    Tow car quandry

    When I`m towing I always increase the tyre pressures to the towcars suggested pressures for a fully loaded vehicle. I feel this helps with the ride of the car. Does anyone else do this?

    Bailey Unicorn Mk III - Bumper Trim

    Hi Montrose. I assume you mean the rubbery/ plastic trim, 5/6mm wide, that protects the front corner protectors and the rear lower section from rubbing against the main body of the van. I assume they are there to stop the rubbing against the body and to help most of the rainwater to run off. It...

    Bailey Cadiz awning question ?

    Hi, when we bought our Cartagena, I checked the awning rail with one of those yellow protector tapes and found it had a slight blockage in 2 places. I phoned our dealer and he sent someone out to clear it. It was excess sealant inside the rail which he appeared to file down with fine emery...

    how much damp is damp?

    I had a Compass Rallye (Eldiss Group) 7 or 8 years ago which was serviced each December by a local mobile guy. The damp report showed a damp reading of 20% at the front nearside top locker on 2 services. When tested in the spring, the same area was down to less than 10%
