Keep your Go-Pod ready to travel.
What to take to a service, the areas a workshop should inspect and how to keep a useful maintenance record.
Book a proper caravan service.
The Go-Pod service schedule is organised around an annual inspection. Give the workshop the schedule, your Go-Pod’s year and VIN, and the details of any modifications or problems you have noticed.
The 2025 schedule refers to a Go-Pods dealership or NCC-approved workshop. Confirm the current requirements of any warranty you hold and check that the workshop can service your particular equipment.
What the schedule covers.
- Chassis and running gear: coupling, breakaway cable, jockey wheel, chassis, wheels, tyres, suspension, brakes and handbrake.
- 12V and mains systems: lights, battery, connections, protective devices and appliance operation.
- Body and ventilation: shell condition, window and door seals, side vents, pop-top and signs of water ingress.
- Water and interior equipment: pump, taps, valves, pipework and the safe condition of additions or modifications.
This is an overview for arranging a service, not a DIY repair procedure. Ask a qualified technician to carry out electrical, gas, brake and other specialist work.
Make the appointment count.
- Before the visitWrite down faults, intermittent problems and changes made since the last service. Take equipment manuals and previous service records.
- At handoverExplain what is fitted, confirm the scope and agree how the workshop should seek approval for extra work.
- AfterwardsKeep the completed schedule and invoices. Record any advisory work and arrange a date to address it.
Between services, stay observant.
Before travelling, check the condition and operation of the items covered in your towing and hitching instructions. A service does not replace checks before a journey, or attention to a new fault.
