We list both crafter and sprinter in the title as they are one and the same vehicle shell and many of the parts we use fit both types of the van

How to fix fault code P261A on a vw Crafter by replacing auxiliary water pump B and aux heater pump
Très bonne vidéo merci
You don’t need to reward us guys, we done nothing other than watched your very helpful uploads and thus saved a bloody fortune on garage diagnostics by people that only care about the £££. If I meet you at one of these shows then you sir are getting rewarded and I won’t take no thanks for an answer 👍
Cheers pal😁👍
So pleased for you to have it fixed. Taking the time to film it as well is a credit to you. Well done. Shame I have a relay else all of these would have been super useful reference videos.
Thank you😁👍
Well done Sam, you rock ! You deserve a good beer under the sun in a nice location :) Hugs xxx
Thank you 😁👍
Great job and good you got it done and down to a rather wet and muddy show. I came over to say hello and the van looked and sounded great. Cheers Phil
Phil
are you the guy with the converted MAN?
Well done that’s great . You have done some work on it you deserve trouble free miles from here on great job
Fingers crossed 🤞 we are back on track
These vids will save a lot of none technical folk a lot of pain mate well done : think there’s a vlog in documenting the process parts numbers ect . Been a great help to me so if I see you I will defo be getting you a beer :
Glad the vlog has been of help 😁👍
Same pump that went on mine last year on the way to big picnic I kept clearing the code till it stopped coming on to get there and then it did the same on the way home 😂 easy enough job to do great work mate 👍🏻
I didn't want to risk it failing on a big journey as it cools the EGR I didn't want a blown head gaskets again pal
Dashboard says you can now enjoy it, nice one! 👌
Cheers mate we are 😁👍
Great vid Sam looks well fiddly in there for your big hands take care
Cheer mate, the camera makes it more difficult too
thanks for another informative video. hope the van is running well now. great chatting to you at the Overland Show and thank you for the stickers.👍👍👍👍
The van is running great thank you
I enjoy the show, but went home early on Sunday I wasn't feeling the best to be honest
Where is it your from Stephen
@@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife sorry you weren't feeling good, hope your feeling better now.
I'm from the east coast, north Yorkshire at Saltburn, not far from Whitby
@@stephenbulmer7148 I remember you now nice meeting you pal
Computer says yes! Never beaten... Been some job that! Well done mate go and enjoy a good few cold ones 🍻
I am currently enjoying the fault free dash 😁👍
Great job Sam and it was so nice to see you at the Overland show even though it was a bit of a mud bath. Thanks for the stickers they will take pride and place on the back of the van. Keep safe my friend and hopefully catch up soon. VAN LIFE FEST next in a couple of weeks 🚍
Yeh it was muddy I dipped out on Sunday, I didn't feel too good, and the 5-hour drive home was free and easy
Where are you from again David
@@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife Ambleside Sam
@David Lambert Hello pal 😁👍
I'm awful with names sorry
that's why I ask so many questions when I meet people
some of the info does stick
I came looking for your van on Saturday but I think I was in the wrong field when I've watch the drone footage back
Great stuff Sam. Bet you had everything crossed you could. 😂 hope you had a good weekend and a trouble free summer.
It was a great weekend
However the journey down wasn't a smooth one but we made it there and back 😁👍
Great job Som! I knew you would eventually find the culprit. I do have the same method of fixing my vehicles and sometimes I fix things proactively as well. One tip for o-rings and pipes in general, spray some silicone before install back. Slides like butter after that
Cheers for the heads up about the seal. I only had oil on the side of the road, but it did the job 😁👍
Had some issues all sorted 😊due to your heartache in videos! Cheers 👍👍
So glad they helped mate
Happy days Sam- hope all goes well😊
All fixed now 😁👍
Great job, Sam! 👍☺ What a task - replacing the parts and filming all of that at the same time.
Good to see, that you got the emoji problem solved and that you have kept your sanity 😉.
Your videos are important and valuable content. It will save others money and headaches. 😊
We got our bi-turbos replaced now - perhaps and hopefully that's the end of our pigtail woes as well.
