Nice, helpful video, thank you. I have been going to Thailand for 20 years, but I will be driving there for the first time in a few days. Taking a 12 Day Rd. trip. The flashing lights here in the US generally means go ahead, or that there is a cop ahead with a speed camera.

Well I think your hand brake test is, nicely put, silly. If your handbrake was worth anything it would lock the wheels. Fix your car then go back on the hill again

Dies ist das erste Video von Dir, über das ich gestolpert bin! Sehr viele neue Informationen für mich! Super, danke dafür!!! Habe mir letzte Woche einen ausgebauten 410 gekauft! Braucht noch etwas Liebe, aber ich finde ihn mega!! Warum hast Du aufgehört Videos zu machen, Deine Videos sind sehr gut gemacht uns sehr informativ! Mir hat dieses Video jetzt schon viel geholfen ich würde auch noch deutlich mehr davon sehen wollen! Was macht Dein T1?

Gratulation zum Kauf von deinem T1 und viel Spass damit :) Irgendwie fehlt uns die Zeit zum Filmen, aber es gibt sicher mal eine Fortsetzung. Bis dahin kannst du gerne mal auf Instagram vorbeischauen (t1overlander), wo wir immer mal wieder Fotos von unseren Reisen posten. Mit dem T1 und unserem Ausbau sind wir jedenfalls absolut zufrieden...

On the side of the seat box on my 310d it says always use first gear when pulling away to avoid premature failure of the clutch . 🤔
@CubeofCars Ай бұрын
@@gerrymulroy2545 I think this is totally right. I also prefer to use first gear for this reason. It's strange that the manual suggests to use second gear. Maybe because Mercedes wasn't happy with the unusual position of first gear left-back and didn't want to get complaints ;)

Hello! Did you ever test the van on its towing capability? I suppose the engine does not have enough power for that..
@CubeofCars Ай бұрын
@@luuuuuudoooooo No, we haven't. But I would also expect that the van lacks power to tow a heavy trailer. But according to the registration papers the van would be allowed to tow a 2000kg trailer... very optimistic ;)

Hi Like your channel, lots of great info! Did you research the engine ( m102.924?)? I’m trying to find some good info, but it’s not easy. I guess an average mileage of 13 l with full conversion and mixed terrain sounds right? Rebuild after 250000 maybe? I have the opportunity to buy the same type of van. No problems with the carburettor or rubber seals that are old?
@CubeofCars Ай бұрын
@@luuuuuudoooooo Hi! We travelled 6000 km to Greece and back and achieved an average of 13,5 l which is ok, especially because we crossed a lot of mountains as well. With 80kmh on the motorway we get below 12 l. 250000km before rebuild should easily be possible, but there will surely be some repairs from time to time...

Hello Mike, my compliments on the great van build! I see you “ground” the MPPT on the minus distribution block. Is this distribution block itself then “grounded” on the chassis of the van? I don’t see that in your wiring diagram.
@CubeofCars 3 ай бұрын
Yes, it is. It's not in the diagram because the minus distribution block is just connected with the minus of the engine's battery. But this battery minus is connected with the chassis as standard Mercedes layout.

@@CubeofCars Thanks for the quick Reply! I understand. Otherwise the (non-isolated) Orion probably would'nt work either. I also see a (yellow/green) earth cable going to the minus distribution block. Is this from the 230v and/or Multiplus? Shouldn't that be a seperate 230v ground point on the chassis, seperate from the 12v chassis ground point?

@@frisovdm6132 That's ground for the 230V FI/LS circuit breaker. I haven't included details of the 230V system in the video, because it's a job for professionals. So I don't wanna give any recommendations how to wire the 230V system :)

Interesting propane cabinet and nice to know about the 100 square cm requirement for the vent. If in an extreme temperature environment I wonder if it might pay to insulate that box. In any case, propane seems like a reasonable choice for cooking fuel as long as there's some good air flow with the outside and CO detectors. I'm just thinking of my build if I should choose do it later in life. Sure would be nice to work remotely, part time or otherwise, from varied, beautiful locations and follow the weather: such as the desert US southwest in winter and cooler places in summer.

Wir hatten eigentlich nie ein Geruchsproblem mit dem Tank und würden es heute wieder so bauen. Aber er ist leider arg klein, auch weil man ihn weder ganz voll noch ganz leer bekommt, also immer nur so 70% effektiv nutzen kann. Wenn du den Platz hast, würde ich einen mindestens doppelt so großen Tank einbauen.
