No I didn’t get around to it, but still contemplating. Last year we needed new tyres and I had another go at looking for 16” but just couldn’t find the right wheelset. (Second hand)

New roof box got mounted though, pretty happy with it.

Damn, just had the all track in finally to see if we could fit the 16” wheels I had from the old car and it’s a no go. Needs more clearance and offset to work.

All fixed, got it done at my local Ultratune. $1145 fitted and took 3 days waiting for parts.

Coil light has gone out and engine light as well.
I’ve only been doing short trips to work of around 15km with a top speed of 80-90kmh for past 18 months.
I’m wondering if I just need to give...
Well it’s been 9 years and another 150000km but I’ve just had this same warning light and power loss again.
Now that I am well and truly out of warranty, has anyone got a recommendation for who to...
I’ll have to give it a test run, I don’t actually get to drive it that much as it’s mainly with my trade team. I slum around in the T5 most of the time.

That link says both are possible but must not exceed 75mm total lift ie:
50mm suspension lift plus 25mm tyre lift
Or
25mm suspension lift plus 50mm tyre lift
Can’t both be 50mm

Received a shock this morning when I spotted this significant sidewall slice.

Question on this,
The EGR valve in my 2010 T5.1 failed in 2013 with around 40k on it. Replaced under warranty
Have just had the warning light for this come up again at 180k and Local VW says...
Ours is a MY17 and warranty has expired as of Feb last year. before it expired we had the car in and checked over for anything that might have been amiss but it was only on around 60k at that stage....
Is it strange they didn't mention doing it at the 75k service if it's a scheduled item to replace?
Just been in a while ago for 75K Service, now at 78K we had the solid engine light come on. I was thinking the EGR system as thats what pops up in my T5.1 however we have been advised by local VW...

I don’t understand why they don’t have a courtesy vehicle ready for things like this? My T5 lost the mechatronic unit a few days before the 3yr warranty ran out. It was off the road for 25 days...
