I note that the site has had an upgrade, but my details must hv been dumped. So had to re-register.

1. No 3 fuse 15A keeps blowing. The list says it serves sensors for camshaft and oxygen, though AA man said something different. He suspects a rat (he saw a few droppings). When I put in a new fuse, car turns over well and runs - but fuse sooner or later fails again. So I'm ...

Hi there,

The upper arms on my rear suspension rusted through on my ZT-T 190 so I dismantled everything and reassembled with new parts. Now the car rumbles and makes metallic noises when I drive...

Everything came off, including the subframe which was shot blasted and repainted.
I bought new upper and lower arms from DMGRS and a new anti-roll ...

The car in question is a Rover 75 1999 2.5 KV6..

The flange on the front exhaust manifold downpipe has 2 bolts and they are wider than the 2 bolts on the corresponding rear flange. I ordered 2 gaskets from DMGRS and they stated they are correct front and rear but the gasket ...

I'm now in the process of re-assembling the rear subframe and arms into the car. One item that has bothered me for a while is 'how to torque' the fixing bolts to the subframe. These are supposed to be done when the car is supported by the wheels (have I got that wrong?)

While I have a deep socket, once the subframe is pulled up to the under body, it doesn’t look like there is ...

Any suggestions greatly appreciated - I have changed the cambelts, camshafts and tappets on ...

A bit of a deep technical question. But maybe someone knows something I don't?
My understaning is that the IPK hardware and firmware is identical for all highline IPKs. The only difference is the contents of the EEPROM. I'm asking because I replaced the EEPROM on a petrol IPK with one for a diesel along with swapping the dial plate. Didn't work properly. My suspicion is I've done something else in the process, probably CAN ...
