QUESTION: The trader has apparently sent it to three Rover specialists who cannot find a fault. Having spent £500 (supposedly) on the the problem already they are not willing to throw any more money at it,wont refund, but are telling me to get it diagnosed at my expense.

Answer
I don't believe this story, anyone who had the proper equipment would be able to diagnose the problem as the fault code is almost certainly in the vehicle computer. Ask them for the receipts for the work, saying you will take it back to the same people!
