for VW to provide correct information. This story originally broke in an article in...

Update on my California. Ordered early March. Built week 22. Arrived at the dealers this week. Pick up next week. 150 DSG. Ocean. Oryx White. Minimal options. Front and rear parking sensors, tinted glass, discover media navigation plus and wifi, extra seat second row, bike rack to tailgate and...

T6 ordered today, 204 DSG Ocean in Metallic, agreed to place the order and agreed that I can change / add to the spec when a full options list is available, Agreed a Discount of the Base Van and the same discount off the extras (pretty much the same deal as I was offered on a T5 in May this...

Hi Cali kid, there is a known issue with DM Touch screen failure, it applies to certain suffix models. I posted in another thread to highlight the issue. I had this from a com I have used several times previously & trust for no nonsense advice: “re faulty screen: we are aware of a fault with...

Thanks for posting this always interesting to compare. So we have owned a 2010 SE since 2018 and have had very similar costs under the maintenance/MOT line of your spreadsheet. On balance you are probably doing a little better as we have also had to replace washer pump, driver side mirror motor...

I'd like to share and update again on this topic. I went yesterday to get my Cali weighted, free service for ADAC (=german AA) members. Unfortunately they wouldn't give me the axle values, just the total weight. 2760Kg including some items in the kitchen and boot that I have all weighted...

I've also had similar issues with reversing on any form of slope. My van goes in for routine service and inspection service on Monday, and I have alerted them to the potential issue. I'll wait to see if they find anything or adjust anything. Having done a lot of reading on this matter in the...

Full update report required please.

I agree for software/warranty reasons it would not be easy to "opt out" We, like others in this thread, have vans sitting at the dealers and I would suggest that once VW have a "fix" then we will have to accept them with the update. What concerns us is that if the "fix" affects the performance...

I have had VB Air suspension fitted for about 6 months. Like BJG I have 4M and DSG. In the lowered road setting the damping in the front is harsh on some of the Wiltshire roads but I have experienced a good ride when at standard height - much better than the original coils. I don’t have need for...

Hi Dave, I missed out - but in a much more spectacular way :( I ordered 8th Oct 2015. I should have collected mine on the 1st of March too, but the non-swivelling comfort seats put a hold on that one. Re-ordered 6th or 7th of January. The last update I got was June. With all these further...

and just to clarify what is running in VWBus T4/5+ magazine..the new one just out #28 basically has a statement from the club outlining the facts and story so far and a reply from VW which essentially addresses front panel probs and what is being done / what to do. (basically same VW response at...

Hi Shawn, I had the drivability update done just last Monday. Paul was the techie that carried out the work. I asked about the 6.1 dsg at the time. Apparently the gearbox s/w is better than that of the T6 but is still lacking. A software upgrade to the 6.1 will still improve further and make a...

The above has been my exact experience and “normal” for my use apart from item 3 which will depend on traffic conditions and driving style when reduction in vehicle performance during regen may or may not be noticeable by the driver. Unfortunately it all came together at a time of changed...

Hi all I have a strange question to ask and I'm hoping someone can put me out of my misery.. so we took delivery of our new California 6.1 (150 DSG) Thursday night and its awesome.. so awesome in fact and better than I thought or imagined.. However initially when fiddling with the...

Welcome and a nice change; 8 years difference. We are coming from a 1991 T4 Westfalia California (78 hp, manual and no air conditioning) to a 2022 T6.1 Coast (150 hp, DSG and 3zone air con). Mega update while driving, but the atmosphere inside remains the same and that is why our change is a...

I replied to your thread post edit: the original thread not the subsequent one, I even asked you for an update on the original thread, maybe that’s why no one responded to the second thread as it had already been covered by you in the OP thread ? Edit: so you don’t feel neglected, I have...

Could you post some pics on the forum? Never seen the second row and i will need it too. Many many thsnks

Do you think they have carried out an “update”? Might be worth a thread on it’s own if you think they are detuning our vans?
