We are all new to this but also just got a new 6.1. We didn’t think it had the driver profile but we found today a button on front dash with a car and a squiggly line. This gave us the options for driver profile. This might not help but just in case, I thought I’d mention this button. The...

I too may be lucky but I tend to make my own luck by gathering as much evidence as I can (photos) before taking in and my usual tactic is to speak with service manager/assistant or if lucky technician to discuss fault/demonstrate issue. Apart from the £50 diagnostic/software update for my...

Update: A T5 owing mate of mine just heard that a 2014 reg (20000 miles), went in for it's health check, issues were highlighted and the whole EGR system was replaced from suffix A to D, all under warranty..........some dealer in Sheffield apparently. This seesaw is driving me nuts.......no...

Gutted for you Tom but you made the right decision to reject and wait. You've now got me panicking that I haven't done the same. I know I haven't because I had a long conversation with the dealer about swivelling and not having the electric seats because they don't. But I'll be happier when I...

Thought I would update on my own statement above. Seems it was a correct assumption, I just received this formal letter from VW. In a nutshell fuel economy went down 10% and CO2 up 10% 204ps - 199ps. In reality it probably improved. The 4 motion adds 20 CO2,s This is the letter Dear ...

Not an uncommon problem. There was a software update to address it I believe. See here on the T6 Forum. https://www.t6forum.com/search/1327806/?q=High+oil+level&o=relevance

Thanks very much for this detailed outline. We have a DSG 4Motion Ocean 204 with diff lock. I’ve not yet had the need to use the diff lock. I have wondered however what I will do if/when it becomes necessary. Have I understood correctly that in a situation where diff lock will make a...

Good news and an update from me. Something you should be aware of is that the early Westfalia Kepler 6's imported in to UK, did not have a Passenger Airbag fitted. Evidently this was an oversight on the French manufacturer. This is not a deal breaker as after all, we have all probably driven...

By way of a minor update and because my mind wont let me rest on this, I received some further information on the T6 that Im considering V a New T6.1 As mentioned in post No1, the T6 199Bhp 4 Motion DSG has the following spec : Metalic Paint - Mojave Elec sliding door 18" Toluca Alloys Heated...

A bit more of an update for you all..... I took the van back to the garage and pointed out the faults. They think they can sort them out! Anyway, they lent me a brand new Cali 180 DSG with 40 miles on the clock. Very nice vehicle, so we continued our journey down to the Volksworld show and set...

And i got a reply from VWCC as well - see below: VW California Ocean 204 with dsg gearbox 2018 registered with 38,000 miles "As mentioned previously, Cambelts are considered wear-and-tear components and are not covered by warranty outside of the initial unlimited coverage for the first...

Lovely post @calibusje. Hope your daughter makes a swift recovery.

Hello everybody: a small update: as expected, we did not receive our ascot grey coast delivered by our summer holidays. The dealer kept the agreement and gave us 3 weeks free of charge a quasi new California (731 km at issue; just over a month old). It was a good test and I'm really looking...

Ron, our experience was similar top yours. I went through Alex at SMG who told us that it would take a long time and i asked him to send sent me an email confirming that it had been referred to VW which he kindly did. This set my mind at rest. I suggest that you ring VW Customer care. I did...

Hi there this is the best surprise I have ever herd of apart from my wife's surprise 40th I did last year which I had to keep quiet for over 6 months and I was the only one that knew of all the cool stuff in store .anyway never mind mine it's about you .your words really touched me in that life...

Bad luck, hope she recovers well. We spent a night at Ostend Lighthouse, next to another van of Raes, a Grand California. I guess they have to lend all their showroom models to customers, waiting for their new cali's!

If its factory built and registered as M1 (multi purpose it would be fine, but if its N1 (light commercial) as a lot of the conversions are then it would be subject to the lower speed limits for goods vehicles. All set out here

Hi Ken & welcome! We have a 4 month old Cali Beach. The two living area plug ins work in different ways. The 13amp ( 230v three pin socket) will only work when on EHU. The other should work all the time off the leisure battery. You can use this to power certain fridges or cool boxes when on the...

So saddened about hearing of the accident to your daughter. I do hope she recovers soon and fully and well. Bless her. Our little ones are so important, may all of you now be at peace after what must have been a harrowing event. Love, Jen xxxxx

Unless you need to use the van in Jan/Feb/Mar, perhaps wait until the T6.1 demo vehicles arrive at the dealers. You can then make an informed choice on whether a nearly new T6 or a brand new T6.1 is best for you. We have been looking a various "great deals" since July, some with 20% off list. I...

An Update! Well we hired an Ocean this weekend for a trip to see some friends in Warwick, we went and collected it from Mark Kamperhire. Very much recommended Mark, very friendly, easy to deal with and a great spec van. Ours was a 150 DSG with some nice extra's. Armed with information from...

Very nearly lost my rag with someone from VW customer services today as she utterly failed to give me any update on likely delivery date, despite having had a week of looking into it. Have requested the email address of the UK MD and Director of Customer Services, but I very much doubt they'll...

May ‘22 - had Bilstein B14 Komforts installed (Hunter aligned etc) Jan ‘23 - returned to installer to adjust UP as the rear had dropped noticeably since install. Aug ‘24 - same thing again - noticeable drop since last adjustment and noticeable Neg Camber as a result which ruins tyres...

Hi Suntoner, What are you waiting for? Just one thing though, VW quietly dropped the leather element in the Cali Alcantara seats some time ago. It's now faux leather i.e vinyl leatherette. I cancelled this option on our new Beach when I discovered this. I didn't see the point in paying all that...

Submitted by @Robert Green Dealer Review VW California Club Forum Just under a year ago I bought privately a 2010 California T5 SE TDI 180 (CFCA) DSG with 20k miles, a full service history and an AA examination with a clean bill of engine health. After collecting, and after about an hours...
