Bought an MGZT
 
Picked up my MGZT 180 Tourer today - my my, what a difference to the 75 CDTI saloon !! She's very noisy but I quite like it! Very pleased indeed... What's that switch next to the gearstick with S and E on it??

S = Sports (holds the gears longer (and gets very thirsty)
E = Economy, which it will default to each time you turn her on, even if you were on sport before.
Snowflake is for slippery conditions (usually winter) - sets off in 2nd rather than first to save wheelspin.

Slight oil leak from this pipe at the front driver underside - could be leaking from the pipe or above it. Any ideas?

Have a look at the bottom of the power steering reservoir, one of the crimped on clips can be a little weak and cause a leak, replace the clip with a jubilee clip and it should cure the issue.

They must have had a limp wristed crimper at the factory as all our 75's have suffered from that issue :duh: :D:D:D

Thanks lads haven't had a chance to look at it yet

Not sure I like these bucket seats - feels like my right leg is on the raised bit when my foot is on the accelerator

Bucket Seats
 
Billy

They are often referred to as marmite seats, I'm told.

Personally, I prefer the tourer seats with fantastic lower lumber support :}
