Where do I find the resevoir to checks the level

Hi On the plus side - Have just got had 2 lovely weeks in Cornwall 8) On the negative - While we were down there the van has gradually gone from starting 1st time no probs to needing the cold start fully out to start. I also get the occasional cloud of smoke when it kicks in. Once it warms up its fi...

Thanks for the info - c'est tres tres interesting our kid. I think its just the top bit I need as its the pipe joining the top sleeve which has come away (there are no leaks out of the main unit) (see pics - click on them for full view). I was nt sure if fitting a new top bit to the main unit might ...

Are brakes that important?!!!

Not sure of its proper name but I am leaking oil from the vacuum pump(?) which gives brake servo assistance (located top right of engine) I have tried fixing with araldite but it didnt last. Brakes work but need Chris Hoyes thighs to stop quickly - also concerned about losing oil. Does anybody know ...

Hi

My 3-way fridge needs a service - can anybody recommend somewhere to go in the Manchester area.

Many thanks

Have seen it in Halfords - does it work, are there any cheaper alternatives (£12.99 for 2l), how much will I need, will to much salt on the road give my van a heart attack?

I have the same problem - when i select 4th it often pops the facia off my radio. Although for some reason it happens more when the missus' has got Take That on! Cant figure it out!!!!

Thanks for the tip campervanman.

Moki - what do you mean by 'foot plate'

Flex in the roofbar. - mainly because the bars are on their maximum extension to fit the width of the van. Aint no big deal though.

In my younger years when i occasionally kipped in my car after a night out (no room at the inn/to tight to pay for a taxi etc) i used to take of the dizzy cap/spark plug lead to imobilise the car - this way i could claim that there was no way i could drive/move the car should the fuzz knock on. Thou...

Flea-bay - last time i looked there were a few. Depending on what you have i.e. high roof/pop top - you want the ones which have come either a high or semi high roof van e.g transist.

Alternativily you could go to halfords - but they are a bit pricey

I ve got some of those brackets on my joker pop-top and there are plenty of cheap bars on flea-bay-I got a pair for £25 inc delivery - just make sure that they are wide enough - t25s are wider than the average car. Re. weight - all i put on the rack is the surf board - and even then there is a bit o...
