Hi, I have a Rover 75 2.5v6 Conn Se auto face lift 54 plate had from new with 31k miles. Recently suffered from a sun roof water leak which has saturated from passenger carpets. At the weekend it had erratic problems with windows, starting ( immobilizer?) wipers, displays etc and the BCU appears to be dry and no signs of water ingress under the glove box ( removed) nor at the ECU plenum. Have had similar problems as few years back after a boot leak and this rectified after drying out. My question is that is the fault likely to be the BCU or is there other parts that may be affected. Drivers side seems fine and hopefully have fixed the source of the leak ( blocked pipe I think). If the BCU will this dry out? By the way, to get the car to start I have to run it through the gears several times. All this is very odd as the problem only started a few days after the water leak not at the time. I have sent a similar question to the Technozen website link. I dont want to scrap the car as it drives lovely. Thanks for any help, Elaine
