V6 1997 - dash Heat light

Post by Daydreamer » Sat Mar 29, 2014 7:51 am

Hi guys - been a while since I've been on here hope everyone is OK. Generally Bongo is running well however on the motorway yesterday I noticed this Heat light on the dash illuminated and I'm not sure what it's for (Cat Heater??) and what could have possibly caused this light to illuminate assuming it's not a sensor issue. Temp dial normal, and coolant levels OK with no loss.

Will be moving to Mid Wales in August (near Newtown area) but does anyone know of a good Bongo garage in the vicinity. I've searched but can not find much.

Also another thing I've noticed is once the engine is warm and running when I come to a stop say in traffic with gear box in 'D' and foot on the brake there is a shudder every few seconds from the engine. Never noticed this before either, once in 'P' though the shudder disappears.

Appreciate any help on the above.

Many thanks for that - I couldn't find that under the search function. Big help, thank you.
