Hi, looking for a reliable mechanic in Stevenage area Herts. Head gasket needs replacing and minor jobs. Any recommendations please

Apologies for not getting back to you sooner. Haven't found hose yet as workshop is a jungle at the moment. Don't know if you have solved problem but I will still try and locate it.

I sourced mine from van-cafe in the US, but they sent me 2 in error (got a refund). I'll see if I can find it for you.

Thanks Fritz. Told him similar but he seems convinced it's bearings. I'll try and persuade him to do a thorough check first. Thanks again.

Friends van's got a knocking noise from front offside wheel. He thinks it may be bearing.
Is replacing the front wheel bearings a DIY job or do they need a press ?

Sorry this has come too late ( been away ) but got mine from Main Agents, Wayside after spending hours rying to repair it as I assumed it would be a redundant part. Might help someone else tho if they have similar problem.

Had same problem. Sourced it from "van cafe" in states. Cost an arm and a leg for shipping but hose was only about $11. Luckily they had other bits I needed as well so didn't work out too bad.

Thanks for all the advice. Ordered Sikaflex 221 on ebay. Just waiting for delivery now. Thanks again

Thanks for that. Will check it out

Thanks Rob. Any idea where you can get them from ?

The hi top on my van has popped away from the body. No idea which sealant I should use to re-afix it. Any ideas anyone ???
