Re: Leisure battery not charging
OK, then there is possibly a short somewhere.
Either in the wiring or in the controller unit itself

Re: Leisure battery not charging
I had luck repairing dead flat batteries with cheap pulse charger from aliexpress This kind: https://a.aliexpress.com/_EyWUMnf I would try to charge the battery first out of the van. If it is dead, then replace it. If it keeps blowing fuses even with a new battery, then the charger (or alternator) m...

Re: Best paint for respray?
IMO 2K industrial coatings are fine for non-metallic colours. They mix the laquer in the paint so it can be shiny. You can even choose stronger hardeners in specific brands.
I think those are closer to the original paints VW used in the 80's than todays water based automotive paints.

Re: More Fuel Pipe Issues.
I am not sure what is changed in the compounds, but todays rubbers are crap. They fall apart in a short time.
The german Cohline that Brickwerks sell seems to be better quality.
I had good luck with Gates too. Gates 3225 used on diesel. Bought it from my local autopart store

Re: quality parts manufacturers
Hi, is there any info on the quality of Graf/Metelli water pumps nowadays. They used to be OEM for italian brands. I am a bit low on funds and here it is less than half the price of other big names like INA or the KS/Pierburg that BW has in stock. From the pics I can find, the impeller is pressed sh...

Re: Intake/exhaust valve order
This pic is from the german factory repair manual.
E is intake (Einlassventil)
A is exhaust (Auslassventil)
So Exhaust, Intake, Exhaust, Intake, Intake Exhaust, Intake Exhaust is the order from the timing gear.

Re: Soft Brakes
The problem with re-sealing is that there will be rust pittings inside the cylinder which usually cannot be honed out.
As told, the aftermarket ones are fine. Especially the italian ones.
You can change it without bleeding the entire system, however worth to flush the wheel cylinders too.

Re: Rear window rubber for T3
The german Vewib made rubbers are good quality for the OE style all around.
AFAIK they are the suppliers for VW Classicparts.
Brickwerks has them.

Re: Left hand drive sliding door latch
I assume the tongues are the same, the springs and the housing is symmetrical to LHD.
