COME ON EVERYONE REALLY NEED SOME ADVICE HERE.

Post by TINCA TINCA » Sat Aug 08, 2009 2:39 pm

Thought I would have had more than TWO replies by now as to other Bongo owner's experiences in the trouble listed below...... Even if you point me in the direction of other posts I have missed.

Have been topping up header tank when Alarm peeps and flashes .... should not have to top up at all if all in order. Bought UV dye and had it checked out at our local garage. NO LEAKS found there. Worrying now as it might be INTERNAL. We were very unfortunate when we bought our BONGO, last August, as within TWO DAYS the head cracked whilst on holiday in Devon! Had to be rescued. Dismay and approximately £1200 later and one year down the line ALMOST TO THE DAY and we are having problems again. Have booked it in for a pressure test next week to eliminate any "normal" leaks that may be apparent. Has anybody else gone down this road (I am sure some of you unfortunate members have). Would really like some re-assurance that we are not back where we started a year ago. Has been mentioned that it might be the Turbo intercooler at fault. Piston trouble!?? Hope you knowledgeable members can maybe give a little hope from experience.
Cheers everyone.

You can't polish a turd - but you can roll it in glitter.
