Rover 75 Technical Data/Log Book Mismatch

Patient&ProudOwner · 2nd April 2016, 13:45

Re Rover 75 CDT Connoisseur 4 dr Saloon Auto yr 2001 Reg.Need help as having trouble with insurance due to tech data mismatch.
DVLA have model only as "75 Connoisseur Auto and cc as 1951"
The VIN is SARRJZLHK2D224722 variant LH version 02K
Am not sure if an intercooler exists but there is no mention of "i" anywhere.
My Owners Handbook shows capacity as 1950 cm3 and so not 1951!
The original Dealer description is Rover 75 2.0 CDT Connoisseur 4dr.
Reg 31.08.2001.
Insurers data base have cc as 1950 and horse power as 116.
As a new member searching the Forum I have found the engine as an M47 85 kW (116ps) and type 204D2.
I need to clarify model, cylinder capacity and provide evidence to DVLA to allow changes to the 2001 registration.
The DVLA may accept the Dealers "stamp" description as "CDT" but help as to correct cc and whether or not an "i" would be appreciated.
Many thanks

All diesel engines in the 75 / ZT have an intercooler, and all have the same CC.

The only difference is ECU mapping.

One Owners Handbook I have shows the diesel as 1950cc, a later one shows 1951cc.

'CDT' & 'CDTi' were just a marketing tool. Some were sold as 'CDT', others as 'CDTi', there is no difference between the two, both had the same engine, although as above, some were 116ps, others mapped to 131ps. Often the 116ps were marketed as 'CDT', the 131ps as 'CDTi'.
