The 75 and ZT Owners Club Forums - View Single Post - Replacing Alternator Brushes with Alternator still on the car

This particular Alternator thread started in 2013.

Today in 2020 (Covid-19 time for the historians) I needed to decide on a replacement alternator or regulator replacement or just brushes or... sheesh, you get the idea.

Seven years after this particular thread was started this site has proven to be yet again an INVALUABLE source of information, be it current or from 1997 or indeed 2013 as stated above.

Without this club my car would be crushed and recycled by now.

I am in Australia. The state of Victoria to be more precise.
Here, the last Rover dealer went out of business in 2004-5 and no business has chosen to carry on with the brand.

Less than a handful of mechanics in my state will voluntarily even look at at a Rover.
Sixteen years without a dealer to speak of and a tiny shortlist of mechanics, most of whom are soon to depart this mortal coil describes my situation well.

But here. With this club, I have found not only what I was looking for but so much more. One could not possibly ask for more.

What a club.

Hoorah everyone. Hoorah!
