Re: swb and lwb on an auto
Never heard of that
only ever heard of shot wheel base and long wheel base which are the lengths of the vehical and so can't be changed without an angle grinder and welder.

best just keep it in drive

Re: swb and lwb on an auto
Only ever heard of short wheel base and long wheel base as well - certainly doesn't apply to a Bongo. Sounds like you have a non-standard gear lever.MRS WITNEY wrote:on my stick it has swb and lwb what doese it mean and when would i shift it to those points it is auto

Def sounds after-market...unless it's an optional extra, for when you want it to convert to stretched bongo...

I'm guessing you missed the middle 5 letters out deliberately.

Do you mean S2 & L1? to be honest I wouldn't worry about them unless you're going to be towing, just stick it in D & go.MRS WITNEY wrote:on my stick it has swb and lwb what does it mean and when would i shift it to those points it is auto
You can't polish a turd - but you can roll it in glitter.

Re: swb and lwb on an auto
i'm going to be towing so when would i use those other selection. what gains are there because i guess they did not put them there to fill a space 

Bongo now work later !!!

Get a hold of the owners manual (not the workshop manual!) from the Bongo shop - it explains all.
