Bongo Fury

If a vehicle is manufactured within the EU there is an obligation by manufacturers to make parts available for 10 years. No such obligation exists for vehicles made outside the EU, and increasingly we may find that parts for Bongos & fredas are no longer available. This is starting to happen for early models (95/96) and I will list here any parts we know that are no longer available.

This is very useful info Ian and thanks++

I'm going to be interested in a replacement AFT roof rubber gasket/seal before long. It will be interesting to see if they are still available.

Airco flexible hoses no longer available

Bye bye Torque Converter for diesel autobox

So I'm about to buy another Bongo, but this does hit home that Bongos are a dying breed. Hmmmm...

Really? I thought I heard once it was the same autobox as fitted to London taxis. Urban myth? What's the workaround, short of a complete autobox from a breaker?

We'll just have to strap them up in lock up mode!

Complete fuel pump for 97 Diesel? Forget it!

Don't they just refurbish old ones? What would make this thread really interesting is if a workaround could be posted for each no long available part. Otherwise, peeps might feel a sense of (unjustified?) hopelessness

Yes the trend is/was to use refurbished injector pumps, the price of a new IP would make your wallet cringe..

List updated

Plastic wheel arch trim no longer manufactured, but copies are available on eBay

Aircon O rings added to list. Which could be a hassle.

Really? I'd hoped these might be a standard item and not specific to Bongo? Anyone care / able to comment?

We would need to know the diameter and thickness I guess, along with profile if not circular ?
