I am going to replace the four main coolant hoses soon and give it a flush through. What coolant should i use..red or blue?

The two metal pipes i have are: 15-190 and 15-19X... mine are a little rusty and need doing before i get any leaks appearing.

Is there a lot of dismantling involved to get at these then?


I would like to have a go at doing these but as i said earlier i don't have a lift/ramp and will be doing it ...

I have seen the vids on how to change the coolant and think i will give it a go. I realise how important it is not to get any air pockets etc.

I also have the four main hoses i want to swap over as well as the two metal coolant pipes that run under the driver and passenger seat. How hard is it to ...

I will lift it and see if there is any play anywhere, it sounded like a similar knock before i changed the drop links.

Will investigate further and report back..

I have a knocking sound coming from the front end when driving. It seems to get worse after prolonged driving. I have replaced all four drop links and the rubber bushes also. I have checked and all seems stiff and tight as it should.

I want to replace the coolant in my 2.5td Bongo. What is the recommended type?

Jeebers scanner - where'dya dig that up from. I think its probably over the max towing weight for a Bongo isn't it :lol: :lol: :lol:

But seriously, what an interesting looking unit. Never seen anything like that before :roll:

It came with my Bongo and has barely been used. It isn't that heavy ...

I think i will remove and use it in the awning.

My Bongo is a standard 8 seater with lifting roof. I want to fit a removable kitchen unit that can be fitted and removed with ease as and when i want to use it for weekends away and then back to standard 8 seater.

What are my options? i have seen the unit that sits across the back but this won't ...

I want to remove the inner lift up roof panel as the one fitted in my bongo is split in two.

The hinges appear to bolt under the headlining which looks a pain to get to. Anyone tell me the order of things to remove so that I can swap out this panel for a replacement?

I want to replace the inner lifting roof panel of my Bongo and had a quick look this morning. It appears that the hinges are bolted through the roof and the bolts are under the headlining.

Any tips for removing the headlining and is it a big job to get to these bolts?
