Sounds like the boot lock trying to release the boot lid.
It wasn’t actually. Sounds like there’s some in there trying to get out though 🤣
Sound; probably the exhaust going cold
Weird sound...fuel pump pulled a vacuum on the tank? Is the tank vent open? If it does it again, pull the filler cap. Would also explain stopping for 'no' reason...
That I will definitely check the next time I’m there 🙏
I know it's a four week old video,but I see white smoke (not blue,indicative of oil).You mentioned smell of coolant,yet,no external leaks,one (#4)sparklug wet(?).What was the coolant level before and after the run?You could be looking at a head gasket.And another thing,is the fuel tank breathing ok?Is there any later video about it?Is there a video about the other cars or you're dedicated to Rovers?Please,forgive this borbardment,I've just found out about your channel today.
Head gasket was done 6 months before it was taken off the road in 2019. But just before it was put away the previous owner took it to vacation from Norway to Denmark where the turbo failed and soaked the catalyst and exhaust with oil. Turbo is replaced but catalyst and o2 sensor is permanently damaged. I have never driven this car and the time it’s running on the video is the only time I’ve seen it running since i bought it. Nothing done since as I don’t have time. Parked up in storage until spring arrives. Then I will get more in to it and start the “restoration”!
@@SvennsCarchannel I was not aware of all these things.I just hope,with a little bit of money,will become roadworthy again,so that you can enjoy it.Have a good night ,Svenn.
Seems obvious to check the cylinder compressions while all the spark plugs were out ? HGF always the no.1 suspect on these engines as you know....
Yes i know! I haven’t got a compression tester at the moment. It had the gasket and belt and water pump done by the previous owner about 6 months before it was taken off the road in 2019. It also had a new turbo shortly after as it failed and started pumping the catalyst and exhaust full of oil. So the catalyst and O2 sensor is likely to be defective. But I will make sure the gasket is actually all right. There is by the way no signs of coolant intrusion in to the cylinders.
Was the engine oil okay?
Yes it actually is! It har only been started and moved once since 2019 so I think that’s the reason for the noisy tappets.
K seal or steel seal and all your problems will go away, perhaps 😏.
No i won’t go down that road🙈I will give it a proper service and engine flush and see if it’s just condensation. Head gasket and belt and water pump and it has a new turbocharger the same year it was put in storage. Has only done a few thousand kilometers before storage. The previous owner told me the catalyst was soaked in oil when the turbo failed. So it might be some oil residue in there. If I have to replace the gasket I’m not bothered by that ☺️

I didn't think you would for one minute. I've used k seal once in a rover 25 k series, but only out of desperation to get to my work place , it did work well for 40k until I sold it .
@@neilthorpe3914 I did it on my ZTT and it worked fine for 9 months and 21.000 km and since it’s been sat in storage waiting for full restoration sometime in the future ☺️
