Hi All
Firstly, I really want to thank all those who contribute to this forum - before buying our camper I read article after article until my eyes bled! Amazing how much info one can consume when investing 270,000kr in a dream (Denmark!). Now we have our beauty home - "2007 T5, manual 6 spd, 1 previous owner, 220,000km on the clock, used, but pretty well looked after. Always a bit of a plunge into the unknown when buying used, especially when one only has about 30 minutes to look the vehicle over after driving half the breadth of the country! But have had my eyes on market for over a year .... I love the deep blue colour.
Already I have used forum to change control panel language to English from German. Wonder if I can also change language on the dashboard?
Have read a bunch around the night heater as ours starts with the remote but only continues for about 5 minutes before shutting down without producing any heat - will recharge batteries with 230v hook up (when the previous owners sends the stick contact through). If that doesn't help I see that folks have changed the Earth Shunt - and in some instances had this done by VW dealer - i tried to download Martins "Earth Shunt Repair Guide" but for some reason the download is reported as "Not Available"??
Have already washed camper from top to toe. Next a good waxing, then onto the interior. I am self confessed eccentric (proud of it too) when it comes to machines and getting used stuff into tip top condition - learning to lighten up with two kids onboard - so will keep reading and hopefully able to throw a few useful tips in myself along the way.
Anyone know good VW autocamper dealer/forhandler here in Denmark, preferably på Sjælland?
Once again cheers - Shaun
