Cheers

Thanks for that.. I've joined them as well but its cheque by post so I don't have access to those bits yet either
However, I do know a bit more than 2 hours ago... cos I've been outside playing with it... trying to figure out what a large tank with 'Zu & Auf' is...
Hiya subscription activation is usually pretty much instant am guessing there must be some wee difficulty with it. Occasionally over the weekend there can be a delay. You have 5 free posts at the moment so ask any questions using them till someone sorts you out. Will alert Nukie and Aircool (admin) to your plight.
I would google those terms you have mentioned!1
Meantime welcome to the forum and hope you can get to grips with your van.!!

As far as I know, the only motorhoming Oxford United supporter in Bognor.
There is a tap underneath the van, about half way along, which the vendor said was the grey water waste tap.. and I opened it and got soaked so I assumed she was right!
The bit I'm on about is a lever in the cab, on the passenger side floor (its a LHD) which is labelled 'Entluftung' and two positions 'Zu' and 'Auf'. I removed the cabinet lid which this lever pokes through and there is a tank which is empty, and which has various pipes coming from it, a submersible pump/motor? various electrical wires and also a top hose which looks like its for air and a big screw on filler/inspection cap. Underneath the van coming from this is a piece of yellow hosepipe presumably to drain it! Its not a very big tank at all... not much bigger than you'd used for screenwash.. but its not that because I found that under the bonnet!... It also doesn't look like a factory fitting cos the labels are just stick on - though that might be how they were done originally!
I asked the vendor what it was for and she said even though they#d had the van for 6 or so years, they had no idea what it was for and that they always had left the lever in the 'Zu' position...
I don't want to fill it with anything until I know whats supposed to be in it!
Its getting cold and dark now so I will continue my exploration tomorrow!
but, entluftung in german means VENTILATE zu and auf mean closed and on
Think you are wise not to put liquid near it. also sounds like it is non essential. so you will be able to research it at leisure with out fear of harm to the van.
Enjoy it.
