Mini service

Post by zimbobigdog » Mon Aug 04, 2008 10:08 pm

Hi all, I am sure that this has been asked before but I haven't found what I'm after having searched the forums. I'm looking at carrying out the following work on "Gringo" (a 95 4x4 Bongo Friendee 2.5L):
Oil change,
Oil Filter change
Fuel Filter change
Air Filter change
Transmission fluid change
Leisure Battery install

Can anyone tell me where I might find instructions on how to do this? Is there anything I need to be aware of when purchasing the bits?

I am also pretty sure I didn't receive the "jack handle" needed to drop the spare tyre. Would it be somewhere in the vehicle that I have missed? I have the jack and wheel spanner but could not find the tool to drop the spare wheel. I stupidly thought it was part of the kit by the side door when I bought the car. Any ideas?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
zimbobigdog

if you look in the side door as you say in the small cubby you should find the long handle clipped into the roof of the cubby. you cannot see it unless you kneel down and have a look.
Lost without my Bongo.

Thanks folks. Found the long handle this morning. "It's easy when you know how..."
