What I did with my Rover 75/MG ZT today? - Page 561

I've just dropped mine off to get my ABS sorted so my speedo finally works! Also just bought some "2.0 CDT" torpedoes for it, and last weekend purchased a head unit with sat nav etc from a fellow member. Also purchased some Serpents that I will get refurbed over winter!

Well, I'm just on the train from Dorset to Coventry (via London) tp pick up my '55' plate CDTi Contemporary SE saloon auto. Shall eventually pick her up at about 10pm tonight. She'll be my weekly commute between the Midlands and Dorset so hoping for a bit of comfort for the next few months. My dad has a 51 plate 2.5 V6 Connoisseur that he's had for 11 years and still only has 72K on the clock. Cheers to all.

John in case your not aware the factory temp gauge in the 75 is about useless. it does not move off normal until about 115 degrees it seems. Many with the 4 cyl Petrols have fitted digital gauage that read the actual temp.

Plezier · 4th August 2016, 17:26

Thought you might be aware but best to mention it. It seems many 75/ZT owners are not aware of it.

I use the torque APP and an obdII dongle to monitor coolant temp, alternator output and a few other bits which has an audible alarm if they go outside the parameters I have pre set...

most useful...
