Hi, we’ve only had our VW AutoSleeper a few months but we so enjoy our trips away.

Welcome from Bedfordshire.

Hi. Glad you are enjoying it. Which model do you have? We have very reluctantly just downsized from a 4 berth Ci Cipro to a VW Autosleeper Topaz which feels tiny in comparison but we are determined to get used to it. It's not too bad except for the bed which is such a faff!
We've had a couple of shakedown trips and discovered one of the windows in the high bit is leaking We have tried to fix it by removing the old sealant and injecting new in but it's just as bad. Has anyone with a similar van had this problem?

Try Captain Tolley's Creeping Crack Cure (not a joke!!) It's for boats mainly I think but worked for us. Can't remember but we may have had to do it a couple of times.

We knew about that and have used it today. Fingers crossed!
