Re: S Karosser Heating System

Thanks Zildjian, I rang a local caravan service guy I have used before to fix my fridge and he gave me the answer. The drain is a pipe that goes through the floor ending with a threaded bung which undoes with an allen key as in the picture. I guess the pipe comes from the underside of the boiler as ...

Re: S Karosser Heating System

Thanks Peaky. I read the manual but it only mentions how to drain the hot water not the heating fluid. I found an installation guide for the 3020 boiler (later version than 3000, but same should apply I guess). It says:- The installer should fit one or more drains in the central heating system to al...

Re: Does Air Suspension affect Rear Brake Load Compensator?

They finally came to the conclusion that it must be because it is an Invincible rather than the standard model, and it has a bunch of...

Does Air Suspension affect Rear Brake Load Compensator?

My rear brakes have been locking up when I've got the camper mounted, but are fine when demounted. I've found that my Hilux is missing the load compensator valve that is meant to prevent this happening, together with all the linkage that goes with it. This is a bit weird and no one I've talked to, i...

Re: Clamp on towing mirrors.

Re: USB wall sockets?

I agree with the bloke in the video. I've got one of these and it works fine, and if it goes wrong I can throw it away and get another, unlike the USBs built into the socket.
