I replaced my front and rear wheel bearings last week in preparation for next weeks MOT. I used B&B Component parts off Ebay. Febi Bilstein bearings. Parts arrived next day. Had a bit more that normal play in rear and a quiet rumble from front. All good now. Those are the ones I have too.. and ...

The information on your fail certificate plus a conversation with the tester should answer your question.

There is by design a bit of play. The problem is a lot of MOT places do not know this. How much play is normal? I replaced my nearside driveshaft and bearing just over a year ago (using these bearings https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-CAMPER-TRANSPORTER-T25-REAR-WHEEL-BEARING-KIT-C238/190682982040) and...

Just checking the latest word on this.. I need a couple of leisure batteries for under the seats, ruined mine some time ago: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171258461691" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; are these still the best to buy, could be something better by now? I'm quite ...

My 1.9 wasserboxer used to have a small leak (a few drups here and there so didnt bother me too much), but on our way home this summer holiday it had a sudden loss of all oil. Leaking between the engine and the gearbox... In the end we got home on the back of a recovery truck.. From doing some inves...

Hi all, The waterpump in my van is showing signs of age.. sometimes it simply refuses to work... I've disconnected the old watertank underneath the van and now feed it from a plastic bladder in the cupboard where the pump is.. Sometimes lifting the waterbag helps.. sometimes it doesnt.. So I'm looki...

Hi All, I posted a couple of pics in the "What did you do to your T25 today" thread, though thought I would add a fuller post here! On to the wheels. I absolutely had to get the F*rd wheels off. I am a VW lover and they simply wouldn't do! From the start, I knew I wanted original steels a...

Thanks!

It's fixed! :D :D :D It seems the biggest issue was a worn fuel pump not functioning well when hot. This has been replaced along with the push rod.
