the zip (teeth bit of zip) which is attached to the tent flap has come away from the fastener which is attached to the main tent,ive tried to threads it back through the fastener but this is impossible,hope that explains it though reading it myself it sounds quite confusing

If I've read it right (which I probably haven't lol!) then you could try opening up the fastener bit, placing it round the zip and then using pliers close it again til it grips....I had to do this with one of ours. If I am completely off the mark it might be worth giving this company http://www.lancashiresportsrepairs.co.uk/tent_repairs_awning_repairs.htm

 a ring and see what they suggest. I know that Betterware do a zip repair kit too http://www.betterware.co.uk/zip-repair-kit.html?promotioncode=FROOGLE&gclid=CLHboqvDw7ECFYQKfAodk24ANQ

I have just (yesterday) sent my Vango Tigris enclosed extention off to have one of the zips repaired as it was damaged during a storm. It ripped apart and was not salvageable.

I contacted Vango aftersales Clicky. They use a company called AMG who were very good at arranging the collection of the extension.

I am just waiting to get it back now!!!
