Great that you got there and enjoyed it so much. Makes you realise that owning a Bongo is only half the fun of owning a Bongo - now there's a riddle :lol:

Hope you get the Bongo sorted. We'll help as much as we can.

Last resort - Put a poptop in the A2!

The latest is
They put a fuel pump from a working bongo in and it worked perfect so the relised that the fuel injectors were fualty on the pump so they sent them off to be reconditioned. Put the pump back on fixed oil leak and put air con pump in .
Said bongo was fixed we picked her up fri 27th eve went out in her last night and broke down. she just kept stalling then eventually she would start go for about a mile then cut out again.
We have had enough now. Ringing garage in morning.
So far
£70 to top up oil in gear box
£220 for aircon pump
£1200 for recn injectors and oil leak and a few diesel flushes
:evil: :evil: :evil:
Think we should have the top put on the A2 lol :lol:
We had a great time and so nice meeting everyone.
My birthday tomorrow so goin to have fun fun fun

1st thing - enjoy your Birthday Manda

2nd thing - sorry if its been mentioned already, but are we sure there is no issue with fuel starvation e.g. the banjo filter. I presume the garage thought to check that. It would be a poor do if they said you needed a new injector but had not checked that first
