    Hi - bought a hymer 544 in Germany during the summer and have noticed there is water dripping under the van, instead of being collected in the waste water tank. Cant see how to get access to pipes inside the van?? help! Thanks

    Did you check outside under the van first?

    Often the waste water tanks have overflow valves and when the tank is near full they spill/drip water out. It can look a bit alarming but its grand.

    Some boilers have a similar mechanism or have a setting that spills water when the water is close to freezing point (to save the boiler).

    I'd check that your waste tank was empty, then leave the output open, run some taps and check if you have a leak somewhere under the van. If the leak was inside the van you would want to get it sorted asap.

    Enjoy.

    The pipes that go from the sinks to the taank often shrink over time and pull . Sometimes they are connected to the very top of the Hymer tanks , acomplete ball ache to get at without dropping the tank down . You might be lucky and find them on the side instead tho'..