I've had twin turbos two 🤣🤣 glad you got things sorted, pal 👍
Hi Sam, another great video. I don't know how you do it all one handed, I'd get yourself a head torch and gopro so you've got both hands to work with. We didn't make the overlander show this year but look forward to catching up with you guys soon.
It's always a challenge. I've tried the gopro before ok when it works but a nightmare when it doesn't record
Start enjoying your van again mate 😊🤞
I am don't worry 😁👍
Where in Bulgaria for a few weeks then. Down to Turkey to reach our 180 days then into Greece 😊
Awesome videos Mate. Still struggling. With mine. £2500 in so far. Just on way back to volksmaster to drop the van off. For further diagnosis
How did you get on?
I was watching your video yesterday I have a audio a6 I take it will be the same problem as you had
If it got the vw engine in its possible mate
You wont believe what a small world it is, i have the same fault code on my Golf mk6 and yours was the top video. I'm gonna try this fix as can get the part quite cheap, however do you know if this would have anything to do with the P0102 code I'm getting as I've changed the MAF sensor and when I clear the code I still get the same fault code and glowplug light.
Hello pal 👋😁 its a really small world
It's more than likely that you may have an issue with the connection. Is the MAF sensor an OEM part?
Mine went intermittent. Give it a shake and re start. Be ok for a while. Have replaced it now, But they are dam expensive. Bought from VW van dealer at £190 pounds.
We are fault free and have been since replacing it so happy we got to the bottom of this
I'm really pleased that the van faults are all now fixed. Its been a painful slog for you to get the van right and you know I know what a soul destroying experience it can be thinking stuff is fixed only for the blasted fault to pop up to laugh in your face. Still, as they say, Perceverence ( and a bottomless wallet) pays dividends in the end. I am glad your van is fixed now. Mine has now become legendary in my family circle. It was my sister's secret birthday party yesterday and my cousin asked me how the van was doing (clearly a loaded question) and I fell for it- recounting all my woes....to which they all shouted "Its because its a vauxhall!!!" and then they laughed.....badum tish! lol even worse lol.... they then posted it as a comment on my facebook page-the little @£%!!! Anyway, always good to speak to you-hopefully one day in person at one of the meetups. Bessy regs-Kenny
Cheers pal we will cross paths at some stage 😁👍
Wahoo finally
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤞
Did you have a part number? Awesome video
Sorry I forgot all about this
amzn.to/3TELqjR
Just watched other video where you had trouble finding fault with turbo and pigtails permanently coming on I am at same stage ready to torch the van with me in it
I have had Map sensor
Egr valve
Boost control solenoid all replaced at garage they road test for a week then hire the van out and pig tails appear followed by engine light then limp mode any suggestions please

All my issues came back to the vacuum pump have you replaced that?
If I ask them to replace it is it an expensive exercise
Do you know if the pump has a fuse or relay? I’m having the same issue and I’ve got a new pump on the way but thought I’d check this in the meantime
good question I'm not sure
Hi Sam did you fit an original part as I had same problem on mine about a year ago, I fitted a new part from ebay and the light came back on. I sent the part back and replaced it with an original and it's been fine ever since
We fitted all oem parts I'm not making that mistake again mate 😁👍
Where are you ? I wondered
I'm here 😁👍
Hiya did yours always stay on? I get this now again on my crafter especially after it rains I plug in and says no fault code found. If I turn the engine off and back on it dosent come back.
Great vlog I think I might look into this :(
It was intermittent at first but then just stayed on all the time, so it had to be changed out 😁👍
@@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife bugger think this will happen to my crafter :( I get it now again
@@whippetsadventuresandoneman hopefully not 🤞
Hopefully the code reader hasn't been seen in Stratford this weekend...? 🤔😉
Only on the way down I got some miles in on the M6 hard shoulder 🤣🤣🤣 20 minutes in a Preston pup car park and we were all.good to go again 😁👍 you couldn't write it pal
@@TheCraftyBlindersvanlife TPS must love you... 😏
@@PK_Blinder and all the others 😁👍
I absolutely love the crafter as a van . But VW really need to sort the reliability issues. If you owned one as your own business. You would be bankrupted. By the costs .
I filed for bankruptcy this morning 🤣🤣🤣
Bish bash bosh m8
