Hi all
Spend the weekend getting our new to us Elddis Sunquest (Autoquest) 100 (2011 model on a 2012 plate) ready to go away next weekend. Had a play around with all the bits and pieces and everything looks to be working well.
Tested all the taps and the shower and then it ran out of water.
When we picked up the van from the dealers he showed us what to do fill up but just to be on the safe side I had a read of the manual.
It says that I can check the current water level of the inboard 45l fresh water tank. It also recommends that you watch the water tank when filling so it doesn't overfill and that it is located under the side bench seat.
All ready to fill, I connected the filler hose to the tap, dispatched the wife to watch the water tank didn't overflow and was just about to turn on the tap when she says "There's no water tank under the seat" - trying to describe what she should be looking for, she was certain there wasn't anything that looked like a tank only a red plastic box.
So I went into the van to check what was under the seat and I saw....
Yes, where I thought the water tank should be is a wooden tray and the red box has a breakdown warning triangle in it. To the far right of the picture you can see a red and blue water pipe disappearing through the van floor. To the left is the whale pump and stuff and in front is the electric fuse board.
So, I have a handy place to store stuff but where has the water tank gone?
At the other side of the van, one seat has nothing under it and the other has what I think is the water heater and some other blown air pipes.
I struggle to get under the van, but from what I can see there is only a waste water tank - I will try and trace the fresh water drain tap tomorrow, but in the meantime does anyone else have an Autoquest 100 of similar age, where is your water tank? whats under your bench seat? and does anyone know if Elddis offered this as an upgrade?
Cheers
Richard
