- Yes, only three months late, we have finally recorded a review of our 2002 Citroen Berlingo HDi after 15 months and 15,000 miles of ownership. There are many things to like, and some to dislike. We also give an update on the EGR and Turbo Cleaner spray, which was done at least 1200 miles ago.
Berlingo merchandise, and more, can be purchased by visiting HubNut.org which helps support what we do. Thank you.
#berlingo #longtermtest #review
The Berlingo really seems to be very reliable. On a campingsite at the North Sea, here in Germany I had some neighbours, who came with a Berlingo like yours, towing a 1.200 kg caravan. That car still worked properly after 330.000 km. It had of course some issues like injectors, broken coilsprings, clutch and oil leakings. But that man was a mechanic and did all the necessary repairs by himself. Even than he was very satisfied with the car and said it is very reliable and practical. I can understand very good that you like Diesel engines. I also like this lot of torque by low rpm. My 2017 Kia Sorento has a 2.2l 16V - Diesel with 200 HP and 441 Nm Torque, combinated with a 6 gear automatic gearbox. It is really a pleasure towing my caravan with it.
Well done, both of you. I agree completely about fixing sn old car. My 1990 Volvo 240 is at 400,000 miles, and I plan to keep it forever. I just had to do the starter motor and wiper motor. Worth every penny.
The car value versus cost to maintain/repair logic comes up often. In the US, once a car depreciates down to sub 5k.. many people just stop maintaining them. Drive it until it stops. It's dumb and a waste of a usable car. Putting 3k in a 20k car doesn't make it worth any more either. Maintaining and repairing a car is just part of the driving cost. Obviously you have to consider the vehicle itself- if the entire thing is just worn or rusted out, you probably wouldn't pay for a new engine or transmission. I just dropped several grand in a high mileage boring 10 Camry (steering rack, suspension, cam/vvti actuator, timing, brakes). 235k miles. It was my mom's old car.. and it still looks nice inside and out and everything works great interior feels newish surprisingly (very well maintained up until a few years ago/garaged). So it gets repaired and maintained for hopefully another 100k miles of use. We drive lots of highway miles in the states. And even Toyotas need repairs eventually. Odd my dad let all that go since he normally kept everything 100% (old school retired mechanical engineers are like that).., but Covid really kicked their butts, unfortunately. This video had me checking out mobile dot de for used left hand drive early Berlingos. That would make a cool small panel van thing, something the US lacks save for auto transmission eating 1st gen Transit Connects and Nissan NV200s. If you have to fix the rear axle anyways.. might as well lower it. Lol.
Same happens in the UK most older cars end up becoming a tool and don't get looked after much. Cars like Bella and old wagon versions of cars like Volvo's tend to get purchased by people as a cheap van (in the UK majority of vans have a VAT tax added no matter the age). The only problem is when cars like Bella fall into this area of ownership they tend to get ruined due to minimal maintenance and the interiors get ruined as the majority of businesses that use them tend to be small time gardeners who keep petrol, oil mower and other gardening equipment on board.
I'm surprised that is the case as alot of state's don't have an equivalent to the mot test so you can keep an old dog going far longer than we can.
@@HA05GER I mean.. some people do take care of their older cars. Most sort of halfway take care of them which is still abuse imo. "Oil Changes? Why should I have to change it when I add a quart every two weeks?" sigh. Note not having ANY type of an MOT type test here (Tennessee) means lots of cars from other areas (usually up North) with rust/other issues get shipped here for sale. The lack of inspections is very myopic freedom imo.
@@BReal-10EC yeh I don't think lack of Mots is a great idea especially when it comes to serious chassis rust or brake lines they need maintenance and repair. I've got an old car and probably Cust me few hundred a year. I get it serviced at a ford dealer as mate works there so get mates rates and a years breakdown included and anything that needs repairing gets done. But it's a workhorse and it's got few dents I'll chuck everything in the back from garden waste to a sofa. The other day I had 600kg of old car batteries in the back we weighed in for scrap. That is the beauty of an older car you can do pretty much what you like with it. I'm also a mechanical engineer by trade so can do most things that don't require the car being lifted on a ramp.
It's great keeping an old French car running. I've done the same to my 2005 206 estate. It's just so practical and the load area wide compaired to modern even larger estates. New rear axel saved it getting scrapped. 450 pounds 5 years so another 370 with exchanged rear axel is not bad. Doing all my maintenance as I'm a mechanic saves me a tonne of money. So I don't mind running my 206 estate. Funny thing is just this month my dad gave me his 206 estate with 63k miles. Needs an axel I like a new project. My 206 is at 123,500 miles.
