I got one of those seats a few months ago - I love it! It does just fit using the standard four bolts onto the regular runners, so I doubt there would be a requirement for professional fitting.

I have my old seat if you need one, you can have it free - where are you based? I'm near Edinburgh.

The ...

Thanks, it is the smart controller and does read error codes etc. which is why I knew it had blown out (flame failure). They did rest the exhaust a bit, so I'll see how I fare in winds now.

I think the fuel feed comes from the fuel return, i'm not sure if the flow of fuel down that pipe is maybe ...

Hi,

I recently got an Eberspacher fitted to my Bongo (new Eberspacher, petrol version fitted by a registered dealer).

It seems to work ok, I've had a few instances of it giving errors in high winds (I think the wind is blowing up the exhaust and extinguishing the flame) and it doesn't seem to like ...

Thanks folks, the fluid level looks bang on, I couldn't see a pump belt, but not 100% sure where I am looking, although I don't think it's the power steering cutting in and out - it doesn't seem as severe as that.

I put some grease on the CV steering joint on the column under the dashboard, and ...

Hi folks,

I wonder if you can provide a bit of advice - the other day I noticed that my steering doesn't seem to be smooth. When turning the wheel a significant amount, for example a 90 degree turn, the stiffness experienced whilst turning the wheel changes - i.e. the effort required to turn varies ...

Hopefully I can shed some light after recent experiments in this area!

I have a similar conversion to the one that you mention, except its from Tranzwagon - its very similar with a rear kitchen unit, and the seat boxes and table. I just added a Northstar swivel bench seat too - it's great!

I ...

Thanks Simon, appreciate that.

I swapped just the two sockets for the main 3-point seatbelts over and they are working fine now.

Thanks again!

Hi,

I've just received a swivelling bench seat from Northstar conversions, it's great, I really like the ability to turn bench around but move it back for when I need passengers in the back. However, my seatbelts don't seem to fit in the 'sockets'! Are there different types? It is a rear bench that ...

So I took the plunge and bought a Vango Comfort 10 Grande. Was around £50 in Decathlon.

It fits ok on the drivers side with the chair forward and tilted forward, it does overlap the centre console a little, but seems like it would be fine to sleep on. The 10cm depth takes a lot of the lumps and ...

Hi folks,

I've got a rear conversion (takes up around 50cm) and has a table which drops down on to a couple of seat box cover type seats, which form a bed when the middle row is laid flat.

Has anyone with a similar setup found a decent, thick, self inflating mattress to use in that space? I'm a ...

Hi folks, new Bongo owner (a '97 V6) with a Tranzwagon 'Deluxe Compact' hopefully arriving today! I've also got the seat boxes and table, cupboard and a Smev 9222 coming.

I'll update this with pics and info once I get it installed.
