    Shortly after having 40mm H & R spring fitted a rattling /knocking / cracking noise started to be noticeable. It seems to be coming from around the area of the sliding door rear catch (it could be lower down). On rough roads it is does not seem to be there at all. It is noticeable only on...

    Hi, Been a member for a few years now but have only recently got round to buying a van. As we all know its a bit of a minefield and after looking at a few ex-builders vans a year or two ago I figured as I intend to keep the van for a number of years that the dealers were worth a look. Picked a...

    Hi I love my standard 2011 T5 Caravelle 2.0d 140 SWB, but I would like it a bit lower - nothing drastic just to make it a better looking and hopefully firm up the ride a little. Any advice please? I was looking at VW Sportline springs, but now thinking H&R. They seem more popular for...

    I am selling my 1993 T4 to embark on another project. This is a nice conversion which has served me well. It is MOT'd until September.

    Evening all, I recently lowered my 58 plate 2.5 130 T5 T32 on Bilstein B14 coilovers and tried to fit a set of 19" Range Rover Sport alloys with 255/50/19 107Y tyres on them. The inconvenient problem was I need spacers (should have read up on this more). Anyway I have found a set of 15mm...
