Looking for a workshop for minor Cali fixes

[James Gill]

Hi, I have a 4 year old Cali 204 Auto 4motion. I love it...but has a few things wrong: Sliding door scraps rear wheel arch paint, bench runners bent, loop handles come off, front swivel seats are as squeaky as hell. I live on south coast in New Forest and local conversion places not interested. Do you know a good place to take it too please? Ideally an Indie who has experience in the VW California? Thx so much for your help

I very much doubt if you will find an independent VW specialist for the Camping side of things. The basic Transporter Yes, but anything else, Unlikely.
Front seat swivels - Silicon spray on the swivel plate.
Seat runners bent, are you sure? The aluminium wheel runners on top are replaceable, the rails are very solid so if they are bent then considerable force has been used, as in a crash.
Loop/Grab handles just bolt on, easily replaced.
Sliding door, presumably electric, a known problem. An Indy might be able to fix.
