Greetings to everybody!
I recently acquired a 2012 Vito W639 and need to address several issues, in addition to planning to perform the servicing myself.
I aspire to seek assistance here while also providing support to others.

Vito, our second vehicle, will facilitate the transportation of extensive equipment for our active family engaged in climbing and sailing. My partner utilises a wheelchair, which occupies much room in our Toyota Verso and complicates packing; so, a second vehicle is necessary.

I utilise the Vaino to convey my mother in her wheelchair.

In our two seats, the bench is reversed and positioned forward for the dog.
The removal of one of the rear captain's seats accommodates mother.

Manually elevate the ramp beneath the tailgate.
Unwin secures the chair to the seat rails and fastens the seat belt.

Certain wheelchairs are excessively broad for the available space.

Do you possess the seat rail system?

Maintaining the engine is relatively straightforward. Having an automatic transmission makes it less straightforward.

Greetings and welcome - we have utilised a Vito Dualiner as a secondary or family vehicle for 18 years. We have the rear compartment enclosed for our twelve dogs and tow a caravan with it. Typically operate with only the two-seat configuration positioned centrally.

What is the length and engine specification you possess?

Indeed, seats traverse along tracks. Ample space is available for the wheelchair and its engine. My girlfriend does not require a wheelchair at all times; she utilises standard seating and is capable of driving.

It features an extended wheelbase and an OM651 engine paired with an automated gearbox. I am currently diagnosing malfunctioning parking sensors and seeking the appropriate manual or software to obtain.

There are three sizes, but only two wheelbases: the 'extra long' (now designated L3) features a lengthy wheelbase, while both the 'long' (L2) and 'compact' (L1) share the same wheelbase.

I am another victim of the Vito, specifically an owner of an earlier model: my vehicle is a 2007 109 CDI LWB.
I presume that your latest version will exhibit developmental enhancements, as previous iterations possess numerous unfavourable issues, in my opinion.
Despite having over 250,000 miles, she is in excellent driving condition and continues to be highly functional, capable of transporting three passengers, two motorcycles, a generator, spare parts, a gazebo, wheels with wets, jerry cans of petrol, and more throughout the UK to various racetracks. Furthermore, I have possessed her since 2013, which may imply a degree of "willing victim" in my situation.
