 Glad you got it sorted dazmond, are you still happy with the connect van, and still glad you bought it.
 The reason I ask is because I've got one, had it 2 1/2 years now, T230 LWB 2004, had to get the odd thing fixed
 here and there, but overall I'm very happy with it and think its a great little van.

 Best regards

My little Connect 220 is being fully serviced this month including cambelt, fanbelt, cabin filters etc etc.
I shall miss my black smoke  :'(
I save it for those rare little moments when some idiot wants to drive up my rrse.
I usually change down to second gear and watch the black smoke appear.
Oh well!  :-\

I am about to change my connect drive belt as it is squeaking and driving me mad. Waiting for the weather.
