Oops… I did not drain the fresh water tank during the recent cold period when we had a few consecutive days of around - 7 degrees.

Now water emerges from beneath the tank drain and I suspect (from reading on the forum) the most likely thing is a ruptured ball valve.

Now just hoping I can change the valve without too much hassle but it may be worse.
I will let you all know what I find and what the fix is.

I would have thought a Cali could deal with this by design. Wrong.

Looks like VW can't win - there's loads of complaints from the GC owners because their vans have dumped the water to stop this happening, now we have Ocean owners moaning that it hasn't dumped the water & the system is damaged..........
