Could be interesting. I may have just wasted some cash - I'll report back assuming the part arrives ok.

Hi Cliff

Ah haaah! I've just seen this thread after posting on "the Frimley" thread.

Mystery solved then Cliff.

We can compare under bonnets when we next meet up!

From memory, early V6's had a higher pressure PAS system which included the pressure switch. I might be wrong but I think the plastic cover was some sort of sound deadener to reduce pump noise ?

Project Drive saw the system changed to lower pressure and both the switch & cover were deleted.

I could be completely wrong of course...

Its a Rover thing. Now you see it. Now you don’t. It is all part of the fun of owning an idiosyncratic vehicle. .

A very kind offer

. Ordered one from Rimmers now though, so hopefully won't need one.

Note to self: must learn to be more patient!
