Drop links
um looking for front and rear drop links and A.R.B bushes for a diesel bongo. I've been quoted £48 each for the front, which I think is slightly excessive. Any ideas? Not sure of the quality of the stuff advertised on eBay.

Re: Not starting when cold
it's no problem at all. Ive got a rear conversion which allows both front sears to lift back. I then took all the bolts out of the centre panel between the seats. I found that i didn't have to disconnect the gear lever or hand break, i just manoeuvred the panel towards the passengers seat slightly ...

Re: Not starting when cold
JACKPOT!!! Thanks again for all the advice. Finally got round to taking the glow plugs out last night. Two were u/s!! Changed the lot and it fired up first turn this morning. Phewwww
What's the views on getting an engine temp sensor? I'd like one for my piece of mind.

Re: Not starting when cold
Thanks Hayden.
Lost the coolant through the pin hole as described. Header tank "was not" empty.
I checked the resistance on the glow plugs and they're fine. What I didn't check was if there was any power getting to them. I'll give it a look

Re: Not starting when cold
Coolant was leaking from a pin hole in the larger bore hose that returns the coolant to the top of the radiator

Re: Not starting when cold
Sorry should have said. Glow plugs were replaced about a month ago. Can't say if the gauge moved past the 11 o'clock position. I don't think so. I'm fearing the worst.

Coolant coming from reservoir
I'm scared!!!!!!
Can anyone tell me why, after bringing my 2.5td bongo up to temp on a short run, the coolant wants to bubble and gurgle out if the reservoir when I unscrew the lid
The temp gauge sits at the usual place, just below half and the aftermarket tenp sensor doesn't sound. E dry thing ...
