Rover 200 Petrol 1.4 and 1.6 — Technical Data Sheet AUTO-VOLT N°751
Technical data sheet AUTO-VOLT N°751 (December 1998) covering the Rover 200 Series with 1.4 and 1.6 petrol engines. This service manual details three variants: the 214i (1,396 cc, 8-valve, 75 hp at 5,500 rpm, 11.7 daN.m torque at 2,500 rpm), 214Si/iS (1,396 cc, 16-valve DOHC, 103 hp at 6,000 rpm, 12.7 daN.m at 3,000 rpm), and 216Si Lux (1,589 cc, 111 hp at 6,000 rpm, 14.5 daN.m at 3,000 rpm). All models use the MEMS multi-point injection system controlling both fuel injection and ignition timing. The lubrication section covers the pressure-fed system with crankshaft-end pump, requiring 4.75 L of SAE 10W40 API SG/SH or CCMC G4 oil, with detailed specifications for idle and maximum oil pressure across the operating range and service intervals of 5,000 km then every 20,000 km or annually. Cooling system details include the pressurised closed-circuit architecture, fan control thresholds managed by the engine ECU (single relay without air conditioning, dual bi-speed fans via three relays with air conditioning), and coolant capacity of 5.5 L at 50% antifreeze concentration. The fuel system section documents the submerged electric gear pump operating at 4.1 bar under 16V supply, fuel filter replacement intervals of 80,000 km or 4 years, and pressure regulator settings. Injector specifications include four electromagnetic units fired in pairs with 15–16 ohm resistance. The idle control valve resistance is approximately 9.8 ohms. The ECU connector has 36 pins. Includes complete wiring diagrams, component location drawings, and connector pinout assignments for accurate diagnosis and repair work.
Rover 420 Diesel — Technical Data Sheet AUTO-VOLT N°737
Technical data sheet AUTO-VOLT N°737 (September 1997) covering the Rover 420 Diesel from April 1996 onwards. This service manual documents two versions of the 2-litre L-series engine (1,994 cc)—a 4-cylinder inline transverse unit with aluminium block and head, single overhead camshaft, and 5-bearing cast iron crankshaft. The 420D produces 86 hp at 4,500 rpm with a mechanical Bosch VP21 injection pump; the 420Di, SDi, and SDi Lux variants deliver 105 hp at 4,200 rpm and 21.5 m.kg torque at 2,000 rpm, equipped with Bosch VP37 electronic injection pump controlled by ECU for variable advance and EGR management. Lubrication details cover the crankshaft-driven pressure pump, oil-water heat exchanger, and piston cooling jets, with oil pressure specifications of 0.7 bar at idle and 3.8 bar maximum at 3,000 rpm (at 80°C); capacity is 4.9 litres of SAE 10W40–15W40 CCMC-PD2 grade (Unipart GFE 178 filter) with changes at 1,500 km, then 10,000 km, then 20,000 km intervals. Cooling system details include thermocontact or ECU relay-controlled fan operation—without intercooler engaging at 104°C and disengaging at 94°C, or with intercooler closing at 105°C and opening at 94°C. The injection pump drives on a separate toothed belt from the camshaft (replacement interval 140,000 km) with firing order 1-3-4-2 and idle speeds of 850 ± 50 rpm (VP21) or 800 ± 50 rpm (VP37). Injectors are 5-jet dual-stage Bosch units: injector 1 (MSC 100510) incorporates a needle lift sensor, while injectors 2–4 (MSC 100500) open at 200 bar first stage and 320 bar second stage. Comprehensive wiring diagrams, component locations, and diagnostic connector information are included throughout.
Rover 600 Petrol 2.0 & 2.3 and Turbo Diesel — Technical Data Sheet AUTO-VOLT N°722
Technical data sheet AUTO-VOLT N°722 (April 1996) for the Rover 600 range. Covers all petrol engines—620i (115 hp), 620Si (131 hp), 623Si (158 hp), 620Ti (200 hp turbocharged)—plus the turbodiesel 620Di/SDi/SDi Lux variant (105 hp). This workshop manual provides complete specifications for four-cylinder inline transverse petrol units with aluminium block and head; SOHC configuration on the 2-litre engine, DOHC on 2.3-litre. Cast iron crankshaft runs on five bearings. Lubrication handled by trochoidal pump driven off the crankshaft; oil pressure measured at 80°C shows 0.7 bar at idle, 3.5 bar minimum at 3,000 rpm. Oil capacity 3.8 litres (2000cc) or 4.3 litres (2300cc), spec SAE 10W40–15W50 API SF/SG/SH; service interval every 10,000 km or annually. Timing belt replacement scheduled at 100,000 km or six years with automatic tensioner fitted. Cooling system runs a thermostatic fan; thermostat opens at 76–80°C, fully open at 90°C with 8 mm stroke; capacity 2.7 litres (2000cc) or 3.3 litres (2300cc) using 50% antifreeze coolant. Scheduled coolant replacement at 80,000 km, then every 40,000 km thereafter. Fuel management centres on Honda PGM-FI injection architecture (shared with Honda Accord); ECU located under passenger-side carpet. System includes lambda sensor, MAP pressure sensor, idle control solenoid valve (EACV); injector resistance 1.5–2.5 ohms with ballast resistor pack 5–7 ohms; fuel pressure regulator set 2.5–3 bar. Air filter change interval every 40,000 km or two years. Documentation includes full wiring diagrams, component layout schematics, PGM-FI injection system schematic, and ABS system information.
