Right… Car has been fine for some time now. Drove to work this morning with no problems. Drove home lunchtime; again with no problems. Set off back to work (and I’m beginning to think this was my first mistake), got about a quarter mile, went over a speed bump and the engine cut out. Tried...

Question... I replaced my engine not so long ago and after the work was done the gearbox selector "gates" seemed to be in the wrong places (e.g. you could go from D to N without pressing the button which isn't as useful as you may first think!) Forgive the non-technical description here but I...

Weekend-before-last I was tinkering on the car, it started ok and ran for a while, then I turned her off to do something else and when I came to turn her back on I got a single click and nothing else. All the dashboard lights came up ok, the blowers blew and such, but no ignition. I thought to...

Quick question guys... 1. is it possible/how easy would it be to take an engine/gearbox out of a manual 2200SC and drop it into an auto 2200SC? 2. what problems would you have taking the engine out of a manual 2200SC and bolting it onto the auto gearbox in an auto 2200SC, is it just a...

When I bought my series II it had a black plastic aerial on the roof and although at first this didn't bother me it's now the focus of all my hatred. Fortunately the guy I bought the car from gave me a box full of bits, in which was two chrome aerials. Unfortunately they don't fit; the hole in...

This morning my wife asked me if my exhaust should be sticking up like that and after blushing I realised she was talking about my car. I took a look and sure enough the tail-pipe is pointing at the clouds, tucked up under the rear bumper. I didn't look any further... The really strange thing...

This morning on the drive to work my fuel gauge decided to make like a metronome and flicked between telling me I had half a tank and three-quarters. It did settle down eventually but I was wondering if this was the start of something serious. I have seen the needle boogey about a bit (steep...

Not sure if this shouldn't be in the 'gearbox' section but here goes. When I bought Biscuit the previous owner mentioned an oil leak and sure enough, every week the old girl needs a bit of a top up. I've given everything underneath a bit of a clean and let it settle and the oil appears to be...

Any history on MON 413 P? She was my first P6, 2200SC in white (not a Rover white though, resprayed).
