- For owners of the Volkswagen Transporter T5. This video explains how to remove the rear interior heater and aircon air conditioning unit. Also known as the HVAC unit. It is a step by step guide to removal. I am neither a professional mechanic, nor film-maker, so don't expect perfection. However, I hope it will help my fellow T5 owners in the community to understand what is involved in this task.
Because children do not own cars or vans this video is classed as not for kids.
Great video! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks mate! I'm trying to figure out how can I install AC in the back of the van (mine has only heater). Very useful your video, looks like I can do with minor investments (handwork does not count, I'll pay myself in cold beer) 🙂
Mine doesn’t seem to have ac either but I want to take it out, but the pipes that go to the engine are not connected to anything 😂
Nice one Chris... I'm just about to take mine out... I'm staggered that with all that pipework you removed that I don't have any leaks on my 18 year old T5. I had issues with my aircon pump a few years ago and they offered to remove the divert junction for the rear hvac... I said nahhh, I'm alright.... Kicking myself now😂
Brilliantly video Chris. Just the exact guide I was looking for.
Brilliant, just what I needed to see. 👏🏻
What did you do with the hvac controls in the ceiling and the on/off button in the dashboard which I assume fires up the Webasto
Mazinger!! Thats what i was looking for
Perfect, many, many thanks for info..
Fantastic video!
Great video this just got me out of a right hole where the tyre had rubbed through the pipes in the arch showed the aa guy this video and got me back on the road by looping out the coolant pipes until I can fix the hoses at the back and raise the van up a bit
Glad that it was useful to you. If you have a water leak at the back, the "loop it at the coolant heater" is far and away the best way to isolate the rear unit.
Glad you got rolling again
Hi mate I have T32 9 seater 2018. Rear side air conditioner blowing hot air but from front proper cooling. Can you advise please what to look at thanks
Brilliant video! Used this to remove the unit from my 2007 T5 shuttle. Do you know how much gas they had to put back in once the unit was removed? Usually its about 900grams or so i think
i managed to undo the T40 spline bolts and loosen both 10mm retaining nuts without fully removing the crinkly panel and moving the silencer...it was very hard, but not impossible
Hi - currently trying to do this right now (avoiding removing the heat shield and dropping exhaust) - any tips? Was it a case of reaching in to find the nuts?
Great video thanks. Im hoping T6 is the same. No issues with wiring simply unplugged? It doesnt need coding or create faults with front heater operation etc?
Hello, my van has this webasto system but I don't know how it works. There are no controls inside the car. I turned my t5 into a campervan and I would like to know if I can use some control to make it warm during the night with this system?
How easy is it to blank the pipes off as the system is leaking gas through the rear where the HVAC was disconnected even when the black shut off halves are closed - thx for your help in advance
Great video very informative!
What did you do with the wiring just tucked it away?
Thanks
Ash
My aircon doesn't blow warm aircon at all
