hi, well it happened, overheated on the motorway,managed to get of pretty quick, and found water pouring out from a metal pipe half way up the van on drivers side.so I called the AA who were there in half hour, but could not fix it, he checked oil etc .and done some kind of test to see if the head was ok. and was sure everything was ok .due to stopping quickly, heres hopeing. my question is .can you renew most of the metal pipes with a rubber heater hose or not. any help would be great. I also got intouch with a mazda dealer one of the members mentioned. to enquire about pipes ,they will get back intouch. :(

If you have no luck locally, I have some of the water pipes in stock here are Bongo Mission Control. But I would need to know the part number.

Hi

You weren't by any chance on the slip road from the M9 to the airport were you? I passed a green Bongo broken down ion the slip earlier this week (I think it was this week, might have been late last week :roll: :roll: ).

Hope you get it sorted - we use Campers Scotland and have found them great so far.
