Roewe

I’ve been away waiting for parts to be custom made in different countries. I’ve decided to go all out with this one of a kind engine project. I have managed to get a bigger intercooler, a bigger aluminium radiator, a bigger gtx28r turbo and forged pistons/rods and added 2 WRX STI injectors.

I have a cheap OBDII code reader and it didn't show up, the service centre was able to delete the codes but it came back on after turning it off and on again.

I did have trouble warming up in the cold weather but after my recent service and had my radiator flushed and new fluid put in after 4 years it's warming up pretty quickly.

Seems to be either when reversing or moving away, but it is concerning, abs failure, tpms failure, stability control. Any further ideas of thing to check, or would it be best to take a trip to a main dealer for diagnostics? The only indication I have from searching the forum, is that it could be a relay under the centre console, but there's no guarantee it is that and I think that would be a job and a half to get at. I wish I'd never driven over that bump.

Yes, it could be a number of things. I had the same problem it comes on an off but mostly on. First they replaced the disc behind the steering wheel and the warning lights were still on, then they checked the relay under the center console and found that was faulty. Just hope it's not the relay as it's a pain pulling the centre console apart, they pulled out the gear knob on an automatic, the handbrake and all the other little bits and pieces.

Because I have an older model (2012) I use one of these. It records front and back and has a bunch of other functions like Bluetooth, 4G, internet explorer, google map and wifi. The map can be updated using your phone as a hotspot.

Is this what you're looking for? I had mine connected to the interior lights by an auto electrician, haven't had any problems at all in 4 years.

I was getting my car serviced today and had a little walk into the showroom where MG and Roewe shared the same area. A new Roewe RX5 SUV was on show and the dash looked pretty hi-tech. I don't know why MG UK doesn't import the Roewes, same company same factory. Like my Roewe 550 is also known as MG 550 in some countries.

It was sputtering on high revs, everything is closing here for the holiday, will have to wait for them to reopen in a few weeks time to get it right.

Back for winter testing unfortunately the car was out of tune, will try again in a few weeks time.

We have the same engine, it's horrible starting the car in cold weather but the summer is fine, it goes up quickly. I will have it checked out during my Xmas holiday nothing ever closes here in fact Xmas is not even a holiday here.
