Whilst clearing out front seat storage area I have just found a damp patch!!!!! We've had our Triton 430GT from new in 2006. The damp spot is where the inner wall meets with where the gas locker fits into the front of the 'van. Anyone any ideas of cause/sourse of water ingress & repair advise please.


Thanks

Mark,
back in 2012? we were travelling back from France, the rain so heavy that the van dissapeared in the spray behind. Next day after getting home I emptied the front base lockers of our 310 and found the wine boxes and the floor wet. I unscrewed the front cabinet work and discovered the aluminium trim around the back of the gas locker had not been sealed correctly. I dried it out, cleaned it down and sealed it all with Geocel Trade Mate Roofers Seal Lead Grey from Wickes. https://www.screwfix.com/p/geocel-trade-...rey-310ml/72630 This solved the problem.
