Look what has appeared on top of my windscreen or in it. It's six inch long. What is it and what should I do? I've had the motorhome from new to 11 years old.

Yes, thank you
Yes its delamination, new windscreen time if you want the integrity of the glass to remain, the lamination is there to stop objects and glass shards should something hit the windscreen

Thanks. Having read what you've said, I talked to my insurance windscreen expert I who said will have to be my pocket as it's wear. It'll be cheaper than buyer a new motorhome!

Mistake number one, talking to insurance before anything has happened.

That was a silly thing to do.
A stone chip could have started the delamination.

If you look closely there looks to be a tiny chip at the top of the screen . The sort of chip caused by a small stone. That's caused the screen to delamination. (y) :eek:

Don't worry. I know how to get information and not give anything away. I was trained in that!
Putting it on here in the first place didn't help a lot. There are insurance folks on here you know.

I would try seak and seal, or Captain Tolleys.
Had this happen on my Burstner, applied seak ans seal along the edge. Capillary action drew the liquid in. Mine was only about 30mm. It all but disappeared.

And here’s me all these years thinking everyone of Fun were honest wholesome people🤔 and yet so many Funsters saying you cocked it up and can no longer claim on insurance 😳….😉
