Hi
That's great stuff,what was your mates opinion on the Judder that you are getting when the engine is switched off.

Cheers..

Your judder and my judder/thunk are probably different but I may as well mention here that I recently had a new tailgate and as the seals are new I have to really slam it to get it to shut fully.

Until I got the hang of this, I had horrible noise which sounded like some horribly terminal engine thing. Unlikely to be your problem, but other members might also read this.

Hi All ( again )

My mate at the garage just said it judders because your arse is sitting on a big lump of 2.5 ! and his young lad opened the passenger seat and said F****Ing hell look at the size of that turbo !
:lol: well it was an education !

but i really love the Bongo ( Freda ) P.s any snobery about having a Ford Freda and not a Bongo ?

Some Mazda owners may be a bit jealous of the coveted blue oval... But they can do the same as me and disguise the Mazda connection by removing the mazda decals/badges and replacing with Ford badges :D

Hi

I also notice this sometimes, though it seems to be worse when I have used some (no more than 12 liters) of veg oil in the diesel, less judder on pure diesel. As a small experiment I put in £20 of higher octane BP diesel last week (£1.51 a litre). Van started very smooth and less judder on shut down also was quieter and smoother whilst driving. I know it's really expensive but interesting to see the difference

I use that Shell V-Power stuff mostly. Costs 5% more but burns cleaner & gives 10%(ish) better MPG.

Worth a shot from time to time . . . .

Its just when we viewed the van we had the choice of 2 ( 1 bongo, 1 Freda ) the Freda was the better of the two but we really wanted the Bongo name ! but ive not seen any other Freda on the road since we bought it 4 weeks back ? 8)

I'm with you there Nic... My other motor is a 2.0TDCI Focus...To say it isn't exactly slow sounds about right. Talk about TORQUE! :shock: :wink:
