Up plating

[stevewagner]

Just uprated mine from 4250 to 4600 with VWE took 2 days and 3 emails. Chassis plate arrived within a week. Cost was £180. Excellent service!

Likewise, 4500 to 5000 it’s the DVLA that’s the fly in the ointment

Pedant alert! - it's a twin wheel axle not a TAG axle - unless the Hilux wheels rock onto the road and then it would be a TAG axle

Correction appreciated .

I uplated 15th March, got V5 back yesterday with the new revenue weight minus the MAM despite a letter with the application

Same here. Updated to 3960KG and received the V5 back couple weeks ago but the MAM hadn't been adjusted so had to send back to the DVLA. Let’s see how many times it’s going to take for them to get it right!

Very happy with Van Weight Engineering

I just rung them up this morning, they apologised and a new amended V5 is in the post

Yup I rang them up but was told I had to return my V5. Seems it will depend on who answers the phone as to what they advise you. Believe me, if they don’t get amended and back to me soon, I will not be a very happy person

I’ll let you know when/if it turns up amended. She never said anything about returning the V5
I can’t send it back I’m away in 4 weeks

When I did my last van a few years ago now it took them 4 months to get it right that was in normal times.

I can only tell you what’s on the form for Van Weight Engineering.
Please tick the box to say you have supplied a Weighbridge ticket or photo of.

It’s on the form but they said when I did mine that it isn’t necessary unless down plating

But up plating it is required…

Nope, done mine without a weighbridge certificate

 

[WESTY66]

Nope, done mine without a weighbridge certificate

Me too, only need weighbridge ticket if down plating, if up plating leave it blank

As per other comments getting the new plate is not the issue -

Mine took over 3 months from DVLA and within that time period took a number of calls to get the “mam” to reflect the correct weight on the V5 - one area to check and make sure they match, especially if going abroad.
