Anyone have a problem on their m/h with the plastic flap lifting and flapping whilst driving? Looks like it could be pulled off in the wind.
My dealer tells me its a common flaw and he'll replace it but the new one will very quickly go the same way.
Anybody found a solution and if so how?
(I tried bluetack but its not strong enough)
Otherwise we LOVE our m/h.

We had the same problem on our Adria Izola, was told the same story :Angry:. They did send me a new one & I fitted it, this lasted about a month then started flapping again. When I had it in for the habitation check I told them about it, the guy fixed but said he didn't know how long it would last :RollEyes:. He showed me what to do, use a heat gun on a low setting on the bit on the flap which is meant to hold it & bend it a bit to tighten it up. Do it very carefully or you will melt it, but it just needs a bit of gentle heat to bend it then wait until it cools.

I drove around for ages having to put tape on to hold it. I don't know why the water filler is such a problem, the electrical hook up is a similar flap & this is fine. :RollEyes:
