IS ROVER 75 obd II COMPLIANT

Hi Everyone

Is my Rover 75 2001 OBD II compliant. I have a Memoscan model U480 which uses the OBD II protocol.
I have plugged it into my car but nothing happens. I have used it on my Rover Streetwise 2004 and it works OK.
Any ideas ?
Cheers

I think 2001 is too early for OBD 2

Hit and miss pre 2004 I think (sure someone will correct me)

My dad has a 2001 model and I have a 2003 it works fine on both, they are diesel however.

if it's petrol yes it's compliant if it's diesel not until 2004

My 03 diesel is compliant, seems to be very hit & miss.

Thanks for replies.

Seems that my 2001 petrol is not OBD II compliant, but if I find different I will post findings

Cheers

All KV6 and K4 cars are OBD II compliant. They had to be in order to legally sell the cars. I don't know what legislation applied to diesels at the time though.

My 1.8 Petrol 2001 tourer is fine with it.

Yes all the petrols are compliant. The ignition needs to be on though, that might be why you arent getting any response.
