V6 belts

Post by Powerslide » Wed Jan 22, 2014 7:05 pm

One of mine has just gone and sounds expensive... It is the one under the drivers seat. What does that belt drive? I can't see much with my torch and I am waiting for the Rac...

Mine's diesel so can't help I'm afraid, but hope you're sorted soon. [-o<

Thanks Bob, the bongo is back at the garage who had just fitted a new alternator.....
Phone call in the morning should be interesting. Fingers crossed.

Great pic Mike, thanks!

Guess I was lucky in more ways than one! Van is all good again after a day in the workshop, phew!!

Also, last night, when I broke down, I was without a phone......(left it in the other car with wife!!), BUT a good Samaritan, (a Bongo owner not in his Bongo) stopped to see if he could help!!

This diamond gent let me use his phone to call my wife and the RAC. I didn't get his name, but he did say he is a member here!

Another example of the great community on here!! Thank you!
