Has anyone had problems with their water pump due to the cold weather freezing it? We did everything you are advised to do - drained out the whole system during the coldest months - we usually use the van in the winter months but as the weather has been so bad since January, it has been stored outside for the past 3 months apart from a few trips when we have used it just to pick up some large items we bought. The van had only been serviced last October and we used it for a 3 week trip just before Xmas. We had it fixed and was told not to drain down the whole system completely as the small part that had broken was caused by just a small drop of water left in the system that had frozen and caused the part to expand and break. We were also told that the newer vans
( ours is 2009) are fitted with a different kind of pump now that fits outside. Our water pump is fixed inside under the wardrobe cupboard.
