I squinted, as though that would help me hear better. We&#8217;d left Hauterives, <a href=\"http:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/the-ideal-palace-by-postman-cheval-hauterives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">home of the Palais Id\u00e9al<\/a>, and the way in which we gleefully departed the aire may have invited the wrath of the gods, as the noise grew a fraction louder and more insistent with each corner taken.<\/p>\n<p>The construction traffic in the aire had woken us at 7am, after stopping work at 6pm, and we were a tad peeved at being charged \u20ac7.50 to stay in a building site. But wait, what is this we see as we approach the exit? A service gate&#8217;s had the height barrier removed for all those massive trucks full of tarmac? Woo hoo! We were out, scot-free, free as birds!!! Until the **crunch**, **grind** started down the road&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The road was winding through some low hills and orchards, so we had to keep going a while to find somewhere safe to go have a look. Peeking about under the van and in the bonnet, nothing, and when we set off again the noise disappeared, as though willed out of existence. I&#8217;d other things on my mind too, as the upcoming challenge of <a href=\"http:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/running-the-gorges-du-nan-vercours-france\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">running up the Gorges du Nan<\/a> was making me frankly cranky, and as soon as we pulled into the parking space in Cognin-les-Gorges (<a href=\"https:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?q=loc:45.17067,5.41251\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">N45.17067, E5.41251<\/a>), I was changed and off up the hill.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_29254\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29254\" class=\"size-large wp-image-29254\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_112635418_HDR-1024x576-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Free mixed parking in Cognin-les-Gorges\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_112635418_HDR-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_112635418_HDR-1024x576-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_112635418_HDR-1024x576-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_112635418_HDR-1024x576-678x381.jpg 678w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-29254\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Free mixed parking in Cognin-les-Gorges<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_29242\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29242\" class=\"size-large wp-image-29242\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_134223470_HDR-1024x537-1024x537.jpg\" alt=\"The Gorges du Nan, Vercours, France\" width=\"1024\" height=\"537\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_134223470_HDR-1024x537.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_134223470_HDR-1024x537-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_134223470_HDR-1024x537-768x403.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-29242\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Gorges du Nan, Vercors, France<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Back at the van, we plotted satnav to come here where we&#8217;re parked tonight, but the noise was back, and it said otherwise. Pulling over again, another fruitless inspection took place but we knew something was amiss. At this point we could have called out ADAC or even the AA (as we&#8217;ve ended up having two sets of breakdown cover&#8230;) but no, that would be no fun, we&#8217;d sort it ourselves!<\/p>\n<p>Pulling out the TomTom, a few screen prods into the &#8216;Help Me&#8217; section revealed a garage a few km up the road. Noise now coming and going, we drove as slowly as we dared to find a large orchard where the mechanic should be. The next garage selected turned out to actually exist. A helpful fella came over for a look, explaining he was the paint man, and the mechanic wasn&#8217;t there. After a quick inspection he guessed at <i>les freins<\/i> (the brakes) or <i>les roulements de roue<\/i> (the wheel bearings), called another garage up the road to tell them we were coming and gave us the address. That was Garage #1 (I&#8217;m not counting the orchard).<\/p>\n<p>Garage #2 were a helpful, friendly bunch, asking us to drive the van into the garage, jacking the front left wheel up, and re-producing the nasty noise by slowly spinning the wheel. Confirmation: it&#8217;s the <i>roulements<\/i>. They&#8217;re busy, and suggest we head to the Fiat main dealer in Romans-sur-Is\u00e8re. The bill? Nothing. We smile, shake hands, and crunch and grind our way to a nearby car park to decide what to do, as it&#8217;s now late afternoon.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_29258\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29258\" class=\"wp-image-29258 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_161538600_HDR-1024x575-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"Garage #2\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_161538600_HDR-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_161538600_HDR-1024x575-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_161538600_HDR-1024x575-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_161538600_HDR-1024x575-678x381.jpg 678w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-29258\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Garage #2<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_29257\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29257\" class=\"wp-image-29257 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180605_161718531_HDR-1024x576-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Mucking about in Garage #2.

Pulling in, we found ourselves walking out much more quickly than we expected? Why? Was the price too high? The part not available? Nah, we didn&#8217;t even get that far. We asked when they could look at it, making it clear we could wait a few days if necessary, the chap flatly refused to look at it, ever. He was down on mechanics and completely overwhelmed from the looks of him. His receptionist sensed our disappointment and when we asked if there might be another garage who could help, she called the Fiat dealer in Valence, the next big town. 12 days, came the reply, that&#8217;s the earliest they can even look at it. We thanked them and wandered off, a bit dazed.<\/p>\n<p>Outside, the choice of calling ADAC to come rescue us was put off by Ju&#8217;s suggestion we try a garage we could see down the road. Cue Garage #4. These guys, a smaller outfit but big enough to get the van in, sorted us out. After a quick call to Norman at our garage back home for help finding the right part number (we know how tricky this is from trying to <a href=\"http:\/\/ourtour.co.uk\/home\/hymer-b544-front-spring-replacement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">source our front springs<\/a>), we were quoted \u20ac300 and told they&#8217;d have it done that afternoon. Which they did. After arriving at 10am, a McDonalds down the road hosted us for a VERY stretched out 2 hour lunch while the garage was closed, and the rest of the time was spent reading in reception or forays to the nearby Lidl. Come 4pm they (a bit weirdly) sent us both off for a test drive (without paying, and with no form of ID or anything else left), charged us the \u20ac300 they said they would, and off we toddled up a hill to here.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_29260\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-29260\" class=\"size-large wp-image-29260\" src=\"https:\/\/ourtourmedia.s3.eu-central-003.backblazeb2.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/IMG_20180606_094043570_HDR-1024x576-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Garage #4.