Had the use of a 1.4HDi briefly, what a car!
One thing I loved about my berlingo was the tailgate. I n the rain you have a lovely dry place to sit.
One of the most versatile vehicles on the road. Loved my Citroen and Peugeot van variants from 1996 and 2000, espcially the 2.0 HDI in the Pug. That was actually quite nippy.
I totally agree with your reasoning for spending the money on Bella. It makes perfect sense to me. Has there ever been a vehicle that has perfect windscreen wiperage? Probably not.
Lexus LS400 is very good for wiping performance.
@@HubNut Does that mean you have an issue with Betty's wipers. I find mine are great on my AU since i started using raineX.
"ever been a vehicle that has perfect windscreen wiperage? Probably not."
It's strikingly obvious you never had a Citroen Xsara Picasso! 🙂One of the most intelligently designed cheap cars ever! At around 90km/h the windscreen is mostly "self cleaning"! Fruit of it's aerodynamic design!
And when needed, the wipers make for a perfect action also due to good design. Top detail due to it's central action. It's completely and fully adaptable to right or left hand drive! 🙂
I really fail to understand why old diesels are slowly but surely being made unusable by banning them and surcharging them in large parts of the country. Most will naturally die an age related death in the fullness of time anyway but in the interim there is so much life and enjoyment to be had from them. I can't help feeling that we have been had.
It not just older diesel my 2011 euro 5 mk3 ford focus zetec diesel is not ULEZ compliant as well but my brothers Zafira b 1.6 petrol is
Because disesal is so damaging to the environment.
Diesel engines have always been seen as dirty but that's not the case. You can easily run an old diesel engine on waste veggie oil and it smells like the place it came from
Diesel was always flawed. Can't save the planet doing nothing
If you've been behind a polutant emitting diesel, you'll know why. They're bad on particulates and the older ones are worse. Sadly, they're also nearly indestructable
"Italian tune up". That reminds me of my old Mazda Premacy 2.0 turbo. Bought with 32,000 on the clock. A brilliant car that never let me down, towed a heavy coachbuilt caravan without fault, but when I retired, its mileage per annum went right down to one long journey a year and just locals for the rest of the year. The EML came on, so I went to our local independent Japanese vehicle specialist, who always looked after it. He said the DPF was getting blocked. The choice was, he could remove and clean it, at a price, or, I could go the the A46 and blast it in 4th gear from Lincoln by pass to Newark and back, and that`ll clear it out. And it did. At 147,000 miles, it was still going strong, but the dreaded Mazda tin worm killed it off. An occasional thrash did it good.
Long live the Berlingo. My daily driver cost me 600 euros and then 1000 ploughed in , over the past 3 years, and now 100k KM later is still going stronger than ever, The berlingo has aged so well
Driven Berlingos or Partners for the last 12 years and I can say they are damn good vans!
Well done Miss HubNut, she'll do well in life with that amount of dedication. I feel better running an older car that is all mine and yes I've spent money on it but I trust it totally to go anywhere. I can also park it anywhere and know that the flash cars are more appealing than mine to sticky fingers.
Same here my car is worth under £1500 and spent £300 getting through its MOT but it does what I want it to do and that's take me everywhere without breaking down and being nice and simple.
The only time I'll get rid of it's damaged beyond recognition or fire
Love my Berlingo, I’m on my 4th.
You have to experience one to ‘get it’
I never have anxiety parking it anywhere.
It’s perfect for glamping and cycling, economical, surprisingly nippy I wouldn’t be without one.
Mines a 1.6 blue hdi 100 5 speed
Excellent little review of Bella on what its like to own at 15000 miles, still quite keen to get one at some point but the rear suspension issue puts me off somewhat, but i still enjoy looking at them and thinking when will i own one.
To be fair, it took over 170,000 miles and 21 years for it to fail.
The Berlingo is indeed all the car most people need, I was gutted when my dad wrote his off as I wanted it! Perfect vehicle for a mountain biker. Citroen/Peugeot nailed it when they took a very good van and made it a bit more civilised. Built to survive, excellent usage of space, add some creature comforts and you have a legend in the making. They're going to be future classics as they have such a loyal following with owners and so many other people have had good experiences with them.
