Re: 1.9dg watercooled Exhaust

My Mechanic is working on it now and has mentioned there is no hot air feed to the air box which helps on cold starts but my current exhaust does have one. Is this going to be a problem?

He's also encountered a snapped bolt on the head from the old exhaust that needs to be heli-coiled. Great  :|

Re: 1.9dg watercooled Exhaust

I had a reply from JP and they wanted £850 which seems very expensive.

My mechanic has said the exhausts from JP are supplied online also in bulk. But I'm not sure where they supply them to? Anyone know?

1.9dg watercooled Exhaust

Any recommendations on where to get a full kit from? I know JustKampers, VW Heritage, Brikwerks etc. But just wondering if anyone has a thought on the quality of these? VW speedshop has also been mentioned.

If you link them, you will be shorting out the strip.
Not good.

Only connect at one end.

Red to "+"
Brown to "-".

Re: T25 interior strip light replacement

It should be quite simple, as these led strips are usually 12 volt anyway. The strips are often adhesive backed, so easy enough to stick to your van. Wiring wise, they use generic aftermarket wire colours. Red for + 12 volts. Black for chassis or ground. This makes it easy as the van interior light...

T25 interior strip light replacement

Has anyone replaced their original strip lights with LED RGB strips? If so how did you do it?

Re: T25 internal lights and water pump. Zig unit

Just disconnected the leisure battery and yes you are right. Its what is powering the lights. However in order to get the pump working I need to have the immobiliser key in the main battery and switched on. Any idea why that is?Image

Re: T25 internal lights and water pump. Zig unit

So all the leisure things like lights and water pump only come on when I put it into car mode which I assume is using the vans battery and not the leisure battery? When I select van then nothing works.

I only inherited the camper on Tuesday so I'm very new to all this!

Re: T25 internal lights and water pump. Zig unit

The manual I have seems to state that you can select the van battery or the leisure battery in van or car mode to switch between the 2?

Re: T25 internal lights and water pump. Zig unit

I have the same problem. When I switch the CP400 into "van" mode no indication lights come on, water pump and lights don't work. However, when switching to "car" they all work - so presuming the van battery is all hooked up.  I have checked the leisure battery with a multimeter a...
