“Bought this Rover 216 SLi, 1.6 16v with CVT...”

written by viscousgalaxy on 18/07/2010

Bought this Rover 216 SLi, 1.6 16v with CVT transmission. Goes like a dream, was a bt worried first when i couldn't feel the gear changes -then found out that CVT transmissions are seemless and the changes hardly noticeable (mind at reast). The kickdown works very well and very well and very fast if you let it go...The only draw back, and its a niggle more than anything..there is a rattle from a junction between the gearbox and the drive plate. Apparently it is a common niggle, which was replaced under warranty by Rover. Its a small spring that after time strecthes and then vibrates at low rpm. It is not dangerous or can have any effect on the vehicle..just an annoying rattle at tickover. At speed it is not there. Overall, a big thumbs up, smooth driving, comfortable and very economical. Pity they were not still building today...
