Re: Tyre size and Wobble over 65mph
are you getting a knocking sound when turning corners? if you are its your steering ball joints however with your tyres not being the correct size there is a chance someone has changed the tyres and not balanced them properly. check to see if you have weights on the rims of your wheels, if not they ...

Re: Tyre size and Wobble over 65mph
if it is an awd 4x4 then i would put the recommended tyre size on as you can damage your transfer box/diff , also is the wobble and actual movement wobble or is it excessive vibration?

bongo in france
Hi, i've been living in france since nov 2017 and since that time i have been through what i can only describe as an apocolyptic and maddening amount of paper work and waste of life, trying to register the bongo in france.

Re: Sliding door motor issue?
If there's no motor sound at all, it would suggest its not getting power, I'd check the fuse for it first, in the fuse box it is a 15a fuse, on the bottom row of 4 fuses on the left, and if thats ok then i'd be looking into the the door itself, take off the inner panel and it could just be a connect...
