Anyone know why my mini would be making a low/deep sounding grinding kind of noise (sort of on the middle/right hand side.. can feel it vibrating in the accelerator pedal when I drive..

It's the wheels bearing.. the one that got replaced in my service!! got to take it back.. so much effort!
Turns out the CV boots was missing a tie and the black grease stuff had started coming out of it..

Anyone ever done a k-series to a-series conversion on a rover 100?
Sep 22 2012 07:50 PM

chipmongrel360
mostly because in my experience the k-series has been a terrible engine - overheating issues and blown head gaskets etc...plus I reckon there'd be plenty of room for a well built a-series, 1275 turbo or similar...

The K-Series is a great engine, light and powerful. Fit a new MLS head gasket and cure the overheating h/gasket problem.

If you look after a K-Series it'll be fine, they're only crap because people don't do even the most basic maintinence. The K-series is a much larger unit than an A-Series so theres no reason that it wouldn't fit... it's just a massive step backwards from even the 1.1 OHC engine
