The Rover 220 of this age, has a drivers air bag and may have a passengers air bag (depending on model specification), they will only deploy in the event of full frontal impact, that is fast enough to be potentially life threatening (around 40-45mph). So in the side impact you mention, the air bags will never deploy.

The timing belt on a Rover 75 2.5 V6 typically needs to be changed every 60,000 to 80,000 miles, or every 5 to 7 years, whichever comes first. It's crucial to replace the timing belt to avoid potential engine damage due to belt failure. The procedure involves removing various components for access, so it's often recommended to have a qualified mechanic perform the job. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific recommendations and intervals for your vehicle.

The thermostat housing on a Rover 216 is typically located near the engine block, at the front of the engine, where the upper radiator hose connects to the engine. It is usually situated near the cylinder head, making it accessible for maintenance. To reach it, you may need to remove some components or hoses that obstruct access. Always refer to the specific service manual for your model for detailed instructions.

unfotunatley u have too break the grille and open the damaged catch by prising it open with a screwdriver, luckily a replacement grille is easy enough to pick up from any breakers yard, as rovers have never been the most reliabley engined cars so scrap yards/breakers are never short of a rover or two

To disable the immobilizer on a Rover Mini, you typically need to locate the immobilizer unit, which is often found under the dashboard or near the ignition system. Disconnecting the battery may reset the system, but this can vary depending on the model year. It's important to consult the vehicle's manual for specific instructions or seek assistance from a professional mechanic, as tampering with the immobilizer can lead to security issues or damage to the vehicle's electrical system. Always ensure that you comply with local laws regarding vehicle modifications.

fuse for the immobiliser which one is it

Left hand side of gearbox. You can get at it by turning the steering wheel full lock, and reaching in behind the back of the left hand front wheel. A squirt or two of contact cleaner/wd40 etc in the connectors should get it going again, or you'll need a 19mm spanner if you need to replace it. It's a 2 minute job, which makes a pleasant change :)

Its in housing where the bottom radiator hose connects.

The code is kept on file with MG Rover and an MG Rover dealer should be able to access it on the 'DISCUS' computer. They may charge you for this and ask for proof of ownership.

There are also websites that will provide you with the code if you give them the serial number from the side of the unit.

Have you checked all the handbooks? You are looking for a 4 digit code...

The clutch cable has proabably broken.

We use green!

I would say it doesn't really matter - but would go for the pink if in doubt.

Each car has a different code. You will have to bring your Rover's chassis no to a Rover or ex Rover dealership and they will supply the code for £20. That's what I was charged anyway!

To remove the interior door panel of a Rover 214 SLI 5-door hatchback, start by carefully prying off any trim pieces or covers that hide screws, typically located near the door handle and armrest. Remove the screws using a screwdriver, then gently lift the door panel away from the door frame, being cautious of any clips that may hold it in place. Disconnect any electrical connectors, such as those for window switches, before fully detaching the panel. Finally, lift the panel upwards to free it from the top edge and set it aside.

The rover Spirit had a top speed of around 2 inches (5 centimeters) per second, which is roughly 0.1 miles per hour (0.16 kilometers per hour).

To turn off the seatbelt light on a Rover 75, ensure that the driver's seatbelt is securely fastened. If the light persists, it may indicate a fault in the seatbelt sensor or wiring. You can also try disconnecting the vehicle's battery for a few minutes to reset the system, but be cautious as this may affect other settings. If the issue continues, consult a professional mechanic for further diagnosis.

I have the same thing with my 220Gsi..

It seems it has nothing to do with the handbrake though.

I suspect it has to do with the level of your steering fluid.

I will check it out and let you know later this week

take of old one put new one on

Some of them include: Daimler Barker 18 Special (Tristan), MG, not sure of model(Tristan), Sunbeam Talbot Alpine Coupe(Tristan), 1937 Austin 7(James), Hillman (not sure of year/model), Austin A40 Devon, Ford Anglia.

If you are absolutely, positively sure that your coolant level is not low......then your heater core could be plugged. Or the control that turns the coolant flow on/off to the heater isn't working. Make sure the control is working, the flush the radiator. Should cure the problem.

I note the relay (part No NCL100040) is called an "ignition and glow plug heater relay". The 75 will usually start if you turn the key before the glow plugs have heated, therefore the glow plugs are probably only needed for cold starts. Glow plugs are not needed when a diesel engine is hot. The "ignition" reference may mean that some other circuit is controlled by this relay (obviously there is no conventional ignition as it is a diesel). FYI The part is also used on the Range Rover TD6 post 2002 An internet search suggest the cam sensor can cause starting problems and fault codes similar to a faulty glow plug relay.

Hi,i have a 2001 rover and the plug is under the dashboard directly under the steering wheel...
