Hello RVers - Can anyone help me with the name of a reliable/reasonably priced company that sell or can order Winnebago parts? I already know about D****ys, the self appointed Winnebago Dealer near Witney in Oxfordshire. They seem expensive and positively disinterested as I didn't purchase my RV from them Rolling Eyes
Thanks!

Yes moderators - I KNOW I shouldn't mention the other site but PLEASE bare in mind that getting RV spares in the UK can be a right pain and since all the coffufle on this site a few months ago, MOST of the RV crew have moved to the other site so PLEASE be tolerant.


edit = OHHHHHHHH, very clever!


(removed by me - before it kicks off!)


Might be better if you go direct.

Got it. Many thanks Zaskar. Hope I haven't caused any trouble for anyone. It was purely an innocent and relevant question!

There is no secret! The simple way to go to the individual manufacturers and give them your winnebago build number.

My Winnie is two years old and I needed two new rams for the front slide. Dudleys quoted me £605.00 I thought that this seemed excessive and contacted the Kwickee Company in the States.

I was told that the rams were covered under warranty (which was two years) They supplied me FOC and paid to UPS them. I ordered them on the Monday and took delivery on the Thursday.

ANY RV part can be ordered effiecently and quickly direct from the States and you will pay the American retail price!

A couple of RV's back the gearbox went, I was expecting the worst. GM sent me to West Midlands American vehicles and I was delighted to pay £1,200 fitted with a three year warranty! American retail prices are excellent.

PS don't worry about all of the RV owners having FUN there are loads of us here still.

Eddie

There are still a great crowd of RVers on here
Brizzard for future reference we " Star Spangled Spanner " are here and can supply most parts and offer mobile RV repairs.
We have adhered to the non advertising on threads up to date but what the hell at least we are members .

Sorry mods Wink

Ahh Bugga

Sorry Duncan what I meant was:-

Use your Winnebago build number to check that the failed part is not either, still under manufactures warranty or available as a free upgrade, THEN check with Duncan at Star Spangled Spanner, and then, if the part isn't in stock with them, Import the bit yourself Smile

Genuinely it is always worth buliding a good rapport with a specialist in the UK as they will be the people to pull out all the stops when your stuck. It helps even more when the specialist is a fellow member of Motorhome Facts Smile

As far as knowledge there are plenty of us around on motorhome facts that will happily help

I have owned about 11 or 12 Rv's over the last 20 years and my Company has worked on hundreds if not thousands over the same period.

Cheers

Eddie
