- Start date
My mate who is a plumber is going to fix the water to hot water issue this Thursday. will let you know if its just a valve I read about or whether it has been plumbed wrong altogether. at the same time he will check over all plumbing and give me feedback as to what needs attention, free of charge of course..
he re-plumbed my old van completely underneath as he thought everything was too kinked or restricted.. made a massive difference.

Man o man....
Right decision to buy this van???
So we now have 3 leaks at the front bed and a gas bayonet that can't be used because it is inaccessible!!
Our trip is delayed yet again!!
Has anyone else had this many problems ever with a new van?

Ah we have a little bog in 2 corners. Buts it's very neat, honestly couldn't tell til I knew what I was looking at.
Just got mine and so far it's not bad few small issues but easily overcome
Congrats mate. I'd love to here more about the small issues. And if there were any extras you were unaware of?
Apparently I was to sign if mine this week. But it's already Friday?
Nothing to big just a couple of small things I picked up like silicone in places it's not meant to be
Hi Dean,
When you guys got your van with leather interior, did the small dinette come leather or fabric?
Just checked ours out, and the small dinette is fabric whereas everything else is leather.
I just couldn't tell in your photos.
Thanks
This is my first input to the forum. Thanks for the many inputs from forum members, it made me change my order on the van I purchased. I bought the Expanda 18.58-2 OB. Pickup scheduled for this Monday 7/12/15. Couldn't wait any longer so had a sneak peek at it today. After a long wait, I am glad to say Jayco have change a few things that were of concern in the forum comments list. Still "NO" door for Ensuite. Opted for no washing machine and now have a vanity with a power point in the corner. Shelving next to bunks now have doors. Panel above fridge/freezer now has a small hatch/cupboard next to radio and water gauges. Panel between kitchen and bunks has a cutout for better window viewing from dinette and the top corners rounded. It's going to be a very long weekend just waiting for it. Glad I made the switch from the 17.56.2 OB.
@Dean81 I can see why the better half wants a door to the dunny. Have you figured out a design for a more substantial door yet? We're looking into what we do for our six month trip in a couple years with respect to upgrading and JoM definitely wants a reno done to the ensuite if we go your path.
