Now thats a real bargain, well done.

The brake pedal on my Westy has become quite hard to press down, the brakes still work fine but just require a lot more of a shove on the pedal.I have checked the discs, pads, shoes, cylinders etc and all are in good condition and working as they should.I have replaced the vac pump with another one ...

We had two weeks in August at Adgestone camping and caravan club site, we had a fantastic time, the wardens are really friendly and helpful.The site is really big and was only at most 3/4 full.The reviews say that the toilet blocks need up dating which is true but they were still spotlessly clean an...

My vac pump has just packed up aswell.

Polybushed my steering rack, could not believe the difference when I drove it after it was like driving a different van.

Got mine from brickwerks to really good kit with everything you need

I had a similar problem with a Volvo 740td, turned out the radiator was badly clogged up, replaced it and the car ran cooler than it ever had.My gauge fluctuates slightly on my westy but I have found that the water pump drive belt requires regular checking and tightening.I now know if it is a bit sl...

I took mine off as all the other bushes were knackered aswell.I replaced them with the poly ones and it has transformed the van, have to agree that the ones on the end of the roll bar are a bit of a pig to fit but well worth the effort.

Just put bilstein gas shocks on my westy, expensive but worth it, the van has been transformed.Even though only one of my front shocks was visibly leaking once removed it was obvious that they were all well past their best.

I replaced both my upper ball joints this week, had to cut the head off one of the bolts as it rounded but apart from that it was easy. I bought mine from brickwerks, not cheap but the quality seems very good and they came with new bolts.

Hi
I had a similar leak on mine last year, turned out to be the main seal between the two halves had perished.The pump was removed and taken to a specialist who overhauled it.

Hi all in was around £375, the pump repair was £100 and the rest was labour and parts, which included new glow plugs, cam belt, cam belt tensioner, lower inner crank pulley, crankshaft oil seal, crank bolt, injector seals, rocker gasket, pas+alt belts, leak off pipe, dip stick oil seal and a fuel fi...

Had my van back today after having the fuel pump leak fixed.It suddenly got alot worse 2 weeks ago so had the pump removed and took it to a specialist in Newport.The fault was a large seal inside the pump had perished, have had all seals inside replaced, new stop solenoid and the pump recalibrated.A...

Hi We have been members of the caravan club for quite a while but when we sold the caravan last year and bought our westy we also joined the caravan and camping club.Both offer very good sites and facilities but I have to agree that there is certainly alot of snobbery amongst many of the caravan clu...

Mine was taken apart on Saturday so that the leaking fuel pump can be repaired.I got all my parts from brickwerks including a new crank bolt, inner crank pulley and crank seal.My bolts were all rounded aswell any ideas where is best to get some.Have looked on brickwerks but could not find them.
