I had this problem, ran through all the normal switch, connection, earth checks to no avail. Replaced the starter motor and all was well for a few months, then the problem returned. Replacement motor solved the problem for 14 months before it returned again. A third replacement has been working fine...

I wanted to extend the top bunk such that an adult could sleep there. I thought an additional drop in panel would do the trick, but this would involve storing yet another item when not in use. However, it turns out that the standard AutoSleeper table is the perfect drop in size. All that was needed ...

Having just finished I thought I would post my comments:- Bubbles, never really did get a coat on without bubbling, but you soon learn how to 'catch' the set when you can run back with a light touch roller to remove them. I worked 3 coats, flatten back, 4th coat, flatten and buff to finish. Once 24 ...

I managed OK with the front wheels up on ramps. The jack is required to lower/lift the tank so you can get your hands in to remove/fit the breather tubes etc. One of the bolts holding the strap upto the chassis sheared , so needed a bit of work.

The brake master cylinder is dry as a bone.

So before I go rant , is leakage from the Clutch Master Cylinder cause for MOT failure?

The great thing about this forum is that there is little that hasn't been seen before as I find out. Arrived back from a week in Northern Ireland (a great place) to find steam coming out the old air intake on the side. Turns out to be a smal 1/2" crack in the expansion bottle part way between t...

I have what appears to be a common problem with a roof leak. The roof is sealed to the van just above the rear door , this a "T" shaped rubber strip , where the base of the "T" is sandwiched between the fibreglass top and the steel roof. To keep the strip in place holes are drill...
