2004 Rover - Austin 75 review from UK and Ireland
"Lamentable Quality Control"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Noisy clutch bearing
Faulty Clutch (squeals when pulling away)
Low speed rattle from under bonnet.
General comments?
My local dealer knew all about the faulty clutch. "We have ten others just like it awaiting replacement". Clutch needs to be replaced, but dealer is unable to obtain the parts.
Low speed rattle is being blamed on faulty engine mountings!!!. These also need replacing.
