Hi to my horror i have just found damp readings in my toilet. I have a bailey ranger 510-4.The damp is on the wall right next to the toilet itself and on the floor. Can anyone help me where the water could be coming from.Thank yous in advance.

Didn't get the joke.
After last service on Pegasus 534, I found sticker attached to the toilet filler saying, "Don't overfill and empty before travelling. Always used to have a bit of water in the reservoir. Don't now. Could this water have leaked if you did the same?
doubt highly its got anything to do with that, its more likely its coming from outside and working its way in, you need to get the damp meter out and watch the thing to see where the higher reading are and figure out the way the water is getting in

If you have travelled with water in the toilet cistern it will have sloshed out and caused damp.
Never travel with water in the cistern.

How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.
its not an open compartment! its sealed unlike that one you have at home, the only way you would have water with a caravan loo is by having water in the toilet bowl
Oh well my local Lunar dealer and then a Coachman dealer both must be wrong then.

We have done hundreds of miles with a bit of water in the flush Never had a problem I would have thought more likely a window seal or awning rail problem..

yep scaremongering! we travel with water in it so if we need to take a break we can use the loo, and its never been a problem in any of our last 5 caravans
Not scaremongering at all margo, facts, just the facts.
Also why would a dealer put a sticker on the system as mentioned in post three. Oh wait don't tell me their scaremongering as well(two words).

If the wall that is damp is on the awning rail side i would bet the rail is leaking at the downward curve.Awnings have a bad habit of putting strain on the rail in a wind with pulling and pushing.
Pretty sure it's not on that side, courtesy of Google images.

If you use pink in toilet flush and it leaked water on floor would be pink.
I would check water to and from washbasin connections twice on two vans I have had to remake drain pipe to angled waste under basin.