100% agree with the running a cheaper car rather than buying new and suffering all that depreciation etc. It's why I'm keeping my Fabia II going, 10 years old and 183k with zero issues! Bought it new for £7,700 as a run-out model on a whim and is easily the best (but strangely also the most boring!) car I've ever owned. It's nicknamed the Mighty Skoda as it just carries on going regardless of what life throws at it. Needs some TLC (front brakes, front shocks and possibly some new bushings) but for under £1k it'll be good for another 100k easily. Friends say I should change it but I've made the mistake of ditching a perfectly good car for something newer only to buy a heap of trouble (3 year old Ka for a 1 year old Fiesta, complete waste of money! Loved that Ka) and won't be making the same mistake again!
Speaking of Sussex, my sister's Sussex spaniel became the first of her kind in Finland to pass a simulated water retrieving (fowling) test.
We like Dahgs here !
We've recently become berlingo owners again, well the first was a partner van and can't believe how comfy this one is. Loving the velour and armrests 😂 just taken us to Cambridge from Cumbria and back on less than 1 tank this weekend
Tut, tut, bringing down the tone of the campsite, keep it up. How sensible to have that refuelling interlock, a designer actually spoke to an engineer, very Non French. Good honest review.
That is also the reason why I like my 1982 Ford Transit MK2 so much, you all describe the advantages of an old car.
Every time i drive my 92 Prelude I feel so special. Very comfortable and she does everything I need her to do…including cold a/c! And it’s a car you never see. #find another. My 97 Odyssey is so useful and practical. I have to throw a few hundred dollars every few months, but…eh. My wife’s 05 Chrysler van with 300,000 miles still going strong. My daughter’s 200,000 mile 09 Elantra still doing the job. She just covered 2000 miles this summer going from NC to ME and back. If I’m honest, I’m a little nervous about my son driving back 100 miles home in his 150,000 mile 03 Passat as he called me about the oil pressure warning light having come on at one point today, but…I’m sure it will be fine. He added some oil😮😮😮Do you really get any more piece of mind with a modern car these days? I work for a Honda main dealer. The answer is, no, No you don’t. A newer car is just as like to go wrong…if not more so…than an old car. The late 90’s- early 00’s was peak car IMHO
Bella does look a hugely practical vehicle and I can certainly understand why you love her so much.
@@Timberdoodle197 A bit harsh with that comment buddy
Our caravan always looks like the oldest van when we go on site but it does exactly what we want. Why change?
Perfect justification for bangernomics! 15k miles for a £2k outlay and that ignores the fact that she’s probably still worth £1k. Done this all my life with cars around ten year old mark. At sixty years old I can still count the roadside breakdowns on the fingers of one hand. (That’s tempting fate!).
Amazed by the number of EVs on our last two caravan sessions. 😮
Have always had a soft spot for Bella since first seeing her she’s a cool car and the colour is awesome
Just coming up to 10 years that I've had my 2012 berlingo.
When the time comes I'll be looking for another one.
Currently had our first car (a 2003 Honda CR-V) 18 months and have just hit 15,000 miles. I too past my driving test late (53 years old) Rhonda (our CR-V) cost us £2995 during the 2nd hand prices went through the roof. Had a few niggles at the start £525 bill of which the dealer paid 66% of the cost,then a o2 sensor failed which the dealer paid to have replaced at £175,but 60 miles later the CAT failed at a cost of £495 which we paid. Then no repairs until we decided to splash out on a full set of all season Yokohama’s for her at £500. MOT time this March and just a couple of advisories at £157. Roll on a couple of months during the hot spell we decided to get the AC regassed. Not as easy as we thought,as Rhonda needed a new condenser at £200 but then found out the compressor was seized,which was almost £500 inc a regas and we thought we’d get a new AUX belt done too while they were at it at another £20. So it’s almost cost us £5000 in 18 months = about £70 a week. Yes we could buy a newer car but we’d probably have to go through the same thing again as regards to repairs etc but we love her our CR-V bits and everything we’ve changed will probably outlast the car
This video makes me miss my little mk1 berlingo but I love my mk2 a little bit more I’m so glad you guys are keeping little old Bella going awesome video as always guys 😊👍
Possibly the comfiest car I ever had was/were a couple of pug 405 diesels.50mpg and swallowed the miles.The Xud engines were so smooth by standards of the day.
So agree. Love those engines. 405 very comfy. The old 504 superb.
