I just found out by my own investigation that if you accidentally break the white plug that goes into the brake pedal sensor switch, you can substitute a BMW one instead.
Rover 75 cable looms/harnesses are rare now, so I thought I was screwed.
But I noticed the switch had BMW moulded on it, so I put the part number into Google, and came back as a BMW brake pedal switch plug, for Rover 75 era Beemers.
I then looked on eBay, and saw two at £20 which I snapped up.
You have to study the pin holes and plug design to check it will fit the sensor.
Fitted mine, works a treat.
Now I drive a Rover 75/BMW hybrid!

Default Evaporator CDTi = KV6?

Hi.

Can anyone confirm or deny if the AC evaporator matrix is the same for the CDTi and the KV6 engines?

Rimmers no longer list them so I can't check the part numbers . . .

Thanks

You need to post this in the main forum as this is meant for giving out known facts. You will get a fast response elsewhere.-----

Cheers Gents.
Sorry to clutter this thread - it occurred to me after that this wasn't the best place.
Thanks for the link macafee. I'll brush up on my German and check that out!

-A

edit: saying that - The section on HVAC doesn't separate V6 & CDTi. Also I wold guess these are LHD part refs and I know this item is handed.
Good to look through though. Cheers.

You do not have to brush up on German, you can select top right, English
