Bongo getting hot around town fine on the open road

[Travis]

Hi

Sorry if this has been posted before, I did a search but couldn't find a specific reply.

Have been on a few 100 mile round trips and the Bongo is doing fine, I have noticed however that when I am stuck in jams or driving bumper too bumper, the drivers seat and console gets a little warm and under the brake handle its quite hot. Is this normal?

I have a coolant alarm fitted and I am waiting for the Mason alarms to become available again.

Cheers

Travis

I find they are a little hot to sit in especially on hot days, as you are sitting on top of an engine. There's another thread to have a good read through HERE. It suggests various causes and cures but if everything else is OK, I wouldn't worry.

Fit a scavenger fan over-ride switch. Works for me
