Hi, I took delivery of a new my Lunar Clubman in May and it was fitted withn a Powrtouch Classic Mover by my delaer as part of a show deal. This week I took the caravan back to my storage yard after a week in the New Forest and couldn't help but notice that the end cases on the mover were...

Does anyone know why my fridge in my Swift Hi-Style remains on after the 'power' button above the van's door has been turned off? The van was new in February and after our first trip I did all the usual things to close it down before going home. A week later I went back to take it out again and...

Hi, 2 years ago in France we had the same problem with our Pageant Provence. A neighbour told me to take off the frdige vents and the mesh panel behind them. It's very simple to do and it had the desired effect very quickly. We had the same problem this summer with our Swift Lifestyle (dealer...

Hi Martin, I have owned 2 330d's, a 2006 model and now a new one in March. Both have towed my Pageant Provence and now my new Swift Lifestyle (a dealer special based on the Charisma 495).

Hi David, I use Auto Glym Interior Shampoo (i am sure other makes are available!)which I get for my car from Halfords. I take all the upholstery home, lay out a tarpaulin and then go to work on it all in one go. I spray the cleaner on, use a soft nail brush to agitate the shampoo and then after...

I have just discovered a small amount of water in two places in my Pageant Provence (2004). Inside, looking forward, water is along the lower edge of the left hand lounge window, the part to which the catches are screwed. It's as if the window had been left open but it wasn't! In one of the...

Hi, we have a problem with the grill on our 2005 Pageant Provence, discovered by the service mechanic we use. He says that the flames in the gril flares up, like they are 'dancing' is the best description! He had seen it before on another Pageant, but even after taking it all apart, cleaning it...
