Noticed that the hot water service leaked after a while called over the plumber accross the road to check it out ,although its under warranty im not going to sit there whilst it leaks through the van shell. tried the pressure valve while it was connected to mains and element was on.Mate said this dosent feel right. Must be blocked. Got into cupboard and the pipe which drains the overflow valve had 2x big kinks in it .Bottom line,when tank gets hot relief valve opens but has nowhere to go so leaks out of o ring and runs down inside hws. Love the van but not impressed by the finishing touches!!! Wont even go into the radio that fell out,Fixed that myself as well. Never no they may give me a gift when i take it back for first service. Dont get me wrong GREAT VAN
