VW T25 Sliding Door Catch Repair

[@restoreitbuilditfixit7163]

I hope this helps out anyone who comes across this problem on their VW T25. If you're having an issue with your campervan then drop me a line & I will try to find a fix for you.

Thanks for showing us your fix, just became a new owner of an 83 westfalia vanagon and the slider does not lock in the open position, your left side slider through me for one second but your accent explained it. There's a lot more wrong with the sliding door than that but at least it locks closed. Thank you.

Good video with helpful tips on those pesky differences between Philips bits and the others. Problem with my door is it used to pop open the first pothole now I cant get it to close properly at all. Ant videos on this problem ?

Hi, what was the latch called?

[@scotthammond4260]

Thanks for that. Is yours an Autohomes? Looks a lot like my Kamper. 😁

Thanks for the video! I have a broken latch on my T25 sliding door and can't find anyone to fix it. Feeling very stressed as I can't take children out because when I go around the corner the door slides open. It is a 1987 T25 transporter and it is my pride and joy, Could you help me? I am not far from York. ......Please???

Nice video but please remove that fibreglass from inside the door. It will retain moisture and rot your door out from the inside out. 👍

Thank you. I've already removed it, great minds think alike😀

Nice one, I've had my T25 for 11 years and still learning. I need to do loads of work on it this year, mostly welding and bodywork.

@@Cylow75 That's interesting...my original trade was a boilermaker (fabricator welder) I'm just videoing a mig welding set review & the cutting/fitting/modification of a T25 passenger swivel seat assembly, for use with an Audi seat..watch this space..
