Re: MOT fail - a little advice needed!

Find yourself a local bongo garage and they'll see you right, but as already posted there are some great bongo parts suppliers on here that will give you advice.

Re: How many miles will you get out of half a tank?

I have a 2.5 4wd auto Ford freda, she does 24mpg around town and on hilly terrain, 27 mpg on country roads, and on a run I've had 30.5mpg @ 60 mph.

Coming back from yorkshire last week on the A1 I returned 29mpg@60mph.

Re: Thirsty

In the members area, which is open to all at the moment there is a topic about how to get more MPG, give it a go.
My 4x4 diesel does anything from 23-30mpg depending on the road and manner of driving.

Re: low temp protection screen wash

I use the Halfords concentrate one and mix it up according to projected temperature. They have deals on it occasionally (mainly in the summer) so I pop in when passing and get a stock in. Never had a problem with it freezing in the container, the big bugbear is the jets freezing up but I've got som...

Re: Flat spots on front tyres

I had flat spots on my 4wd aft 2.5 diesel last year, I changed them for Michelin van tyres and there really good. Don't know the cause though.

Re: water in passenger footwell

Hi,

Get someone to hose the front of the vehicle whilst you have your head in the foot well, you may see where it's coming from.
The heater blower comes through there from the bonnet, make sure that the seal is ok/ screws not loose.

You could try Woodbridge and Rendlesham forest UFO trail. If you have bikes there a great bike course there for the kids.

Re: Battery keeps going flat

That's most kind Daz! I just spoke to them, but they said the Bongo expert had left! I presume they don't just rely on one chap, and the other mechanics would be knowledgable about Bongo's? Johnny Bee (forum member) is a good mate of the bongo expert, he may be able to tell us where he's gone. Very...
