Our Climate and Oil (V6 2002)

From what I have learnt when it comes to climate there are factors to take into consideration that don't seem to be in the Bongo community for our engines. We live in a different temperate zone compared to Japan. Japan can get VERY cold and VERY hot. I used to live in Hong Kong and it is way further...

Contaminated oil (2002 V6)

Hello, I believe a more unscrupulous garage has poured Mono Ethylene Glycol into both my engine and transmission. I use it as a cheap antifreeze along with de-ionized water. I left it in the back and noticed it missing after a supposed timing belt change but thought I'd misplaced it. It may or may n...

Re: V6 transmission (2002) km to mph

Okay, that's good info.
But.. I was assured at the time of import that they didn't chip it..
Also I believe ROMs can be modified going on the same principle that computer ROMs can be but that's more speculation..

V6 transmission (2002) km to mph

Hello all. New to the forum. I believe the change from km to mph when I imported has effected the top rpm gear change. It seems to over rev by about 500/700 before changing up a gear. Can anyone advise on a remap to correct it? Perhaps a second hand unit that has already been modified? Or does this ...
