As the ECM was out replaced the pollen filter (the old one was darker than black) Check the plenum drains, and all looking and clean. Fitted back the ECM (thanks Marinabrian ) taking synergy off. Took it for a spin and OMG it's a new car Fitted LED to the interior lights and looked at getting the wiring done for sun visors and dimming mirror.

Well, as I've been led to believe that's about 4000 miles before it's due...

Sorted a coolant leak out and dropped a couple of things deep into the engine bay! Just a standard day :-)

Today I treated my ZT-T to a wash & polymer seal.
Replaced a missing wheel arch inspection cover with one from a scrap 75 I drive past almost every day. Best £4 I've spent on the car yet

Default what I did with my Rover 75 today.

After a good wash leather and vac yesterday, the 75 got it's wheels cleaned. Well scrubbed in fact. The wheel acid equivalent available today was not up to the job! With in ground and burned on brake dust on all wheels, I applied the wheel cleaner and gently encouraged the filth to move with a brillo pad, yep a little gentle rub got all the stuff off. Saving me paying out for a refurb. The wheels were dried and polished up and look great! Not so embarrassed about my car now, also polished out some scratches. Getting sorted out slowly..
