Re: 2L alternator adjustment bolt

Thanks a lot for that!

Figured out its 999400801 that I need. Searched it up and a genuine one is rather expensive so might try find a flanged nut if I can manage to measure the post it goes onto for the size of it. Fingers crossed :wink:

Re: 2L alternator adjustment bolt

Any clues peeps?

Really want to be able to tighten the belt to get rid of squeak but I can't do anything until I get a new locking nut figured out for it :|

2L alternator adjustment bolt

Hi all, just a quick one for my 2L bongo.

Was trying to adjust the alternator belt tension, but the locking nut is in really bad shape and all marred up. Does anyone know the specs of that nut so I can get a replacement before trying to get the old one off?
Seems like it might be 12mm hex but not ...

Re: Roof vent - do I need one?

Not that familiar with the roof you have, but peronsaly id want a vent if i was cooking in the van, or maybe in summer when it gets kinda warm. Totally up to you though depending on how you use her when out and about really.

Any chance of a picture to better understand where the vent is and how big ...

Re: Stereo wiring mess! Advice

How did it go?
When i replaced my stereo last year i just left all the redundant wires in there since they all had proper connectors on i knew they wouldnt really do any harm.
Having said that if its an easy job tracing and removing, maybe i'll have a go :lol:

Re: Rear window washer

Thanks chaps, had a look in halfrauds and they had pretty much the exact thing for less than 2.00, sorted.
Rear washer still sucks but it does at least work again \:D/

Re: Can you retro fit tailgate handle

Well it all worked out, since all the bits came with the part that i needed. The bracket it connect into already has the hole to take it too.

The only major thing to do was modify the door card to cut space out for it, but even that had a marking on it for the area it needed to go so pretty ...

Rear window washer

Hi all,

Anyone know where i can get a replacement part for the attached? It's the piece that joins the two rubber pipes together.

Either that or a decent idea for a bodge part? :lol:

Re: Well, that’s something I didn’t know….

Nice to know, but having only the 1 key, does kinda make me nervous of locking myself out :lol:

Is there an easy way to disable it? Or failing that, an easy way to get a second key sorted?
Not looked into either yet but i'm sure you chaps know more :?:

Exhaust leak fixing

Hi all,

So, I've noticed that when I stop at lights for a reasonable time there is a noticeable exhaust smell and on investigating I think I've managed to identify that there is a leak at the manifold and down pipe join.
I've looked over the diagram here;

Nice, not too bad then from sound of it.

I found this diagram;

From looking over that, am i right in thinking there should also be a button to push down for the central locking of the rear tailgate? Again i don't ...

Re: Seatbelt removal


The top fixings are just bolted in under the plastic covers ? See the mech diagrams http://www.lushprojects.com/bongopartsmk2/code=5792AB&cat=a2ajra0a&vin=&imgno=.html


Ahh nice, didn't realise those plastic bits would come off nice and easy, i'll have another look then.
