many thanks.

Hi,

I have just got a bongo with a tow bar that has two sockets on the back. One white and one black, can anyone shed any light on why it would have two etc?

Cheers

Hi,

Long time since I have been back on the forum (guilty look......)

My Tintop unfortuently has been written off by someone driving into the backend and then drove off without leaving any details, so not too happy about that!!

It was a 2.5TD M reg, I am looking to get another one but am ...

I have recently had all my Glow Plugs changed and ever since the engine noise and normall rattles have now all seemed to have got louder. When I first got back in the trusty steed I thought something else was going wrong.

Is this extra noise down to having much better compression in the engine with ...

Local garage have taken out the motor and they say it has worn bearings! Would this mean new motor? I guess it would.

Any body out there scrapping a bongo with a heater motor available?

Just to let you know that the problem in the end was simply Glow Plugs!!

2 Had Failed
1 was almost gone
1 was hunkey dorey

So either is glow plugs or the relay?...

Sounds very much glowplug related to me but as I've never had glowplug probs myself and am not a mechanic, I can only go by what I've read on here. But if it runs fine after the first episode of the day I reckon you can rule out fuel feed problems. Also, this 'only a problem on the first start of ...

On start up for first time when engine cold (diesel 2.5t) it will start straight away but will struggle to find revs and cough and splutter a little bit with some smoke coming out (not sure of the main colour of this smoke as I am a ikle coloured blind). Either after a min or 2 it will be fine and ...

something similar happened to me, and was easy to sort out.......

If you lift the bonnet there is a large grey intake where the air gets drawn into the fan. This intake thing is held on with little pop-fasteners.

One of my fasteners had come off and got sucked into the intake so every time I ...

Hi Everyone,

When I turn on the heater fan, I get a very horrible griding noise from what I presume is the fan. Any ideas?

Cheers.
