Hi Bob
Did you never get the B&G system working? That's a shame. Have you tried speaking to Kevin at the MG Rover Repair Centre in Wickford?
Anyway, you are on the list.

I will contact people via private message when they are ready. Payment will probably be via PayPal, despite their pesky fees!

Sundance, this is a very similar solution to mine. The sensor I use is much cheaper though. Long-term reliability is not tested yet as, like you, I only fitted it this summer. It works nicely so far - when the coolant level drops a bit it starts chirping on hard gravitational effects (cornering/braking etc). On a disastrous leak, all hell will break loose!

Yes, I tried Kevin (who did a great job on my other problems) but his conclusion was that my TF did not have the wiring to be able to fit the sensor etc that I had.
So, thanks for putting me on the list, look forward to heating from you when you are ready.

It needed a bit of modification but seems to work ok.
There are details on here somewhere.

Hi Kieth. Sure, no problem. You are on the list. I'll be in touch once the first batch is ready.
