So, have been running around today and came across a beauty of a doner. Its a v6 auto ES model 3 door. Most parts have already been removed but am only interested in the back half in order to create a towable half hippo. Not keen on keeping the engine as current owner said it has some kind of...

It's not very common that a hippo is up for parts here in Malta, off to see one this afternoon, anybody in need of something in particular? If so please state your intended budget :) P.s. it's a 5 door pre BMW (orange indicators)

I have searched but found nothing similar here (I may have used the wrong terms too) I have noticed recently that when turning a tight turn to the right(like a small roundabout) and keeping the throttle pressed, the passenger rear wheel makes a sound as if it is bouncing or juddering. Has...

Hey all, hope all is well. Long time no speak unfortunately. Finally this week my dream came true and installed a custom stainless roofrack to my 3dr hippo. Still not finished with customisation but fitted it to see the result. Not sure whether to powdercoat black or not. Here's a quick...

Been dangling with a fault these last few weeks. Started out as the battery warning lamp flickering. By coincidence or not both headlamps blew a night after When going about 120kmh the dash would light all lamps and the hippo would take a nose dive. Till now: alternator ok, ECU ok, Wiring...

1. I've been suffering from bad knees for quite a long time now and always wondered what caused it. until I drove the company's ****roen berlingo for a day and went back to the hippo. The pedals on the Hippo are amazingly hard to press and it's what I suspect was causing the issue. Question: is...

Hi All tried the search but could not find anything relevant. I've encountered a problem on a 4 dr 2006 hippo. Basically the window goes up and down normally as usual, the only problem is that it stops about 2/3 inches short from the top leaving it open. The first time this happened I thought...

Morning to all guys. Just discovered some gremlins in the engine. basically when the vacuum from vacuum pump was measured all was ok. Once vacuum goes into 1st pipe into solenoid, vacuum out is very small and not enough to pull actuator arm resulting in no or lack of boost and power. Anyone...

Hey all! back after quite a long while, project is now ready so have some free time. Meanwhile hippo has been diagnosed with imminent clutch failure....and thrust bearing etc. Am trying to get the pounds together for the big service, and maybe a remap

Was just speaking to myself and thought. has anyone ever tried fitting air suspensions to a hippo? would it be a nightmare?

Just came across this a couple of days ago, thought it would interest some on here. I'd buy it but it if i was over in UK https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=390431724393603&set=a.271414172962026.44347.270643123039131&type=1&theater

I have searched the search option yes :P Has anyone had any problems when leaving the door open for a long time since it is quite heavy? We are off to a camping trip and the car is part of the tent. Maybe i should put a transmission jack under the door to relieve the weight?

I'm a fan of southpark, and this episode really reminded me of southpark Updated: Police looking for two men following Marsa hold-up - timesofmalta.com You steel a hippo which in malta gets about €12000 easy to make a €1500 hold up, then, torch it

I've tried search and found nothing. I've been noticing lately that when idling [at about 800rpm] the engine sometime increases revs by about 100rpm for a second and drops again. Any help please?

I've been surfin' Ebay and got across these: Land Rover Freelander 2 Button Conversion Folding FOB Remote Key Shell case | eBay now I know that it is just for aesthetics but it's more convenient having 1 key for all rather than a big knife-like key and a fob. Has anyone tried them or...

Tried a search but turned nothing. I'm having problems with the sidelamps. I've had the hippo for almost 9 months now and changed almost a set of sidelamp bulb every month, various brands etc BUT always led. Now I am starting to suspect something is wrong from my end. Any help please? maybe...
