These videos are absolutely the best. My Head Gaskets went, but I was able to rebuild my 42,000 mile 1999 Rover 800 825 KV6 Coupe after watching them (watched many times!!). Many Thanks.
I had the 1.8 vvc K series 160bhp in the ZR. I did love the car, mechanics hated it because of the reliability of head gaskets etc. In the end the Head Gasket didnt blow, a piston did on 77k miles and the car smoked all the way home badly. Will never get another one,although theirs not many of them left!. Ive had a Honda 2 in fact one bottom end wewnt and a Typr R ep3 that kept slipping its timing chain due to worn pulleys. Ford now! and good so far.
And the plastic inlet manifold, single peddle operated throttle body, Sliding knuckle-actuated internal throttle bodies, improved cooling, better component tolerances at manufacture...I reckon the 2 engines are CHALK AND CHEESE!

In Land rover Freelander even good 2.5 V6 good sound when putting foot down in automat great sound from 2.5 V6 engine
116,000 miles and mine stills purrs like a kitten but gas mileage could have been better for 2.5 litter engine.
Mine blew up at 50,000 miles!
Great engine... Mine's in a 99 Sterling

worst engine ever made.
