I appear to have a slight leak on the drain down tap on my lunar quasar 2010, it is a constant drip, does anyone know if you can fit a new washer (if it has one) or can you purchase a new tap anywhere, i have searched online to no avail. was going to ask
the experts but they are all closed for questions which makes me wonder why they are on website.

    I`m not familiar with your van but would guess its a Truma valve fitted as part of the Truma Boiler etc if you google Truma Drain Down Valve it will show numerous types which may be a start.

    Never had to replace one but the valve on our Lunar looks exactly like the one fitted to the Avondale we had previously. I would have thought almost any dealer would be able to sell you the bit needed. Not sure how old your caravan is so yours might be different
    to ours.

    If it's the same as mine

    they looked sealed, so I doubt you can change the washer.  They seems very pricey to me - a Tee valve for 15mm plumbing costs about £3.50
