Paul In fact, putting 'Flashing' into the Search brings up other incidents (ironically, I'm preapring to deal with a flashing roof not closed microswitch problem but came across your problem!). See: http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5675&highlight=flashing and http://www.igm...

Theres been a thread on here before about curtain behind the drivers seat and how a cheap and simple way is to get a sprung telescopic curtain rail from Woolworths or somewhere, make curtains youself, and just spring the rail and curtains into place when needed, leave them off when not. I've been tr...

Just snuck away from the family Christmas for a quick Bongo. I suspect your flashing light is a false alarm, but its tricky to risk it. I presume you've tried various tricks like disconnecting the battery and reconnecting it again? With luck some of the experienced Bongoers will return to the Forum ...

I'm hoping some Bongo gurus are reading this so can comment: The Owners Manual, in the Section called WARNING LIGHTS on Page 92, shows the coiled wire symbol for two things. One of them is the obvious one i.e. The display light will appear when preheating the engine The other says (quote): Scavengin...

I was reading my owners manual the other day and I thought I saw a reference to flashing glow plug light and what it meant (it has an extra function rather like a flashing 'Hold' light). Have you checked your manual? I'll go and look in mine and get back with anything I find (even if it is nothing -...

I'm thinking of biting the bullet and going to Chassis Clean too. At least the cost of Diesel getting there wont be much - they are 5 mins drive from us! £387 for a Bongo from memory? Very interested to hear how you get on Chris P - post a report when done eh? Before 'n' After sound like a similar q...

I've just recently bought a Bongo after much research, test driving and fretting. In the end I opted for 2WD. If I'd have had to, I'd have accepted a 4WD to get the 'right one'. I did a lot of asking about 2WD vs 4WD before making up my mind, but finally said to myself: Although I'd love to have the...

Woa there Simon - did you say underseal? All the advie I've been getting is not to use underseal as it tends to crack and let moisture creep in underneath and the rusting carries on out of sight. Use waxoil, I've been told, ideally clear waxoil so you can still see what is going on. But I'm no exper...
