Thanks , for both your posts , I’m pretty sure I don’t have any leaks , I’ve replaced pipes previously, it’s reassuring what you say about the temperature sensor and I suspect/hope that this is the cause , I will replace with genuine, I know what you mean about it being scary to get the fans to come...

Hi Geoff , apologies, it’s a diesel, it’s definitely the radiator fans and not the scavenger fan , the fans do turn off with the ignition, however they come straight back on if I put the ignition back on and don’t start the engine. I’m probably being paranoid , but after my last Bongo had head gaske...

Thanks Geoff, is it likely to be causing my symptoms , turning the fan on but not off ?

Hi guys , my radiator fan is running after a shortish commute , temperature gauge is normal, though I know this is not a great indicator, the bottom hose is cool to touch even though the fans are running, leaving it to idle before I switch the ignition off doesn’t seem to allow them To stop , I chan...

Oh I see , thanks for that

Also when the radiator fan comes only one works , should t...

Hi All , I’m still trying to find why I have power loss on hills , I have been looking at the vacuum valves under the drivers seat , 1996 2,5 diesel , specifically the two together that are connected to the fuel pump , I’ve tested both solenoids and one works and one doesn’t when 12v are supplied , ...

Thanks for the reply , I will give them a call , anyone know if it’s an easy job ?

Hi I have got a leak from the Transfer box (1995 2.5 Diesel 4x4) it is leaking from where the front prop goes in , where can I get replacement seal , and is it something that I can replace with the transfer box in situ , I’m hoping that I just need to remove the front prop . It leaks when cold and i...
