Arctic road trip in the Knaus Vansation 640 MEG In February 2024, we were once again driven to the far north. We love winter in Scandinavia, although it is sometimes very cold. On this tour, we had several nights with -35 degrees Celsius...that's all we need to say ;-) Overall, it is super warm in the van, everything works. The engine starts easily and driving on icy roads is routine and without major problems thanks to the practice from the last few years. Winter resistance: Unfortunately, all the work on the van did not help...the waste water froze again. This should not actually happen with a heated waste water tank. When we then come across an identical model that does not have these problems, I naturally become uneasy. What could be the reason for this...after all, the workshop assured us that there was no fault. But - the workshop was simply not reliable. After our return, I located the problem myself and fixed it within 2 hours. You can find the video here: • Knaus 640 MEG: Truma heating distribution ... And on the next tour in February 2025, nothing will freeze! Fingers crossed! If you ever want to drive to Scandinavia in winter with your motorhome: I have put together a video with some tips for you here: • Experiences at -34 degrees - Vanlife in... Very important: Good winter tires (not all-weather tires) and chains should definitely be on board. The braking distance on ice and snow makes the difference! Feel free to subscribe here!
