Sorted, turns out it was the link arm http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MAZDA-BONGO-F ... 2337f6878e

So all's well on the bongo front.

mines the 4.0 straight 6 makes the bongo look frugal, it is however a lot of car for £1000 and wafts nicely on the motorway.

Thanks for the replies , after the bongo next job is sort the anti roll bar links in the jeep grand cherokee.

Anyone who thinks the bongo is bad for mpg should try a jeep! 24mpg doing 65 on motorway.

Hi Anti-roll bar bushes and brackets are available in the Club Shop...Do remember that you always replace both bushes and brackets at the same time Cheers Helen As in nearside and offside? Balls i only ordered 1 bracket/bush set yesterday. Will i be doing any damage using the bongo around town with...

Hi,

Bongos thrown another wobbler, the drivers side anti roll bar bracket has snapped.

Could someone link where i can get a replacement, also is it worth replacing anything else whilst i'm at it like the whole anti roll bar?

Re your comments the garage have so far not shirked any responsibility , they say there is no damage to the head that they bled pressure tested the system on weds and it was fine then road teste...

Hi, Thanks for the reply's i thought i'd give a update.

They seem pretty convinced there is no damage to the engine/head.

Didn't note mileage.

Yes the garage recovered it on a low loader, found a split on the new bottom hose so have ordered another which is due in tomorrow.

Need to check re the fuel leak tomorrow, they haven't made any fuss re picking up/sorting out the bongo.

Update- Garage came to us with the intention of bleeding it on the drive and driving it to there garage, changed there mind and put it on a low loader and took it away. Seemed quite genuine on the phone that they wanted to find out why it had overheated and sort it. Garage phoned, the new bottom ho...

Seemed quite genuine on the phone that they wanted to find out why it had overheated and sort it.

Thanks for the help everyone.

My worry is if the garage sort it how do i know the head hasn't warped and in no time i'll be back to square one.

What sort of checks should i expect the garage to be doing other than pressure testing?

Still down to them I feel ,good luck and keep usosted as to how you get on,mind don't drive until it's rectified Will do . So when i phone them should i just explain the above and wait and see what they offer? What i fear is a catch 22 situation where they say bring it to us and we'll look at it, a...
