Picked up Sid, my new and first Camper last Tuesday and really excited to get out and have some fun in it. Mechanically it seems sound, 125k and an Reimo conversion with rear galley kitchen, captain seats and sliding rear seats which link to the font seats to make a double bed. Drove it back...

Hi, all! I have again scoured through the forum with no avail.. Long story short; I purchased a high mile hero last month (2004 T5 1.9TDI) and have been fixing all the little niggles. About 4 years ago on the MOT history it had 650k on it and has done about 40k a year since (or so I've been...

T4 2.5 TDI ACV returned from having some work on fuel pump. Timed & working fine now. The battery was dead for a while and replaced (800A 95Ah). Problem: The speedo is reading zero at all speeds and the tachometer is not counting up. All other dials & displays are fine. Mechanic can't remember...

Hi all, I have a '01 1.9td ABL T4 with no modifications, sometimes when I'm stationary and running at idle, the speedo jumps around between 0 and 20mph. I've mainly noticed it when I have had the lights on, not actually spotted it when the lights are off but it might be because it's less...

I have a Bilbos T4 1.9 diesel 51 registered camper. The speedo and mile recorder has stopped working. It was put in to a local independent VW specialist garage who thought it could be at the gearbox end (they tried changing a part but no joy). They seemed to think therefore it was at the...

I know it's a long shot but I've just got hold of a set of blue dials speedo unit jobbie. All I need now is a non 2.5 tdi loom and facia surround to finish it off so I can upgrade from my old 2.4d dials. Cheers Matt T:

Hi there! I'm wondering if you could change the T5 speedometer to some else? Searching for a bit updated model, I guess the T5.1 speedo won't work on T5? Does someone know if there's some VW/Audi speedos which would fit for T5?

Hi, So i just bit the bullet and forked out 2.5k on a refurb for my auto box and the mechanic tells me all the dash clocks have died (was ok before). He says they checked all of their work and had another mechanic look and the connections and gearbox sensor look to be ok. Its a '99 2.5TDI...

Hi I've think I've finally confirmed that the reason my speedo is not working on my 92 T4 (petrol) is that the pinion/skew gear for the speedometer drive has failed. I've got a new one, but having spent all afternoon lying on my back using feel to try and figure out how to get to it, I've...

Hi, I have a VW Transporter 2.5 LWB, 2008 I just bought the Van (private) I only had it two hours and an engine light came on, then a ABS as well as the red warding light. A day later and the speedo stopped working as well at the mileage guage. I have brought the van to a auto electrician...

Hey guys I recently searched the forum for dead speedo, got my instrument cluster out and went for it. Wondering if I did enough though just reheating/reflowing the existing solder! Basically, put it all back together and its still not working. No worse, but no change either! The speedo just...

Hi Guys, I went to replace my speedo sender on my R reg 2.4D AJA manual and the spindle has snapped off in the pinion.:bhd I tried using a wire coat hanger with a dab of superglue on the end to get it out but no joy... Can anyone give me some advice on how to get it out?:confused: Can I...

Hello all! I am going to put a set of 20" Rims onto my new T5 and wanted to find out what others' experiences were from doing the same. Let me explain... My van is a 174, so has a current tyre size of 215/65 R16. That gives a rolling radius of 342.95mm and a circumferance of 2154.82mm. I...
