Hi all, Hope you can help/advise here. I recently upgraded the gas struts on my 1991 T4 (2.0 petrol version), installing the INSUPPA 1200N kit. The purpose of this, like most people, was to hold the tail gate up with a bike rack mounted on the back. Unfortunately after only 2 months the...

Hi all, struggling to find info on where to find spare parts for a genuine VW bike rack. One of the lower fixing brackets that clamps the rack to the back door lost a bolt on a trip. I just need the M6 bolt and the cylindrical washer (sure there a more official term for that). The clamp itself...

As above - does anyone have any experience doing this? Tips and tricks? Tutorial? Ideally even a YouTube video? I want to get it powder coated but worried that I start trying to take it apart I won't be able to put it back together. There is also the very high probability that I will fail in my...

Just managed to get my hands on a cheap VW California bike rack. Now want to have it powder coated black. I've read on here that it's a pain and needs to be taken apart entirely. Anyone know if there's anywhere in Bristol that could do this? Was thinking of asking MAD Workshop. Any other ideas?

Hey guys Treated myself to the expensive but very nice VW bike rack for the Transporter/Caravelle tailgate. But... I cannot for the life of me work out how to secure and lock the 4th bike?! I fear I'm being hugely thick. I have the removable arm, for securing it to the 2nd bike, but it has...

We want to fit a bike rack on the barn doors of our T5. To carry just 2 bikes. Don't have a towbar. Have read several negative comments on here about the Fiamma model scratching and or working loose. But these reviews have been at least a couple of years old. Just wondering/hoping that Fiamma...

Hello! We've just bought our first camper after many years of me planting the seed and many recent months looking. It's a T5 2013 with double barn doors - we were after a tailgate but this van ticked all the other boxes. We're really pleased with it and are now looking for a bike rack to...

Hi I have a Caravelle 57 plate with a sport line face lift and rear spoiler... I need a bike rack for it ideally for 4 bikes if possible. Any suggestions? thanks Tony

As the title. I have read it is a pain to do but I was hoping someone can recommend a company around Scun-thorpe that would Powercoat a Cali bike rack. Also if you know how much it would cost. Thanks

Just picked up my new-to-me T4 Caravelle. (The power! The quiet ride! The air-con! Oh, this is bliss after my old T4 800-not-all-that-Special.) Thing is, I want to carry 2 bikes regularly (4 bikes occasionally) on the tailgate. Saw a fantastic rack today but close inspection showed it had a...

Hi there, A quick question regarding replacement tailgate gas struts. I need some to hold up the tailgate of my T4 with bikes and a fiamma bike rack as at the moment its hard to even open it! Any idea where to get these and what pressure they should be for two bikes? Many thanks, James

Hi guys, I'm looking at getting a bike rack for the van, being bit of a tart I don't want something that's permanently on show (I've also got a rear spoiler so I can't use a Fiamma bike rack) I have however heard about the westfalia detachable tow bar with the Strada DL4 bike carrier. My...
