Morning, sifting through paperwork for the new buy, found receipts for the above;

any expected problems?

I also see that there were probs getting pass the emissions on last test August 06. Saw notes from Murrays "reset to factory settings", is this the reference to the ECU?

just in case

coming.

Car very

lively and no real delays in pick up etc.

Any comments, advice appreciated.

Its rubbish, what you need is a Rover MEMS, Curiously I have one on my car and I'll be gald to take the Emerald POS off your hands and sent you the MEMS FOC!....

Seriously though, Shug, Ironside, Lawrence and Robin (Amongst others) know theses little boxes of tricks inside out. They cost about £600 new then they need mapping, but this can be done DIY. Its the number one choice for the K series, reputedly v.easy to tune. You should not have any issues at all. If it can make the Shug mobile run then it'll run anything.... <BG>

The K will expiring first would be my bet!

Don't worry about that bit, just keep and eye on the coolant level, an eye on the temp, an eye on the oil and both eyes on the road

Do that and it'll run forever....
