  • We had to take our home on wheels to the garage because shes poorly! Could we have just blown the engine in our campervan or could it be a egr valve and head gasket? But It's time to start sorting other the interiea of our campervan vw crafter campervan build. This means 4 way stretch carpet lining, van conversion ceiling with alot of hacks .
    Thanks for checking out our vanlife uk channel here on youtube where we self convert vans for full time van life in the UK.

    Carpeting is a pain in the rear airbag! Nice job its looking great, at 96k I'm guessing not a head gasket hopefully

    You're doing great.... Keep the Faith and Carry On! I am always looking forward to see what you are doing and how you solve the problems.
    Two Thumbs Up!! Your interior coverings are looking fantastic. Once you start adding other interior components, any little flaws or mistakes will mostly disappear.

    If it you’ve done such a good job and the van is looking very swanky. You should be proud of yourself 👍🏻
    If the egr is playing up on your van just get it blanked and deleted out the map. Never have the problem again 👍🏻

    Iya Mate, I’m currently 11 mins in and your talking about the gunk in the oil cap,
    We went through the exact same thing on our Transporter, got told it could be Charge Cooler/ EGR Cooler or Head Gasket, had pressure check done and no external leaks *apparently* anyhow after having all that changed our water pump exploded and turned out there was coolant all over undernesth of our van (old and fresh) that got changed and had no issues since, might be worth having the water pump checked too👍🏼
