No thank goodness, it was all good ... That was my first panic thought too. I think by their design, that can't happen as the piece ( the little round flap ) is on the "outside" of the vertical shaft that holds it so it can't actually get passed the shaft and then into the inlet manifold. It's not on the inlet side of the vertical shaft thank goodness.

@4WheelingInNSW if you did not find it I would be concerned that it is sitting possibly inhibited from entering the engine by valve clearance but eventually may damage the valve or enter the engine. For piece of mind I would remove the manifold and put magnet telescope into each valve port clean manifold while you in there. Just saying. On the blanking bit if you doing reasonable distances and not short trips it would be fine just don't do the catch can thing I believe that is the big killer.

@@coadyg no the bit came out, I physically had it in my hand which I showed in the video, looks like a brass 20c coin or a washer. It definitely came out so that was one good thing. I do 100 k’s each day to and from work plus all my weekend driving / camping etc so racking up the k’s is no issue. Funny you say about the catch can being bad in the engine because everyone else that I speak to or read about say the catch can saved the engine - stopping all the oily sooty crap getting back in the engine. That’s what I mean, there’s so many conflicting stories on catch cans and blanking EGR’s.

I bought one of those blanking plates when I first bought the ute however after then reading online and researching it a fair bit, it seems that blanking them off can then lead to other engine issues so I never progressed with it. It's a catch 22 with those things.

No, I have not yet mate, but it’s some food for thought. Thanks for commenting and if you haven’t already hit subscribe, please do so.

Glad I inspired you to get out there mate, it's a bloody beautiful spot indeed. Hope you both thoroughly enjoyed it, I know I always do. And that's awesome mate, would love to get more people interacting with the SGC Facebook page, that is Swap Camping Gear Australia facebook.com/SwapCampingGear/ For anyone else, if you have any preloved camping gear you no longer use and want to help, pay it forward to others ... hopefully we can get more people out enjoying this beautiful country of ours. Thanks mate, I appreciate your support and comments. Catch you out on the tracks for sure. 👍

he's a very clever fella indeed 😆😆😆

To be honest, I too did think, initially, they're not cheap however after researching any other products of comparable quality, fit and finish and with the inclusions these come with, they don't seem to badly priced. I wouldn't want to pay that kind of premium price if they were being made very cheaply in the one country that currently produces approx. 40% of the caravans in the Australian market, that's for sure but the South African product seems to be very well built. When you factor in the associated costs to develop it, build it, fit it out and include freight to the other side of the world, I think these are pretty reasonable myself. I know some may compare this up against a much larger van that has more included options, however I think longevity is very important to many people too. And that's where some pricing difference comes in. As you say, they're great for a touring couple, most definitely. Each to their own though and I welcome all feedback so thank you and thanks for tuning in.

Thanks mate 👍

Thanks mate, yeah I was very impressed with it. Great compact unit for a touring couple. Thanks for watching 👍

Thanks mate, appreciate the support and comments. We've got to book in a weekend soon too, I'm getting camp fire withdrawals !! 😆😉👍

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it 👍 yeah I saw some cracker big trout in there last time, when I was there shooting the ASMR video, they’re fast little buggers though. Yeah it’s hard not to vent when I get so frustrated that a minority of idiots can stuff it for the majority. What can you do 🤷‍♂️ Sorry to hear about your staffy mate, sucks losing a best mate. We love staffy’s, they’re the best dogs eh. Thanks again for the support champ

Thanks mate, yeah it sucks eh. I’d rather love and loose than never love that much. He was my best little mate. It’s one of the Outback Interior consoles, picked it up on marketplace … video to follow 😉👍 thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it 👍

No offence taken mate, each to their. Everyone likes and wants something different I guess. Yes they made not be the cheapest out there however I couldn’t argue with the build quality. I like. It to like a Mercedes v a Hyundai i30. Both cars but different quality. And if you look at any other brand of similar build quality in that hybrid / crossover van market, they’re all very similarly priced. There are plenty of cheaper ( and larger ) vans out there however I think the quality may also be significantly cheaper too and their longevity could be questioned. Thanks for watching and for your feedback mate, I sincerely appreciate it, cheers 👍

⁠@@4WheelingInNSWbut they’re not. Mercedes vs Hyundai-they have differences in major components. You do not. You’ve finished off speculating at other vans quality & longevity. Honestly, creating a sealed sleeping unit should not be a difficult task.

That’s the appeal of it though, you’re not lugging around the Buckingham Palace behind your vehicle. They’re large enough to be comfortable yet compact enough to not be a burden to take out, I thought they’re a great little sized van. 👍👍

Thanks mate, glad you like them. And that’s fine mate, each to their own. I just felt being that it was the Anzac weekend and considering how much the Anzac’s have done and given for this country, the least I could do is remember them whilst sitting out there in this beautiful country they paid the ultimate sacrifice to protect for us. Thanks for the feedback mate, I appreciate it and for you watching. Cheers 👍👍

Price wise, it’s pretty well on par with most other brands of comparable quality and style in this class of vans. Yes they’re not cheap cheap but I couldn’t argue with their build quality for the money. 👍

It’s actually a lot bigger on the flesh than what shows on camera. The big advantage with this style or type of van is that it’s not ridiculously oversized. It’s light weight and easy to tow and you’re not dragging a 3 tonne Taj Mahal behind you with every conceivable item out of your house. They’re a great setup for a couple touring the country. Enough room to be comfortable but not more than you need either. 👍

Yeah they’re a very underrated manufacturer as a country. Bit like the Pajero mate, not enough people realise just how how good they are 🙂😉👍

That’s what I like the most about this one Norm, there’s enough room to be comfortable while touring yet not too over the top in size or weight where it feels you’re dragging around an apartment block behind you. Towing some of this huge vans would give me anxiety ! 😰😰

Quality does have a price, but long term it balances out. If you are after budget glasses yes you can have plastic.

