May be look at what they have done in France. The communities, even small communities have clearly marked public disposal points. Some free, some accessed by paying through a slot machine.

The fridge is a Vitrifrigo C42L.

Thanks for the tips.

I'll be on the road tomorrow. I'll try:

1. 12v switch - On
2. Set to Caravan Battery
3. Mains - Off
4. Set to Up Towing

I'm a fairly recent Bongo owner. They ain't big. A way of creating additional space (other than a bigger van) would be a drive away awning, in effect a big tent that attaches to the sliding door. Very cheap toilet tents are also available. Are you planning to stay on campsites or wild camp? All site...

Thanks for replying. My understanding is there are two solar controller cables, one to the leisure battery and one to the solar panel. On the move, I have had the Zig 12v switch set to off as the manual states "Note that the fridge is independently wired and is not controlled by this switch.&qu...

Sorry for abrupt tone - using iPhone key pad. On hook up - fridge working well Driving - should work from solar panel, but defrosts Arrive at site - on hook up, will not start. Remove Zig fuse to check it, okay, put fuse back in fridge reboots. Happened several times, take out fuse, put it back in f...

Thanks for the replies.

There were some chalets on the Hungarian camp site so I upgraded for the night. Never mind the noise of the gale, it was the rumpy pumpy Germans that kept me awake after midnight. You would have thought people would be more discrete with thin walls!

On holiday, not in the UK, it's lashing down with rain and wind is blowing at 30 mph. Is there a wind speed limit for raising the AFT without the risk of causing damage?

Great, many thanks Geoff.

I promised that I did search the forum beforehand and read the threads. I still haven't formed a conclusion. My side-conversion, 2.5D Bongo has 215/65R16C tyres. A sticker on the door frames recommends 32 and 34 PSI. However postings on the forum suggest higher pressures and the same all round for l...

Many thanks

Just after some advice, are there parts of the AFT lifting mechanism that should be kept well greased or oiled? Mine goes up and down okay, but is a bit noisy in the second phase of coming down.

Regards.

Many thanks again John.

John,

Many thanks for your time taken in getting back to me. Can I just check one thing, did you mean to say 215/70/15? Or is your rationale that a 215/70/15 spare is in tolerance with the main 215/65/16s?

Regards,
