Re: Van Not turning over question.

Really good YouTube vid available shows exactly what to do. You will need a good sized socket (24mm if I remember correctly) to take off the steering wheel.

Re: Van Not turning over question.

I had a similar issue recently checked all the earths and bought a new battery, still did the same thing….sometimes it would turn over sometimes not. Ended up changing the ignition switch assembly……problem solved.

Re: Gutter bars with Fiamma awning

I have the arb awning with thule gutter bars, I find I can fit the bars as long as I totally remove the bars tightening mech. This allows it to fit between the gap of the awning and the roof.

sounds to me like there is something wrong with the actual lock and wafers. In the above video is shows how to replace the door handle, but gives a good view of the lock as they swap it over. Might be a good place to start?

Re: Tyres

Just read a few tyre manufacturer sites and seems the consensus is to put new tyres on the back rather than the front
kwickfit link says the same https://www.kwik-fit.com/tyres/informat ... e-rotation
