As an Englishman living here in Norway, I visit my mum every year...and ALSO take a trip to Brickwerks for any work doing. He's honest, cheap and also makes BBQ food when the weather is fine! I even drive around with 2 stickers on my number plates saying "Brickwerks". OK, he will NOT chang...

Thanks for your input Rikskringkastingen "This is international regulations, and should work the same way in the EU." So why is it that German, Dutch, Belgium and MANY English people I've had contact with....ALL say they have NO problem with 97 rated tyres on any T4s? Is it ONLY Norway tha...

VERY STRANGE....and that is why I want to "argue" with those "Gods"!!! The numbers make no sense...like they just picked a lottery ticket from a box for each vehicle! From the axle "numbers", it should be allowed to have different tyre ratings front and rear! But from T...

Can anyone tell me what it says in THEIR Vognkort? MY front axle is down as 1510 kg....should be 1480kg (from manual). Total weight is also wrong. Also, from the manual, IF the van is lowered, the max loading also goes down...? Looked at 5 vans today, 2 had 205/65-15 97W and one with 235/45-18 98Y ....

Only thing I have on MY side is...vognkort is WRONG!!!!!
Details about loading are for the VR6 engine....

Gonna fight this until the end....than I use someone else's wheels for a day!!!!!

THEY want TUV papers for everything...so I have them...and TUV papers say LI 97 is OK......

Now have TUV papers from Autec. (Felger) IN those papers... VW Bus 7DB (mine) 235/45R17 T97 So....TUV say 97 rated tyres are OK.... Must go back again and try to talk to the "gods".... Any comments?....WILL they accept the "TUV" papers? Rudeboy.....thanks for asking the question ...

Another Update; Just been to Biltilsynet....told me I had to go to "recognised" garage to have tracking and brake valve checked (with paperwork!!! ). VW want 3,300NOK!!!! (even though THEY accept that the letter I had from UK was "Godkjent"!) So, booked in there for Friday 10th S...

Sorry, in English... Just look here.... http://www.brickwerks.co.uk/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.browse&category_id=153&Itemid=6 He WILL post to Norway, and is also on this forum. I just had : "Stainless steel exhaust system - T4 [Twin exit Oval tailpipes]" fitted....

UPDATE..... Link to a UK site (some of you may know Brikwerks...great guy who runs the company)...LOTS of useful (and FREE) information. http://www.brick-yard.co.uk/forum/brake-adjuster-valve_topic56985.html Just scroll down to what "toomanykids" has to say...... Done what he said, but mov...

put it on the orginal springs then they cant say annything, and then put the lowering springs back on the car :) hehe Guess who left the "old" springs back in the UK?!?!?!?!? KW -40mm lowering kit (springs and shocks), fitted, and the geometry set up by laser was only 5,400Nok! De-cat S/S...

Hope you understand.My english is like your norwegian.... :oops: Sorry....YOUR English is much better than my Norsk. The tyres I bought were specified for a VW T4 Transporter....and are both bigger (17") and wider than the standard ones fitted. They were supplied for a T4 Transporter....as wer...

Takk for det (sorry, trying to learn Norsk). You'll get NorwEnglish from me for a while! So....IF I just go to the "test station" with papers saying the work was done....can they fix this problem? (I don't have any papers just now, but maybe I can get them sent). Also...what about the summ...

Here with Engelsk comment... All "Vans" for the "AA" (breakdown company in UK) had the "air bag suspension" fitted....anyone who buys one of these removes them ASAP!!!! They can be OK....but are not reliable, and make handling very bad. Yeah, adding the extra "damp...
