Yes with real radiators full of water.!!

Had a look at a Fleetwood Heritage yesterday and it was fitted with
such a system

Anyone had nay experience of these?

hello all, i wonder if someone can shed a bit of light on a problem i
have experienced recently with my towcar (toyota rav4 d4d turbo
deisel).
this has happened three times now, whilst towing my swift corniche 2
berth the engine warning light has come on, losing all power. i pull
over, luckily there has been hard shoulder, switch the engine off for
a few seconds then restart and away i go. it seems to happen when the
engine is struggling in 5th and i drop to 4th. i have had the car
checked on a diagnostic machine at my garage and the reading states
that there is a fault with the turbo,however there is absolutely no
problems with the car when the rig is not on the back.
anyone heard of anything similar.
cheers M.J.O.T. *mad jocks on tour*

Hello All

We are looking to change our V8 Discovery but are struggling to find a
saloon/estate car that is up to towing our 1490kg (MTPLM Weight) Caravan.
What do other readers use??

Kind regards

G' day to all. I have a coach built camper running one 75Ah starter
battery and one 85Ah leisure battery both under the hood and standard
fit. I should like to connect two sealed 110Ah batteries fitted one on
drivers step and one on passengers step as backup power for when we
are not on mains. The question is how should these be charged? They
say you should only charge batteries of the same capacity at the same
time so I guess that means I shouldn't just extend the cable from my
current leisure battery supply so what should one do?

I emailed Sterling and they replied "Look at our battery to battery
charger 12 v 50 amp unit, this will charge them about 5 times faster
and put 2 x more useful power into them" but no explanations as to the
conclusion!

I could of course just keep the two 110Ah batteries isolated from the
engine system and just charge them when on mains but this would seem a
waste and I would also need some way of ensuring I don't drain them
too much in use.

Bit long winded but generally what do you guys do and how much success
have you had with your systems?

TIA.

My old Kia sedona 2.9 is dead. I`ve a chance of another sedona 2.9 but
its an automatic. It has the same towing spec as my old manual one but
im a bit uneasy because my van is Abbey Spectrum 540 which is a rather
large lump. The caravan club website says there ok. Anyone had any
experence towing a large van with a sedona automatic. Pete

According to Central News tonight.
Apparently sales where down over 50%% and they tried to sell the business in
the spring, I wonder if Swift will be next?

Does it do what it says on the tin?

I am about to find out.

Our van barely 6 month sold was literally washed away in the floods last
week. Ended up about 150 yards down the site full of mud and smelling of
diesel oil. Total right-off. So now we begin the process of insurance
claim and seeing what we get under New For Old. - insured with AXA. I
wonder if anyone has had any experience of this.
