Which show?
If you are looking at the Southern MH show on 16th to 20th May then advance bookings have closed and payment on the gate is £18 more than pre-booked but there isn't a figure stated!
However, other shows are typically £77 pre-booked for Friday arrival so that will be around £95 on the gate from Friday. Note day of departure is irrelevant in the price.

Have you checked your leisure battery voltage? It sounds like it is either flat or has a blown fuse. Do all the interior 12 volt lights work?

Which is why I was hoping onecal would at least tell us whether he has the Ford Technical Service bulletin he quotes.
I posted a link to that above!

As you have reverted back to your original thread I'll freeze this one to avoid confusion.

FD,
I can see you have a 2010 Bessacarr but which engine do you have?

My concern though is that the car braking system would not be operated, only the two wheels on the dolly. This would mean that the full weight of the car would in effect be pushing the motorhome when braking. Is there any way around this please.
And also only braking two wheels would not be legal!
From gov.uk webpage on A frame towing, 'ALL BRAKES ... MUST OPERATE...' https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/a-frames-and-dollies/a-frames-and-dollies

Stuart,
As well as not being legal on the brake situation a tow dolly is considered a recovery aid only and is then classed as two trailers so brings with it lower speed limits and restrictions on use.
Here is a link to a discussion on UKCampsite.co.uk https://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/articles/view.asp?id=18 giving more details.
I think your only answer for an auto car is a full trailer to lift all four wheels off the road.

Hi
I am afraid they do fail regardless of the oil used as it becomes diluted and contaminated with soot, ( regular oil changes are not the norm anymore ) This is well known and Ford have issued a Technical Service Bulletin . The saga goes on and on . At the moment it wouldn't be my choice of motor
Regards
Nearest I can find is a recall letter... https://www.arval.nl/sites/default/files/119/2022/07/20B44_Ford.pdf
And the first paragraph...
And having found 20B44 gives more info...

And the bad part...
"At this point the engine will need to be replaced."

^^^ See thread title. A function of the ABS module since the X250 in 2006/7.
Ooops! My bad, I normally look for such detail within the posting or signature.
Sorry @fawlks

@fawlks What year was your Citreon Relay manufactured?
I thought older models (pre ABS) had a small pick up somewhere on the transmission, possibly near one of the driveshafts?

Ask the dealer if they will post a new valve to you for you to get fitted locally?
-
Do you mean what make and model of motorhome body you have or are you looking for more info on the Peugeot Boxer engine and chassis?
If the motorhome part then can you post a photo or two please?

According to the gov.uk website you do not need a green card for travel in the EU so you need to educate them accordingly... https://www.gov.uk/vehicle-insurance/driving-abroad

Yes, but a couple of questions have been asked so a reply or two would be nice

Hi Megs,
What year is your Autoroller please?
And I have moved your post to a new thread as the one you tagged onto was not really relevant to your question.

One reason for excessive current is low voltage so check your battery voltage is ok. But as the trip will no longer reset you may need to dig deeper for the cause, can you bypass the trip with an ammeter and actually measure the current being drawn?

The inserts look like rubber rawlplugs, ie a rubber tube with a brass insert in the far end. They compress lenghthways and bulge out behind the panel to secure in place and prevent a leak. I would also guess the screws are stainless steel to prevent corrosion.

Well seen as @oonagh wilkinson hasn't logged on since posting the query I doubt we will get any more help here...

And here is the wiring diagram for the 5 stud sensor arrangement https://sargent.zohodesk.eu/portal/en/kb/articles/ec155

Does your fresh water level display show Empty, 25%, 50%, 75% and Full?
If so it needs a 5 wire harness as shown on the Sargent Electrical website https://sargentltd.co.uk/shop/product/ec155-fresh-water-harness/342
And here are the 5 studs to go with the harness https://sargentltd.co.uk/shop/product/ec51-fresh-water-studs-and-screws/136
I'm guessing your tank is insulated so you need to find the remaining sensors and clean them.

Is it the standard VW mirror?
If so then try a VW van dealer or maybe look on Ebay or the like for a pattern replacement.

Hi, I am looking for the same type of lock, but cant find any seller. Elvis the fish, where did you buy a replacement?
Unfortunately I do not think you will get a reply from @Elvis the fish as he hasn't logged on since last July!
Perhaps another forum member can help?

Perhaps that is what is meant to happen and you have just never noticed it in the past?
