    I have followed this very informative thread with interest. Our ZT260 also has a very slight misfire on pickup when cold but on the Autobahn appears ok. It is in the Rover/MG workshops for the time being for other repairs such as the horrible rear window clips leak which allows literally pints of water into the boot wheel well area. I will get back to the forum to report on the cause of the misfire which could well be the coil or wetness around the plugs as already mentioned.

    I know this is from a while ago, but how did you sort the battery light out, i.e. stop it flickering?


    Never mind the power, feel the torque!

    I have bought a new battery and will be fitting today hopefully, as my battery is around 11.5v which is not good. See if that helps solve the problem.
