Hi, I'm considering moving our spare wheel from the chassis mounted AL-KO spare wheel carrier into the internal locker under our transverse fixed bed. The advantages I see as easy access, a clean spare wheel, security and a weight saving as I will also remove the spare wheel carrier. We have a 2021 Coachman Laser 575…
To replace Reich caravan filter Problem, tap felt loose no water. Firstly, consider is it’s worth the effort of replacing the filter. Firstly, remove the cap logo on the tap handle, underneath there is a torx screw. Remove the handle by pulling upwards. Next there are 2 torxs screws 1 on top behind the handle and 1 on the…
I had a real struggle to lower the stabilizer - it had new pads (or whatever the terminology is at service). Should this really be a problem? A few years back I had to jump the thing down on a different caravan. It certainly wasn't this stiff when the caravan was brand new 2 years ago. Is there anything I can do or do I…

The readings in places were high 60% ....ouch. I checked for the source & found two small splits in the sealant at the end of the aluminium roof strap covering the roof…
Hello, On my recent trip away, and on the first setup, I discovered I did not have a 230v supply coming into my 2019 caravan. The warden tested his end, and my cable, both ok, so it seems the fault is in the van. My dealer is due to look at it, but he tells me with the Sargent units he can only confirm it is at fault, but…

I need to do some touching-up to my paint work, does anyone know the best place to get a match for a 2004 Abbey Spectrum?
We had the caravan fridge serviced earlier this year and the burners were replaced (a problem with fridges of the time, apparantly). Anyway, we rarely use the fridge on gas, but had to on one site last year. It smelled a bit funny, hence the repair and service. So I thought it best to put it on gas every so often, to make…