I loved my 405 but found the seat a bit narrow and I'm not a large person
Loved my 405 2.2HDI estate, now since long gone. I bought it new in NL when car tax rates made sense
You had this for 15 months! Blimey, time flies. Seems only a few months since you got it.
At 15,000 miles, I reckon the rear axle has paid for itself already! Comfy, economical and spacious, those are 3 pretty important attributes, I'm struggling to see what vehicle you could buy that would be in any way better for your purposes. Maybe time to invest in a wheel carrier and sound deadening material? The lack of high-end power could be worn/dirty injectors. I guess they will have been replaced at some time, but like you say, that isn't how diesels are intended to be driven anyway. I wonder how many miles range a Tesla has when pulling a twin axle caravan.
Great vehicles I had two 2003 to 2022 did thousands of miles and never pined for aircon. It was briefly seeing it on Top Gear persuaded me to buy. The made 2002 registered Jan 2003 one did have an exterior spare wheel carrier because a grub stole the wheel.
Mrs Hubnut makes so much sense 👏 😊
Bella is a really good car. Space, accessibility & towers well.
Well Done Bella.
French junk.
Shedding. It's a state of mind, one that I've recently returned to, and I love it. You can park them anywhere and cost buttons to run. I'm converted again.
Bella had teething troubles at first but seems to have got better. I think it's proving to be a great practical family car.
I find diesels benefit from Italian tune ups on a regular basis. I've owned a few, mainly used for the daily commute and always at the end of a day's driving I'd rev it out in 2nd! Always spewed smoke! I thought great, I've cleaned it! Never had any problems and they were all high milers, hubnut worthy cars!
they certainly need it if they have a particulate cleaner.
Goodness me! Looks like you went to Devil's Dyke. I grew up just over your shoulder at the start of the video Ian! Glad to hear Bella has worked out so well for you. There must be a certain satisfaction in the amount you paid for Bella and Bob compared to some of your fellow campers!
If you could run to it I’d find a Terraclean garage and get a full clean on the engine. I had my Jag diesel done and the difference in performance and emissions was amazing. It wasn’t cheap - about £300 including a DPF clean - but worth it.
I have a 2.0 hdi Partner and i absolutely love it! Best car ive had with what it can do. I also find the driving position the best ive experienced!
Hubnut I had a Berlingo behind me this morning , he was trying to race me , guess what happened? The turbo on his van blew up 😂 , 👍 a lesson was learned this day , I was not even breaking the speed limit it was from traffic 🚦 lights up to the 60mph limit 😂 👍
We've had 2 berlingos in the past, one was the van version and both were great. Would probably still have the van but I rear ended a fiat and wrote it off 😢 great comfy and practical cars.
I keep saying to my dad that my mom needs a Berlingo as she seems to fill her little Yaris up with so much junk and takes the dogs out on occasions for a walk somewhere not local.
My Uncle had one of the next generation Berlingo after Bella (MK2) and he always mentions that it was a great family car.
I whole heartedly agree with your justification for owning Bella.
The perfect bangernomics example. A usable older car can be a great way to travel. Also, the cost of parts for more modern cars can be eye watering.
my xsara estate had the rear beam as its downfall ... The issue I had on 2.0hdi was it also needed new cills both sides and clutch was starting to go ....that would have been 2nd clutch so on 250,000 miles it got scrapped few other faults but great car .
I complete agree with your reasoning of maintaining Bella if can spend a sum of money and know that you'll have reliable transportation it is worth it. Personally the lack of A/C would be a deal breaker as I can't stand wind buffeting but if you can put up with I see no reason to not keep driving bella
"Bella and Bob" made me think of Bill and Ben. I was assuming that that reference would be lost on youngsters under 60, but I see they had a re-boot.
My sentiments exactly i agree with you both.
Love my 2.0hdi. Hate hate hate the lack of central locking. Wind down windows I can live with.
Be positive, they're not wind down windows , they're keep fit windows
Absaloutly brilliant video Ian miss hubnut ❤👍 good old Bella brilliant
Just an experiment but looking at your wiper pattern wouldn't it be possible to get a smaller passenger wiper (eg by 2") and get a bigger drivers wiper (same amount eg by 2") since it would sacrifice a bit of passenger side arch but would reduce the triangle of doom.
I think that'd just make the driver's blade hit the passenger one.
Get well soon
I know what you mean, I get about in a 5 door 55 plate Citroen C1 called cee cee and love it, I get about 50 mpg just wish I had aircon myself.
