Cambelt was changed in January 2006 on import to UK at 35,500 miles so done 45,000 miles. Mileage now is 80,000. Going on a trip to the mountains in Norway in July, about 3000 miles, which will be fairly hard going. Would it be wise to have it changed before we go? I would appreciate any advice. ar...

Hi all, I have been a bongo owner for coming up a year now and i am loving every minute of it. But I have a very annoying steering wheel, when the engine is on and I select drive in an idle position my steering wheel vibrates like mad, but if i was to select neutral or park the vibrating stops.

Does anyone know whose 2.0 power plant is in the bongo and how good is the MPG ? Mazda's own...in todays world where engine efficiency is paramount and the limitations of the bongo, = lack of power + poor fuel consumption (27mph ) if you keep your right foot light! sorry, I've got a very good examp...

Hey 8etty. Got an aero kit on my 2000 model. Haven't had any issues with ground clearance. I think they suit lighter coloured ones. Mines white/silver.

Well I believe I take the prize for being the first person to fit a Fiamma F65S awning to a Bongo, without any technical help from anybody (including Fiamma) photos soon to follow, if anyone is interested that is!

I have a 2wd with rare 17" alloys, and I just keep a 15" wheel as spare (i've needed it a few times too - my Bongo has had more punctures than yer average car). Incidentally, do you have the right tools to remove yours. I had to buy a slim socket and extension bar as the standard wheel br...

I would have thought a 15" wheel might be easier / cheaper to come by as long as it as has the same rolling circuference. Sorry Simon, are your talking about a 15" alloy? with a 70 profile tyre, trouble is with alloys the rim width can be wider that the standard 15" steel wheel which...

I've got the rare american style 17" flat faced alloys, although they look great their not readily available, I would like to ditch the standard spare steel wheel 15" (tyre side wall badly cracked) and get a cheap alloy 17" wheel to replace it, anyone had this experience?

These new rules apply to type approval for imports, new V5 registrations, AND requests for change of use.
