    If you roll out the spare wheel cable completely, you can pull the wheel under the bumper. You don't have to crawl under the car. (Dis)assembly of the hook is also much easier. The winch first pulls the tire back under the car and then up against the attachment.

    According to the government website the rules have changed again regarding LED replacement bulbs see below This special notice tells you about changes to the rules for headlamp conversions. From March 22 2021, not all motorcycles and vehicles will fail the MOT test if their halogen headlamp units have been converted to be used with high intensity discharge (HID) or light emitting diode (LED) bulbs.

    Great top tip. Thanks for posting. I’ve a CV60 and just done the overflow mod after watching this. I used a short length of garden hose which fits perfectly on the overflow pipe. There was enough space to fit it without kinking it to bend it down. I’ve cable tied the loose end to the chassis. Thanks again.👍

    On my 2023 cv20 I have a slightly different screw plate on the bottom of the fly screen. It does still pop out if you try to pull the fly screen across to high up. There’s a black line where you meant to position your hand. Providing the do that it doesn’t pop out.

    never laughed so much at a video in a long time lol great review. think you'll find the snow foam is fine, the actual foamer you get in the kit and lack of pressure is what lets it down. have the hydroshot myself and use it to give the car a final rinse down with deionised water to save getting water spots.

    16.40 bought the pushfit elbow and pipe ready to follow your lead. Unfortunately the 15mm stub,protruding from the tank is too close to the frame of the vehicle so the elbow won’t fit. Very frustrating. I use a flow meter to make sure I don’t overfill so need to keep using this. On the lookout for some flexi 15mm I/dia plastic tube 🫤

  • @captainoates7236
    @captainoates7236 Рік тому

    I'm very grateful to you for this video. I just found out my spare wheel isn't holding pressure due to a dodgy valve. I stopped the vid half way and went and followed the instructions. I wouldn't have known where to start without it. I have to say the procedure is not easy. I found using the jack to hold the wheel up worked well cos you can push the tyre hard up against the underside and theres no danger of it falling on your arm while you try to detach it. It does get in the way a bit though. I reckon the most fiddly part is getting the thingy on the end of the cable up through the hole in the wheel. There is no real clearance and it keeps sticking. Edit one day after: Just had a new valve fitted and tyre ready to be put back on the carrier. Turns out if I just keep lowering the carrier there is plenty enough cable to get it right out the back of the van. So no having to support the heavy wheel and this makes fiddling with the thingy so much easier. Thanks anyway cos I wouldn't have known where to start. Now I'm an expert 💪

    • @brianrusby614
      @brianrusby614 9 місяців тому

      if you continue to wind the spare wheel down after it hits the floor, there is enough slack cable to just pull the wheel out from under the van, it makes it really really easy to remove the plate from the spare wheel...just drag the wheel out from under the van theres is plenty of spare cable, then when returning the wheel its easy to put the holding plate back through the hole and simply wind it back in under the van and up into place, the winding mechanism will drag the wheel back under and up, although if you want to give the wheel a push it helps....doing it the way shown on the vid makes it really really difficult.

    Hi Ian. I'm 71. A retired plumber with a bad back lol. It looked a bit difficult for you at only 25? What do you think at my age? Should I give it a go just for a practice? We have a 2019 Elddis 155 with a big overhang at the back. Now, you changed the front wheel and could see the cab jacking point but ours is a coach built, as they call them and the jacking point isn't too obvious. After only 4 years and 21,000 miles the front tyres are half worn and have tiny cracks between the treads. It's just passed its MOT. The tester said the cracks are nothing to worry about - but since then, after scrambling about scaping rust off black brackets and painting them with Hammerite, I noticed the back tyres (still have about 6mm of tread on them) have even bigger and longer splits in them! Now it's not happened overnight so it must have gone through the MOT with these big splits no trouble. They say if they aren't through to the canvas they are ok. But we have a problem. There is a massive 70lbs of pressure in the fronts and a mind blowing 80lbs in the backs. In fact the tyre pressure limit on the sidewall is 80lbs and with cracks in them I shudder to think! Some people with older vans say they've let them down to 60 front and 70 back with a slightly smoother ride and still good handling but if I do that with mine the bloody warning comes on the speedo telling me the tyres are underinflated. Can these be either adjusted or cancelled all together? One bloke reckoned that Elddis put more pressure than's really needed to avoid flatspots during storage. Is this bulls**t or what? I can see a big bill for 4 new tyres looming up but guess what - I won't be changing the buggers! Great video by the way.

    • @tomaitchison8726
      @tomaitchison8726 10 місяців тому

      The pressures you see on the door panel, are for a fully loaded white van man's van. Get your van to a weighbridge and weigh both axles, then send it to the tyre manufacturer and they'll email you back the correct pressures. We do do this with every van and have never had a problem, CV20 and I think my pressures are 55 to 58 front and 58 to 60 rear. The van runs and handles very well along with being comfortable and not feeling every bump..