I have a 2011 Berlingo Multispace XTR 1.6 HDI 115bhp which is absolutely great. Overall a much better vehicle than the previous generation.
drove a 1.9 as a company van when it was new. nice to drive, like a Peugeot 306. seen some deisel vans in that company do 400k+ miles at the time. Good vans if serviced properly
Me again. Could you fit a one inch longer driver’s side wiper blade to help with the triangle of doom???
Would need to be a good few inches longer, and it'd then hit the passenger blade.
Italian tuneup certainly did the trick to the Peugeot diesel in my old Rover 400 Tourer - apologies to the car behind me on the A5 near Lichfield who disappeared behind a large cloud of black smoke... Can you do a Hubnut innuendo bingo card? Driver side wiper blade could be 1" longer?
Berlingo rear axles are like Ford Ranger chassis. Its cheaper to fix the one you have, than get another and find out its just as bad. My Ford Ranger (The DeRanged) has had its Ups and Downs. I also own a modern car (Range Rover Evoque), but my Ranger makes me happy and I'd rather drive that.
Fit a handle or strap on the inside of the tailgate to close it so you don't get dirty fingers pulling it down from outside. You could go high tech and fit an electric or hydraulic open and close mechanism but that's one more thing to go wrong. I presume the spare wheel carrier was where the tow bar now is. Factory ones usually went around it or above depending on car so could still be used.
Having covered hundreds of thousands of miles driving buses, coaches and trucks an upright driving position in a car was a welcome bonus when could be obtained, the few sports cars owned excepted, the fun outweighed the discomfort.
It has a strap for closing. I just often forget...
When it comes to spending on a car, firstly when buying one, I would get the best possible example for your budget and once you've had it for a while and it's been reliable then you should pay to keep it going since getting rid and replacing it with another one doesn't mean that one is going to be any better (cost and reliability wise) than just repairing your own one plus once you fix one thing as miss hubnut says, that issue is fixed and shouldn't crop up again for a long while.
We've got a folding camper and do some fishing so the berlingo multispace looks the car for us - don't you laugh when 2 people camp in a double axle 6 berth caravan turn up on site ? Great video cheers ❤❤❤
Hy hubnut.. love your channel.
Big citroën fan here.
Ever considered doing a citroën C3 Picasso review.
Love thats bonkers car..
Tows my caravan perfectly😊
Dutch greetings
Jacob
I know I've said it before but I think you can simply swap the left and right wipers over so the longer one is on the driver's side, which should reduce the deaded triangle. Have you looked into this and if so am I talking nonsense?
I think I've said before that the blades are identical. 😉
I must have missed that@@HubNut
Miss Hubnut brought up a good point could you buy a £2000 Belingo that the rear axle has been repaired and what are Citroen Belingos selling for and how quickly they sell and another bonus they look good
sounds like you got a keeper in Bella! 👍👍
No wonder they hold their value! 🙂
Yea your so right I drove 320 miles from the bottom of cornwall to derbyshire yesterday in my 2009 deisel mazda 6 estate wich I have owned for 8 years over 200k on the clock bearly any problems in 8 years passing tesla after tesla and brand new BMW Mercedes and audi its not needed
12:18 That is brilliant.
Congratulations on the news of the exam results!
I'm looking at one with 175k on clock. It's nice and clean
I think could positively get for 1120 would u consider this a good deal thanks
Hard to say without seeing it. Make sure the rear suspension isn't low.
@HubNut oh yeah looks fine 🙂
Love the berlingo. Iv been after an early one for a while now for a daily. Ended up buying a doblo 😥 now back on the hunt for a berlingo 🤣
Testing the wipers outside the Tates Hyundai garage in Portslade, I noticed.
Great review of Bella 😊👍
if you get an M59 with the 1.6hdi.. better engine, (and I think cheaper road tax bracket ). hydraulic clutch, airbags, optional ABS , (no more sticky load sensing valve) air con, central locking, ) they really did refine them. watch out for heater core leaking on Berlingos, they are a complete dash-out job to replace , did one last month.
Sounds more complicated to me. 😉 A sensible upgrade in many ways though.
I'm with you on the investing in a vehicle as you then know exactly the standard of essential maintenance. My M59 has working air con as I also have a dog, it's lush. No problem with your rear doors? Mine have both broken #becausefrench I now have a two door Berlingo 😅
"Central locking is another thing I really would like.." Yes, up until the first properly cold day when it develops issue with one of the doors not locking itself with the others for some french reason.
