steering wheel quiver
Hi All,
I've not posted on here for ages which is good news as it means the Bongo has being doing well :)
Anyway I trust all are well
The steering wheel has started quivering - it sort of vibrates a bit when moving - more apparent around 40 mph
Do you reckon this may be tracking or wheel ...

Re: Help! - Van won't start
panic over; should have had more faith in the bongo!, just a flat battery. Someone had left the interior light on and the van hasn't been used for a few days. (eveyone had denied touching the light but I know one perrson who definitly hasn't!)

Help! - Van won't start
Hi All.

It makes a repeated ticking sound - thats it.
I've got my local garage coming round later this afternoon, but I'm not sure now familar with Bongo's they are?

We've had a couple of great weekends in Anglesey and the Lakes in the Bongh\Awning, but the awnign setup never quite looks right.

Re: Servicing the Bongo, what shall I ask my garage to include?
If its an Auto and you're not sure when the gearbox oil was changed, i would get them to change it. It needs to be done aprox every 20K. (its a mega bill if it goes wrong, as i've just found out)
