Hope all is well. Due to health issues I have left my Bongo for six weeks without use and starts up sweet as a nut. BUT there was one instance and only one where I left it a week and could not start due to drained battery. Crazy because last year I went on holiday for a few days and left one of the ...

How long have you had a Bongo? I note you joined this forum in Feb this year. I do NOt want to distract you from checking all the obvious especially the scavenging fan as serious problems may result. However, I remember a similar experience the first summer. The latent heat generated by sitting over ...

Yes, rust IS a problem in the rain channel. Was silly enough to buy a New Shape from AVA which had rust here (right hand channel adjacent to windscreen) with the promise that this would be “attended to” before hand-over. Three years later it is still producing liquid rust stains on the inside of the ...

Cannot help I am afraid but can confirm that the Bongo's appetite for batteries seems to be fickle. Last year I found the battery flat on a number of mornings having left Bongo parked for approx 3 - 4 weeks. Earlier this year I went away leaving most of the internal lights on. Bongo started first ...

Tim, Taxiback is right. There are materials which can restore the plastic with skilled polishing/buffing. The challenge will be to find someone to do this at a reasonable price. Depends I guess on how easy it is to source replacements from a breaker.

Mickey B: Just to confirm that the fuel guage is displaying the level all the time and uses no electrical power. And yes, after filling up it can take a full five minutes to confirm that you did not just half fill the tank.
