Thanks for the suggestions. Our nearest dealer, the one who told me yesterday it would need a whole new lock managed to find just the outside handle, so that will be winging its way to me.

Thanks for the reply Mel. Working my way through the spares outlets at the moment to see what I can get. Fitting should be the least of my issues 😁

Well that’s a bad start to this years season for us. 3rd day away and we find that the key will not open the door on our 2021 Adria Adora. Had a caravan engineer in to look at it, and it transpires that a metal component of the outer lock mechanism has failed. Of course, the van warranty expired...

Yep, diesel definitely on the way up again. One local garage has a 24ppl difference between unleaded and diesel. That can’t be anything but profiteering as that particular garage has a lot of HGV traffic.

Thanks to all who answered this thread. I've bought a new Whale submersible pump with Truma connection, fitted a 5 amp fuse (as specified by Whale), adjusted the pressure switch, and all seems good now. The Truma pump that kept blowing fuses will be consigned to the bin. Only thing I would say...

Wow, thanks for all the helpful replies John, thanks for such a comprehensive reply. I tracked down the instructions for adjusting the pressure switch (it is a Whale switch fitted) and it looks like it had never been properly set up. I followed the instructions as linked to by Audiorob, and got...

Morning everyone, and sorry for starting yet another Truma Pump thread. Our Truma submersible pump (connecting through an Ultraflow connection) has suddenly started blowing the 7.5A fuse (3 yesterday alone). common sense says it’s likely to be an issue with the pump, particularly as when we...

Obviously already tried that Joanie, but all the adverts seem to only go up to 2W50

Was just wondering if anyone had managed to source any replacement Westfalia keys coded later than 2W50? I’m looking for ones in the 80s so that I can actually keep a towbar key on my key ring. The red topped Westfalia keys aren’t really conducive to that. I get that I can simply keep the red...

Must admit we have a similar concern with respect to the caravan tipping, so one of us walks beside hitch ready to put extra weight on it if required. I also leave the rear steadies down slightly, although that may simply be a panacea. We can see the front end lightening, but so far haven't...

Hi John, Thanks for the reply. It’s a 2015 MY XC70, and the warning comes up in the area at the bottom of the speedo , displaying the text “Trailer Indicator Malfuntion”. One of our neighbours has a horse box, so I’ll see if I can hook that up and check. I’m also wondering if the van...

Hi, Just home from our first trip away, and our outfit has developed an odd fault. We tow our 2021 Adria Adora with a 2014 Volvo XC70. The car has a dealer fit towbar and towing wiring module. Initially everything worked fine, but I we have started getting a Trailer Right Indicator Fault...
