This channel was created to share our travel and walking adventures and occasional idea sharing

As an ex Army Veteran Pappy loves the outdoors. We had been avid tent campers for nearly 20 years, but moved over to a motor-home in preparation for retirement at the end of 2018. After 6 years of happy motor homing we have opted for a more comfortable holiday mode in rental cottages and lodges. We will continue to travel as long as we can.

Thank you Pappy for bringing this issue to my attention, I have recently bought a 2007 Ducato Swift Motorhome and it has the water build up issue in injector valley, I now cover engine with plastic sheeting when parked up and have also reseal wind screen bottom seal and used silicon on gutter under bonnet. Sorry to hear of your costly repair bill, hopefully this issue can be resolved on later models in the future. Thank you again from New Zealand.

Really thanks for that very informative video Pappy. I just checked my 2021 and took off the cover. 2 issues found. Blocked middle water outlet pipe from scuttle down to drivers side wheel hub exit. Got that sorted but then noticed lots of water getting in behind scuttle and windscreen and also wiper spindle. Cleaned and removed the rust and soaked injector area and all the electrical connections with ACF50. Did a temp sealing of the scuttle with a heavy layer of Vaseline and that stopped anymore ingress. Will remove it and do a proper sealing later. Fiat are a disgrace to keep producing Ducato's with this known issue as it can end up costing people thousands in hefty repair bills. Once again thanks from Ireland 👍

Great video and explanation. However this also can happen to Vauxhall Vivaro and Ford Transit even with a cover over the injector / glow plugs. The biggest area of weakness in all these vans is water coming through the scuttle plate at the bottom of the windscreen. Take it off clean out the drains, and remove any rust from under the scuttle plate and reseal with a good quality sealant. Then, if you can get to the injector heads and glow plugs spray them with WD 40 for water dispersant.

Vauxhall Vivaro has the same problem because the scuttle strip leaks, this can be a quick fix but if you have bought a secondhand one the damage is already done. This happens even with the cover over the injectors and glow plugs.

mine never had a cover and my rain water drainage pipe got blocked and the head was under water, i have problem starting it on and off and when it gets wet my electrics go bonkers and wont start at all, i have to get something to soak up the water before i can start it and stop my electrics going crazy, a couple injectors are getting rusty. i'm gonna try and get them out clean and do what ever i can with limited tools and numpty thinking and hope its more reliable at starting

It can bugger the ecu too when the water leaks in, had this with my motorhome, 8k on the clock, started to get starting problems on the first initial start of the day, it ruined my European touring trip, tried everything as we thought it was fuel issues, injector issue or maybe fuel filter or pump and in the end Peugeot done an ecu update, luckily it took otherwise it could of cost a couple of thousand.

Another problem with scuttle drains is the drain on the passenger side,it drains straight onto the gear box linkage.If your gear change is becoming stiff and "clunking" a large dollop of grease solves the problem snd protects the linkage.

With engine cold and in store outside stop water getting on injectors by using dustbin bag over engine,bags are waterproof just remember to remove when engine in use cheap problem solved ,bad design by manufacturer

Thank you. Very helpful. I've seen in a forum the the Firestick remote ontrol doesn't work with an Avtex. We have an Avtex L199 DRS which I think is what you have. Were you using the Avtex remote or the Firestick remote control please? Thanks.

Along the scuttle, where’re water enters, clean surfaces thoroughly and apply black electrical tape. Replace when necessary. lasts a few years.

This has been an ongoing problem with this van since the first van came off the production line in 2007.. absolutely disgraceful that they have not improved the design in 15 years of Production..Its obvious that they don't give a toss about Quality Control. Shame on them. 😡

Probably because the base unit is designed for commercial use, so expected to be used frequently avoiding a buildup of water due to evaporation. Poor designing nevertheless.

Just found your channel and i went outside and checked our motorhome found water and some rust on the injectors so dried it and sealed the scuttle - really grateful that you took the time to do this video thanks very much indeed
