Water dripping off roof of Burstner IXEO 586 directly over door

[pswatso]

We have a Burstner IXEO Time 586 and have just returned from a wet 3 weeks in Scotland. The problem we have is that when the Motorhome is parked sloping even slightly forward (towards the front) with even a slight left to right tilt, rain runs down the roof to the bump in the roof (caused by the raised bed I think) then runs across the roof and drips (or cascades) directly over the door. This makes it impossible to get in or out without getting wet. This appears to be a huge fault with the design of the roof and I was hoping someone knows something about this problem

Hi there, we have the ixeo664 and I believe fiamma make a strip of plastic that sends the water to rear of van. Try googling it, hope this helps

The Fiamma product is called “Drip Stop” and comes in three lengths.

Hi, sorry for the late reply - we've been away for 10 weeks in the motorhome!

We had exactly the same problem with our it 590. If you have an awning fitted, the following link will provide a solution.

The first time it happened to us we were in Italy on our first ever trip - scary isn't it?

Hope that this is of some use to you, and that you can still enjoy your motorhome - none of them are perfect!

.....or use ramps to tilt it slightly the other way? That's what we do, when I remember.
