Well finally got around to it, first the moan though,
this is the repair undertaken back in July 2012 by the dealer
Have removed the wheel spat and the wheel box to open a can of worms, it is of my opinion that the dealer never removed any of the above two items, and it is a fact they never replaced any of the wall board!! This is proven by peeling back the wallpaper they stuck over the top to hide the damp, so in reality all they did was to run a bed of sealant over the wheel spat (and the wallpaper). In fact the sealant is not on the other side of the van so is not needed as it is purely decorative. In doing this in my opinion they actually made it worse by not allowing any water that got in to escape. It travelled around the bottom of the wheel box which is fixed to the floor.
Any way first photo shows wheel box being removed,
Wheel box removed
The rotton floor from underneath
Oh and I split the wheel spat trying to get it off , ordered new one and two weeks delivery time.