@@louiskudlak2256 most of African camper manufacturers I have seen will include full set crockery and cutlery. All of which have proper glasses and cups, not plastic. They are of good quality though. Not cheap.

It’s like anything though, you get what you pay for. Many campers of the same quality are the same sort of money too. There’s a lot of cheaper vans out there, 90% of which are imported from 🇨🇳, however their durability and longevity could be questioned. These things seem very robust and solid. Thanks for watching mate 👍

Yes this one comes with the crockery and cool cutlery set in a tool roll and pretty convenient how it attaches to the van door through sail track. That way they’re always at hand ready to rip into that perfectly cooked steak or garlic prawn surf and turf. 👍👍

Thanks mate 👍 yeah I think they've got a real place in the touring market, great how well equipped they are yet in a quite compact little footprint. Cheers mate and as always, thanks for watching bud.

Yeah I thought the same, great little unit indeed. I was pretty impressed by it too. Thanks for watching

lol look at the price. No ones buying it

Thanks for watching and for the feedback, I'm always interested in what other gear others use out there. I actually grabbed this one purely for boiling water as 99% of my cooking I do on the camp fire. So the extra $100 cost for the bigger brands wasn't worth it for me. I do have another head for my butane cans which will easily sit a kettle or saucepan should the need ever arise however I've not yet ever used it for cooking. Usually when we're out and about and touring the bush, it's the speed of boiling a cuppa that won me over with these little beauties.

G'day mate, thanks for watching. It was just a generic double din eBay special I picked up cheap but the actual head unit was pretty ordinary ... it kept freezing and crashing all the time so I got rid of it and ended up picking up the original Garmin / Suzuki double din from an upgraded model which has all the bells and whistle including Bluetooth, reverse camera etc. The cheap head unit was very poor after a few weeks.

@@4WheelingInNSW so you suggest I buy the original one? Do you know the name exactly? And will I have to solder on the wires too? My grandad gave me his vitara recently so I’m just trying to upgrade whatever I can. I know absolutely nothing about vehicles (22 years old).

Thanks mate, appreciate the kind words. Yeah the first few videos were shot on an iPad with limited audio gear however I’ve since upped the ante somewhat and hopefully you’ll find in the later clips, the audio is much better: thanks bud and I hope you find some of the other clips helpful too.

can't beat a good knife mate at camp. I agree with you, they are a great allrounder. I reckon too, this thing is so sharp, the carrots will peel themselves 🤣🤣 Thanks for watching bud. Hope you received your little goodie in the mail too.😉👍

@4WheelingInNSW thanks mate... Looking forward to receiving it. 🤙🏽

My pleasure, hope you got something from it 👍 I’m wrapt with it mate, bloody love it already. I honestly don’t think you’ll be disappointed, very good value mate. Thanks for watching

Yeah they’re a great bit of gear mate, loving it already 👍 I usually only have a knife on me when camping, handy to have at hand. When I’m not camping, it stays locked away in a safe place. The hoodie was actually a surprise gift from my wife through an online mob 😁 but I’m working on some mate. As soon as I can get a good supply, I’ll let you all know … thanks for the interest mate, I appreciate your support 👍👍

Thanks mate. Appreciate you watching bud 😉👍 really ? never ? I use mine all the time but don’t carry it when not camping, they tend to zap you with a taser otherwise 🤣

😂😂 right’oh mate, the challenge is now set ! 🤣 Thanks for watching bud 🤜🤛

@@4WheelingInNSW 😂

@raynewman4904 Who do you mean ?

Sorry mate it was a typo.​@@4WheelingInNSW

@@raynewman4904fair enough, just wasn’t sure what you meant 😂

Thanks mate, hope you may have got something out of it. Thanks heaps for watching and the kind words 👍

Oh nice one mate, yeah they do a good range of gear ruts for sure 👍 glad you enjoyed it. Cheers mate and thanks for watching and commenting. 👍👍

Oh 100% agree with what you’re saying. I just wish there was more Aussie made options and wherever I can I always try to support them as long as the quality is as good or better for sure. Cheers mate and thanks heaps for watching and commenting 👍

@@4WheelingInNSW A pleasure Grant. One of the reasons I watch you...Ausie made and quality YT!

oh shucks, thanks mate ... you'll cause me to blush if you keep that up 🤣👍

@@4WheelingInNSW No blushing please, we are in Australia! :)

Yeah there’s some grubs in this beautiful world of ours. The knife one should be up next week, wanted to get this one out first. Thanks for tuning in bud 🤜🤛👍

Thanks mate. Yeah they’re a good bit of gear, and when you’re camping without heaps of water, cleaning them up needs to be simple and effective. These are awesome as they’re so hygienic. I’ve got a couple still left in stock too. Cheers mate and thanks for watching. 👍👍

Thanks mate, yeah great little thing this. Saves bending down and picking up the bottle caps that you see thrown all around camp fires / sites everywhere. Thanks for watching 👍👍

Thanks for watching mate, appreciate the support.

Hopefully it may help others out there if stuck out in the bush 👍👍

Thanks mate, hope you enjoy it. Just showing another method of recovery which hopefully may help some others out there 👍👍

🤣🤣 certainly is and the main meal is on the table this morning … Cheers mate
