As an ex Army Veteran Pappy loves the outdoors. We had been avid tent campers for nearly 20 years, but moved over to a motor-home in preparation for retirement at the end of 2018. After 6 years of happy motor homing we have opted for a more comfortable holiday mode in rental cottages and lodges. We will continue to travel as long as we can.

I’m in Australia
Hi Andy great vid 👍 question though, I noticed your mobile was not in range, mine does this 😢 how the heck did you fix it ? My phone as a hotspot is on but can I buggery get it to connect 😢 Any advice would be appreciated Keep up your good work 👍
Hi Good video I am going to try SMARTY mobile
Lovely part of mighty Wales
Great Pappy, good standby where did you get extention cable? Joe
I got it from Amazon 👍
Thank you Pappy for bringing this issue to my attention, I have recently bought a 2007 Ducato Swift Motorhome and it has the water build up issue in injector valley, I now cover engine with plastic sheeting when parked up and have also reseal wind screen bottom seal and used silicon on gutter under bonnet. Sorry to hear of your costly repair bill, hopefully this issue can be resolved on later models in the future. Thank you again from New Zealand.
Does it keep midge's out?
What a bunch of Atholls
Thanks Andy for the great video very helpful I’m going to try for myself.
I can get as far as what is shown at 13:17 min in but then my phone isn't recognized. I have mobile hotspot tethering switched on on my phone?? Rgds Gary
Really thanks for that very informative video Pappy. I just checked my 2021 and took off the cover. 2 issues found. Blocked middle water outlet pipe from scuttle down to drivers side wheel hub exit. Got that sorted but then noticed lots of water getting in behind scuttle and windscreen and also wiper spindle. Cleaned and removed the rust and soaked injector area and all the electrical connections with ACF50. Did a temp sealing of the scuttle with a heavy layer of Vaseline and that stopped anymore ingress. Will remove it and do a proper sealing later. Fiat are a disgrace to keep producing Ducato's with this known issue as it can end up costing people thousands in hefty repair bills. Once again thanks from Ireland 👍
Great video and explanation. However this also can happen to Vauxhall Vivaro and Ford Transit even with a cover over the injector / glow plugs. The biggest area of weakness in all these vans is water coming through the scuttle plate at the bottom of the windscreen. Take it off clean out the drains, and remove any rust from under the scuttle plate and reseal with a good quality sealant. Then, if you can get to the injector heads and glow plugs spray them with WD 40 for water dispersant.
Thanks for this information, invaluable
Vauxhall Vivaro has the same problem because the scuttle strip leaks, this can be a quick fix but if you have bought a secondhand one the damage is already done. This happens even with the cover over the injectors and glow plugs.
So i am assuming there is no problem with filling the adblue at anypoint i dont know whats in the tank at the moment and getting ready for a long journey over a period of time so would like to have a full tank.. am i right in this
Yes you can top up at any point. 👍
Never had an adblue vehicle before this video was absolutely fantastic simple to understand i wont have anymore fears of using the add blue, thanks again
Thank you sir for this helpful video.
Bonnet going up in 10 mins
Much appreciated, checking it tomorrow!
thanks mate
I invested in an aerosol can of copper slip UHT grease and sprayed around the bases of the injectors
Do you still recommend this method of protection after 10months? It appears mine are fine but just thinking of preventative steps
@@ianross04I no longer own that particular motorhome but if I did, having invested in a 400 ml can of copper slip grease I would continue to spray around the base of the injectors at least once a year. If the injectors are corroded you will have problems potentially trying to remove them in the event of a problem.
Amazing x
Wow!!! Amazing video, thank you for sharing! :)
😃
I got one from Amazon also as we struggle for WiFi on our holidays in Cornwall, please note there is a WiFi password in letters and numbers it’s not the one that says password-admin.
THANK YOU
mine never had a cover and my rain water drainage pipe got blocked and the head was under water, i have problem starting it on and off and when it gets wet my electrics go bonkers and wont start at all, i have to get something to soak up the water before i can start it and stop my electrics going crazy, a couple injectors are getting rusty. i'm gonna try and get them out clean and do what ever i can with limited tools and numpty thinking and hope its more reliable at starting
I've tried 4 different sim cards none of them w ok work,I get 2 green lights
Thank you dear Pappy, excellent & simple review. I'm looking at this to replace my expensive Sky home broadband while I go through uncertain job change. Nervous of long contracts right now. You've helped me a lot! Best wishes to you & your loved ones 🥰❤
Great video, you've done the common man a service here. Thank you 👍
It can bugger the ecu too when the water leaks in, had this with my motorhome, 8k on the clock, started to get starting problems on the first initial start of the day, it ruined my European touring trip, tried everything as we thought it was fuel issues, injector issue or maybe fuel filter or pump and in the end Peugeot done an ecu update, luckily it took otherwise it could of cost a couple of thousand.
Thanks pappy❤
Couldnt get my firestick to work on my Avtex Pro via the three pin plug, however, after seeing a USB on top of the tv I plugged it in and it worked👍👍👍
Whats the hair dryer being used it looks ideal
the big question i cant find anywhere is " how do we know when the add blue is full or near is maximum level ??? " please let me know thanks :)
I'm jane from Kenya bt am in Saudi arebia I want that wifi how I can get for all network when I'm in Saudi and and when am in kenya
Hi were did you get the booster from.
Another problem with scuttle drains is the drain on the passenger side,it drains straight onto the gear box linkage.If your gear change is becoming stiff and "clunking" a large dollop of grease solves the problem snd protects the linkage.
With engine cold and in store outside stop water getting on injectors by using dustbin bag over engine,bags are waterproof just remember to remove when engine in use cheap problem solved ,bad design by manufacturer
A great big thank you for this info. My Fiat Ducato sits outside.
Can I use this device to use my mobile 4g sim card Internet for better speed?
Is the packing size of it large? it says 18 liters but I can't believe it
You are a real gentleman, typical scotsman. Thank you and slainte from Ireland
🤦♂ good info Pappy, that cost should go back to the manufacturers if its a known historical fault! Have a new sub.... JP
Thank you for taking the time to make this video - much appreciated!
Thank you. Very helpful. I've seen in a forum the the Firestick remote ontrol doesn't work with an Avtex. We have an Avtex L199 DRS which I think is what you have. Were you using the Avtex remote or the Firestick remote control please? Thanks.
Hi there. Did you get any problems with the electrical side. Mines leaking and I’m getting faults with engine management
Great advice, just what I was looking for. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge. ❤️🙏🏴
Sorry to hear that pappy, thanks for the video/advise.
This has been an ongoing problem with this van since the first van came off the production line in 2007.. absolutely disgraceful that they have not improved the design in 15 years of Production..Its obvious that they don't give a toss about Quality Control. Shame on them. 😡
Probably because the base unit is designed for commercial use, so expected to be used frequently avoiding a buildup of water due to evaporation. Poor designing nevertheless.
