Re: Electrical Issue- complete electrical failiure

To a mere novice it felt like a total electrical failure - not sure what the correct term would be?

Re: White smoke!!

Had bongo checked out by nonspecialist who can't see a prob. Just realized that bongo is using even more fuel than usual. Anyone got a new diagnosis?

On way to cornwall so calling into topshom car sales see if the can help. Fingers crossed x

Re: White smoke!!

I don't think it's steam as there is a smell. Just watched my husband drive off and the smoke continued as he accelerated down the road. Booked into a garage tomorrow.

And yes I do have a 1996 2.5 diesel in white.

If so, how do I run things off it other than the car stereo/lights? After such beautiful weather in SW Wales today I am st...
