    Lowering springs

    Did you ever get the van lowered? I was thinking of doing it but my rear is air suspension. I've seen the adaptor fittings somewhere before that once installed lower the air suspension and I just need springs for the front.

    Vito W639 towing issue

    Interesting to read this as I have a 2013 viano 2.2 diesel manual and I've always thought it seems to struggle to tow my caravan. Did appear to be an intermittent thing where I thought the caravan was slowing the van. Coild be driving along no probs then a little hill comes along and feels like...

    Stereo replacement for Vito 2016

    Just wondering if you ever bought a replacement head unit. I have a 2013 viano so looks like the one you originally were looking at would fit, been thinking of replacing mine for a new one so I can bluetooth my phone/Spotify as the original disappointingly doesn't do it.

    Led sidelights error message

    Yep Canbus safe leds. The place specialises in led lighting and has been around for a while so I don't doubt his advice on them. Bit disappointed they put the code up and wouldve thought something would be available which doesn't see the lamps as being wrong but, I've spoken to the guy and...

    Just been motd last week so thats 👌. Still got the old lamps if I need to swap out for next mot. Is it a failure if it has the error on the display but they work OK?

    Led sidelights error message

    Thats right Pete, I havent even bothered to ask him yet tbh. When I bought them he did say its a bit of a hit or miss as he has known them be ok. Not ebay cheapie so would be the most likely to work without fault. Didn't know if the error could be cancelled if I had a code reader or not? Light...

    Led sidelights error message

    He told me he has known that some vehicles are OK and some have been known to bring the warning on the display which mine has unfortunatley. He did say that they were the best ones to try and most likely if any leds are to work without error.... but was a chance whether they brought the message...

    Led sidelights error message

    Bought a pair of led sidelights from led specialist supplier (not ebay rubbish) supposedly the strongest and most likely to be error free. Was told that when I bought them that vito/sprinters don't like led sidelights and may or may not bring in the error on the dash..... Well it has, looks so...

    Vito/viano mandatory software recall....

    Own a 2013 2.2cdi viano, mid 40mpg on a steady run....Just received the mandatory recall letter.... read a few posts from last year, vehicles ending up running worse with lower mpg following this "mandatory" recall.... Won't be taking mine in after what I've read! What is the incentive for the...

    Another tyre thread!

    Ah c63 didn't see the car in the original post, tyres are decent for the price and for a normal car worth considering? Maybe Not a c63 😬

    Another tyre thread!

    I must admit was very sceptical when I first read about these as they were cheap but must admit have been very suprised with them. Put these on my viano for the summer, going back to my snow tyres next month. I have ps4's on my focus rs but these would be worth a try if your not going on a...
