Re: Replacement Seals for Side Windows.
Hi Maxstu Ta for your reply. Unless someone comes up with the size for the exact model conversion that I have, I think I'll wait until I/the man take out a window. The seal doesn't just go over the metal, but also the interior trim and it's difficult to measure without removing the window. Still wou...

Can't Undo the Locking Wheelnuts
Hi Guys Cybil has just gone for her annual service. As I've moved I'm using a more local garage but one who lives and breathes T25s Man says that the locking nuts are damaged and the key lugs just slip out of the holes which are elongated. He has a locking nut removal tool but this won't fit becaus...

Wouldn't start - Happy ending, some lessons learnt!
Hi Guys. Had a good summer in Cybil with no problems at all (apart from wife locking us out once :D ). Always instant start. Home on 26th Oct. Two weeks later wouldn't start. Engine turned over ok and attempted to fire up, then did and revved ok, then died as soon as I went to idle. Wouldn't fire u...

Re: 3.9kg Propane Bottle Shortage
They have not completely stopped supply , they have stopped replacing worn out and dangerous cylinders , so supply will be “awkward” but not impossible https://www.calor.co.uk/news-and-views/update-to-cylinder-range Hi Steve I tried 10 Calor suppliers in my area and none had any stock, nor were the...

3.9kg Propane Bottle Shortage
Hi Guys Just emptied my 3.9 kg Calor bottle only to find that Calor have stopped supplying or exchanging these (since Feb this year). Suppliers are using up existing stock, but in my area they've all gone. I've managed to buy a Flogas 3.9 kg bottle, but it seems that I was lucky because these are al...

Condensation - dealing with it.
Hi Guys It's that time of year when you wake up to the windows running with condensation. :( Windscreen is the worst followed by the rear window and then the sides. Wiping them down results in buckets of water! My neighbour, in a T4 had an external thermal cover on their windscreen which worked a tr...

Awning Attachment Problem
Hi Guys I have a T25 Holdsworth Villa 3 Pop top. Until recently I had a Cube awning which attached to the gutter by metal tube and clamps. I now have a Turismo S awning which is connected by 3 Figure of 8 75cm long plastic connector strips which I understand from the Awning FAQ should fit onto the ...

Re: IS MY FRESH WATER PUMP A GONER?
Hi, Sorry, I don't login every day. The reference is B08HQ6785R . Put that in Google and it'll show up in an Amazon link. In my system there is NO filter. The non return valve is situated just after the tank outlet. If that's where your 'filter' is, maybe it's not a filter but a faulty non-return va...

Re: IS MY FRESH WATER PUMP A GONER?
Hi Hugh I know that you've now got your pump to work but you said something interesting in your first post. I think you said that you were able to blow down the pipe into the tank. This suggests to me that your non return valve is faulty. The output from your tap should be instant, even after weeks ...

Re: T25 pop top

I was wondering if anyone has bought a drive away Vango awning priced £285? It's fairly small and has poles rather than blow up but I saw it at a festiv...

Re: Can anybody help explain what's going on with my 'fresh' water tank system?
Hi. I have a 1990 Holdsworth Villa 3 Conversion. Your tank looks the same as mine. Where you've got a disc in the side, I've got a plastic drain tap moulded onto the tank - very useful for flushing the tank and needed at the end of the season to drain the tank. I suspect you used to have one! :( Th...