Like the berlingo.
Wifes learning to drive at the minute once she passed she may end up with a berlingo.
Easier getting my sons wheelchair in the back thank my S80 and V40
One of the biggest mistakes people make is considering it not worth investing in an old car. One just needs to be careful it there are too many things wrong. I have purchased many cars that could be considered end of life and in all cases as the years go on they become more reliable as I fix everything thats wrong.
There's a good chance that we will swap our 15 year old Peugeot 207SW for one of these in the next five years. i believe the mechanicals are not dissimilar and whilst the SW is a big small car, the Berlingo gives more head room. Maybe a little less aerodynamic (65mpg + is possible with a 90bhp 207sw on a run) but they look to be a good thing all round.
Ian, I dunno if it's me but the drivers wiper looks smaller than the passenger? that might resolve your triangle of doom?
It is you. 😉 they're the same size.
@@HubNut oh haha!
Hinid b interested to know wots on the clock on ur berlingo now please
177k I think. Sadly off the road due to front subframe mount rot.
You pair remind of the 70's play for today nuts in may. Keith and Candice-marie lol
Great report! Bella seems to be in fine fettle.
Welcome to not so sunny Sussex from a Worthing resident. The more I see of Bella, the more I like her. But, as my elderly, sometimes crotchety Saab will tell you, it's a bit of a waste of a good car to just have it parked and motionless 90% of the time. Always an interesting watch when one of the Hubnut channels posts, though. Ta muchly, guvnor (and Ms. Guvnor, obviously. )
daren't get rid of mine. can't see anything local thats newer at a reasonable price.
loads of stuff to put right on mine. the turbo/booster ain't boosting. needs subframe dropping to get to it.
I think the best approach with an older car is to maintain it like a new one and upgrade with planned improvement. Have you considered terraclean or something similar? I have no experience of it, but might be worth a go.
I had a terraclean done on my mk2 golf gti and I felt a difference, definitely more responsive
Oh dear, slight innuendo alert, nowt new there then 😂. Sound practical financial advice about the car market and bet you were having just as much fun as the Tesla people were at a fraction the cost.
Love your shirt Ian, dare one ask where it came from. 😊
Cheers. Found it at Emmaus charity shop in Portslade.
You also have to factor in that post Brexit and Covid new car sales went down so the nearly new 2nd hand cars as well as the older ones are now harder to source too - the whole car world is interdependent on similar factors
I wanted to get my mum one to go on holiday in 😂 unfortunately there were no good ones for sale
for me there is nothing better than van derived cars.... start with something that works, is designed for mile munching & needs to keep a driver happy for days. I'm just sad they killed the roomster
On a slightly different note, groovy shirt maan. I approve 👍
Get your injectors reconditioned when I had my garage I ran a Zx turbo diesel I always had a spare set never had an issue
How does a diesel without a turbo compare?
Dire. See Ian's review of my 1.9d partner quiksilver. Same car but worse engine. So very slow.
Sold it and bought a 2002 2.0 hdi Berlingo. Only 20bhp more but the torque is almost doubled and makes driving a breeze. So much better.
Oh well done! Yeah, it's the torque that transforms the driving experience.
Unfortunately we don't have the multi space in Australia, we have the vans but not like yours Ian, which is a bummer. Aussie Graham.
What a shame!
@@HubNut certainly is, she's a great looking car mate.
Not sure what turbo they have if it's a variable vane one they ate known to stick and loose either too end or bottom end, blocked EGR and a sooted up manifold could be a cause too
Suspect the EGR still isn't closing perfectly and the intake is still clogged.
@@HubNut it's naughty but if block egr off or get it mapped off the ECU, I did it on my Vito van what a difference it's made tbh, still suspect inlet manifold maybe blocked slightly, but runs so much better
another great video has always Ian and miss hubnut and hublets and hubmutts 👍
What exactly goes on the rear axle?
Torsion bars can snap and trailing arm bearings can just wear out.
An older diesel engine if well serviced will just keep on going
Keeping a car on the road that's got a lot of life yet, is a great thing to do hopefully the big spend is over and you can get another 20,000 miles from the old girl.
Good video, I think your Berlingo wipers need swapping sides. See if tod improves 😢
Blades are identical. Swapping arms makes it hilariously bad.
