    96 2.5 Diesel Auto Issue

    My thoughts exactly. If the 3k rpm problem is the only issue then why hasn't the owner MOT'd it? Shame as it was priced right for me. I don't mind something that needs a little work. But only if I know what it needs and therefore have an idea of cost and how long it would take me to do it.

    96 2.5 Diesel Auto Issue

    Just a quick update. Have had an email from the seller and the MOT is out, he doesn't say when. The tax is also out and on closer inspection of the pics it looks to have been running out late 2012 in those. Am really not sure about buying a car with a known issue and no MOT. Especially as there...

    96 2.5 Diesel Auto Issue

    Have been stung before, but not for a long time. I know it won't be perfect, after all it is 17 years old and I know photos always make them look better than they are.

    96 2.5 Diesel Auto Issue

    Saint - the seller is wanting under £1k for it and I would hope to get it for around £800. defender - I'll check that out with him. He hasn't told me a great deal about the car at all. He's sent me some pics, where it looks in very good condition inside and out (don't they always) and he's told...

    Thanks again Saint. The MAP sensor causes very few problems on the Rover, it's the MAF that causes most of the issues on that. Very similar issues to what the P38 has, limiting revs etc. That's why I came on here to investigate, to find the MAF seems to have very little effect on these 6...

    96 2.5 Diesel Auto Issue

    Thanks Saint I have some experience with BMW diesel engines, having owned and worked on 3 Rover 75 CDT's. However the M47 engine seems to be very different in how it operates compared to the 6 cylinder unit in a P38. I would have thought any of the items you have listed would not lead to such...

    96 2.5 Diesel Auto Issue

    It's been a while since I've been on here, having had to change to far more economical motoring for a while. Just a quick question regarding a Rangie I am having a look at. The car seems fine except that it won't rev past around 3000rpm. I have had a good search and read around on here so my...
