Thinking of changing the oil in my ducato 2.8 JTD 2003 this weekend. Any ideas if using fully synthetic such as Total 9000 would be an advantage over semi-syth as used in the past Thanks

Long shot i know.. but there might be someone after a new heating system for their van lurking on here. I'm changing over to wet central heating in my van, and to fund part of that systems parts i'm selling the heater that i bought brand new just over a year ago (as in begining of febuary last year) It's a truma S3002 K heater, this is the one that's certified by the TUV for use in a...

I have now acquired my first camper (luton 4 berth) on transit chassis. Presumably joining Camping and Caravan Club would be a bonus as I plan on visiting plenty of UK sites/CLs. My existing RAC breakdown/recovery automatically covers the camper, and for an extra £85 I can get an upgrade to 1 years Euro cover (subject to being CCC member)

Has anyone experience of hiring a motorvan in Toronto, either in April or in July? We would make a 10-day trip. Is it an economical alternative to, say, 4 nights in a 2 or 3-star hotel? -- Budgie NB Reply to newsgroup. Email address will get you nowhere.

Morning campers. I am interested in buying a camper around £10,000 or less. I think I would prefer a Ford based diesel camper for reliability and servicing costs etc. 2 to 4 berth and preferably a camper and not just a van type (Duetto) Touring UK/Europe Not too worried about LHD/RHD will this affect insurance etc much?

Any opinions on a 1995 RIMOR BRIG 609 on a Ford DI chassis? LHD with 50,000mls on it for £10k? Thank you.

I have a small problem with my Autosleeper Symphony 2.5 diesel boxer. (1994) It starts very well from cold (usually first time, even on cold morning) but sometimes when warm the starting motor makes a whirring sound but the engine fails to start. It usually recovers after a few attempts. Any thoughts or similar experience please. Kev -- zincnews at tiscali.co.uk

I need to change the cab battery, dealers tell me it needs a 017 or 019 around 89 amp hour. I notice the battery fitted is a 110 amp hour combined starter and leisure. My question do I need to replace a 110 amp as there is connections to the leisure (charging) or go for the Fiat recommended Bosch 017/019. Also I have been told to get a battery master fitted to stop the drain on the cab...

Is it easy to change the battery in this van, I think its a 017. At the moment its flat as a pancake, not used for 4 months. Have been advised to buy a Varta or Bosch, both German for lasting power. Found on the net for around £78. Just looks difficult to remove and fit, love some comments Thanks John

Can anyone recommend a supplier &/or fitter of a suitable skylight for a VW T4 Holdsworth Villa Campervan (J Reg) please? A supplier in or close to Bedfordshire would be ideal. I understand that Richard Holdsworth Conversions are no longer in business so perhaps someone could advise if a Fiamma skylight would be compatible. Driving down the M1 on Saturday a gust of wind opened the skylight...

I posted this yesterday to uk.rec.caravanning as I do tow a small caravan but afterwards thought that somebody here may have wandered east and might be able to advise, so here goes :- Last year we went east beyond Berlin to the border with Poland and cycled into Poland and the Czech Republic. This has given us the urge to go further next spring and I have been looking at the northern coast...
