Re: Rear washer pipe

We've attached an airline ho the pipe under the bonnet and blasted air through before. But if yours won't blast then maybe its kinked somewhere?
Sometimes a motor will make a noise, but still not pump, because the impeller has failed and isnt spinning.

Re: Cabin fabric

Once you get access to it, just clean any loose bits off the back of the fabric, then spray adhesive and smooth the fabric back into place. Lots of helpful videos on YouTube, like this one: https://youtube.com/shorts/OhdGGecX6W4? ... kOQZE58d8V

Re: misfire, not idling right

Common cause is a faulty mass airflow MAF. There are 2 types so you need to match the number sticker on yours.

Re: Glow plug light flashing

Try what Geoff said. 🙂
That broken pipe is unlikely to cause the flashing light.
Common causes of the flashing light: Fuse number 1 (in the fuse box by the drivers knee) can fail.

Re: V6 alternator

Theres a number on a sticker, on your alternator. You might have to remove the alternator to see it. Then you can match an alternator.
Also in the UK you can get alternators refurbished. I dont know if US has this service.

Re: Bongo 2.5TD 3 way cylinder head water pipe corroded

You can use freeze spray on the pipe, to help remove it, twisting it out. When you fit the new 3-way pipe, put sealer on it and tap the pipe fully into place. That's all the way down to the flange on the pipe. Otherwise they can pop off.
