Hi group,
I've had a T-reg Rover 75 for eighteen faultless months, if you don't count one replacement headlight bulb. About a month ago, I had a little coming together at a roundabout when some bugger in a Punto decided to change lanes at a roundabout at the last second and stand on the anchors. No prizes for guessing who came off worse (light damage to NSF wing and bonnet), but a couple of things have gone wrong since getting the car back from the bodyshop.
1: ABS warning light: The day after getting the car back, the ABS warning light came on. Friends suggested Direct Line's bodyshop might've disturbed something, or there may have been gunk on a sensor. A couple of days later the light went out again......
2: Speedometer: Tonight I went to do the Big Shop at Asda, and suddenly the speedo died - and that ABS warning light came on again.
My questions are:
1: Is there really likely to have been anything damaged during repairs?
2: Are these jobs something I can do meself, and if so, how? I helped the next door neighbour change the speedo cable on his Seat Toledo, which was hell on earth. I read somewhere that later Rovers use some kind of electrical sender for the speedo rather than the usual mechanical cable...
Any help greatly appreciated!
