Hi Tony.

I had similar problems with the gear change on my 1998 KV6, after swapping the Jatco box, that sits under the front passenger side seat, the problem was solved.

These are still available, nobody has contacted me via PM to arrange delivery/pickup. They are packaged and ready to go to a new home. If nobody wants to claim them/pay postage they'll go in the bin in the new year. You can always drop them off at my place, on your way home! I'm still doing my best...

Hi Russ

I don't think this one is very slim, it's more likely to be the larger version, the face is 185mm x 102mm, it's 124mm deep.

Hi Darren I was somewhat less polite when my local Rover dealer gave me the quote, it took me two weeks to get over the shock, they quoted me £564.00 to do the job, with parts and labour, the tensioner was £134.00 plus vat, the pulley was £64.00 plus vat. After taking the old tensioner and pulley of...

Hi Russ
