What have you done to your VWCV today??

[Transporter]

Replaced rear springs on my T5 and found out that left rear shocker is again leaking oil. It was replaced by the dealer under the warranty at approximately 30,000km.

I used raised King Springs p/n KVRR-18. Difference in height at the back is 50mm - measured on fully loaded van.

Here is a pic of my van with the A6 mags, very happy with it. Toned down from the vaults which are now for sale. OEM is the go.

Got the Multivan windows tinted last weekend. Darker tint on the back, lighter on the front.

During the week the window wiper washer bottle emptied its contents and a quick look last night revealed the plastic clip that holds one of the hoses on had perished and broken. The motor housing has also perished badly and cracked, so I'll be taking the van in this morning to have it looked at (hopefully the extended warranty will cover this)

Turns out the horse had 2 problems. Someone has fitted a fuel pump and bent the arm on the sender arghhhh!!!!! so its empty still showing 1/4. Ah well raise the empty bar, sorted. Second one the classic No30 relay Ecu relay. Even tried my test relay but in this very hot weather even it wouldnt cut it, great for diagnostics but i think Jmac was pushing using it to drive all over Brisbane hehehe. Fit new one (not a Malaysian one, pukka German jobbie)
Been good since. Next stop for the horse is sign writing, just waiting to see if my new product will come to fruition before i do so
Cheers

Drained trans and filled with MTL. I put it in plenty others so gave her a treat, which was well earned. Next move for the big unit is some signage as my new product has came to fruition, gear should be here soon and some extra lighting in the rear. Considering an invertor too and another battery set up.

Do it mate. My old man had a pair of auxillary batteries and an inverter in the back of his Hiace when he was a mobile locksmith. Very handy. My mate has another option, he's a mobile mechanic, and uses a suitcase-style Honda generator.

New rotors and Remsa Pads fitted all round. Thanks to GSL and JMac for the parts and work. Nicely bedded in and the stopping power is noticeably increased. Oil & Filter service all for a great price. Alba European is a definite bonus for the VWWatercooled community.
