...them lonways to give some additional support. i think the main issue is when people fully-seal-all-round which causes air pockets and water ingress that can heat-up in extreme weather and bubble up the panel . . . . . . im hoping by leaving the lower ridges open, and at the rear that this...

Interesting thread and great information from both of you, @General-Monty & @Dav-Tec. My 8" door speaker has failed from water ingress, albeit after about 3 years. I'd made a curved shroud out of sound deadening, stuck on the back side of the door frame, behind and over the speaker that worked...

That it is rusty shows that there was a water ingress issue anyway? Looks like you’ll get to sort that too

That’s always the concern with this type of item. I have also replaced my rear reflectors with LED ones, but one always seems to fail after about a year. I would happily pay more for a quality item, but even a higher price does not guarantee that and I’ve only ever found them on fleabay...

I seem to recall someone recently saying on a thread about tailgate leaks that a common ISH area of water ingress was over the threshold protector at the sides and then it wicked along under the floor. It stuck in my mind as that's where I have the water carrier in my rear kitchen pod...

Dreamy! This worked for me :) Thanks @Niknak !

Whilst cleaning our 2 year old van I noticed that the paint had cracked in one of the roof channels and a piece of paint had come off. The roof is covered by a 3 year warranty by the conversion company. I contacted them and provided photos and in their opinion the issue was “cosmetic”. They...

What a ridiculous design anyway, that allows water ingress into the interior of the van! What were VW thinking that day!? :mad:

Thanks for reply. My fault is weird, when the van is locked overnight etc it's takes 1min plus to unlock but then once it's unlocked it will work perfectly fine opening and closing as many times as I want, but once I lock it again, it stops working. I did do some changes with the Carista app...

...unit that has the panel that you pull against as part of it, it didn't work. I also replaced the motor. It was fine for a year, then did it again. This time I just replaced the panel unit and it's been fine for about 6 months. I wonder if water ingress/condensation is getting in the electronics.

Apologies if this has been asked before but in a slight flap, I’ve discovered the cab floor lining is damp and stinks like an old sock, I’m removing the upstand for the bulkhead and found it’s damp right behind the passenger bench seat, hopefully I will have attached a photo, any ideas?

Exploria only fit OEM sliders and I’m pretty sure they guarantee they won’t leak.

I found it and its not pretty! I appear to have some water ingress into the van and it looks like its been going on for some time judging by the state of the wiring connection on B311. I think it was just a coincidence that the fault came when it did and after replacing the fuses I feel pretty...

...hit the spoiler when the tailgate is open. I mounted my rack on the factory fit OEM roof bars so 1, i know they are warrantied against water ingress and 2, i could move the rack forward or back to accept the spoiler. The mesh works really well as i still found some items on the rack were...

And do you need to do anything to the awning channel that is fitted to the van to stop water ingress, corrosion etc?

Sorry to bomb your old post. Out of interest that green plug you mentioned... is there a reverse wire there?

...this error since last November! The other option on the table was a new ECU as well, but even though everything was working (also no water ingress or damage to ecu on inspection). They still believed replacing ecu was not worth it. Bottom line, the pumps are working, circuits are fine, ECU...

1. Have a quick visual check of the cable from the van socket to the floor penetration, could be rat damage. 2. Check the van socket for water ingress, strip it down.

Hi all Not sure if this is a fault but guess should sort sooner rather than later if it is - washing the van today I had water ingress to both side sliding windows but when I was spraying water from the hose straight at them - the question is is that expected or a fault cheers

Well, I've tested the horns (which I fitted with the horns facing down) and the horn tests fine on a separate 12v supply. The issue is the vehicle wiring, as with the horns removed, I'm getting a permanent voltage of between 2 and 3 volts. I m getting 10 - 10.5 volts when the horn is...
