I am thinking about buying a used California around 2013 to 2015 what problems do I need to look out for, especially concerning the roof.
 
Best look at the Forum section


relating to elevating roof but the main issue is the fact that the aluminium roof suffers from corrosion.
 
If I remember correctly it is a 6 year body corrosion and paint warranty so generally if its less than that its should have been checked by VW.

Corrosion can often be under the seal or visible with the roof popped.
 
Make sure the roof (if hydraulic) works without stuttering or sagging directly.
Other things: look at the fabric of the tent if there are no cuts from the mechanism, corrosion as stated above, watermarks around the roof opening (front head lining, seats, ...)
