leaky core plugs

[ssc1]

it seems to be one small thing after another , having now replaced the oil pressure sensor and adaptor plug i have noticed that two of the core plugs are leaking a small amount due to corrosion , has anyone replaced these latley , its the two by the starter motor and are they standard rover items , i shall have to stop looking too hard every time i get under the car.....

Bad news I am afraid, the engine needs to come out, to be able to get to them all, powers performance are a great company to deal with, I purchased mine from them, not a lot of money for the parts, but engine out. If one or two have gone, they will all need changing, including the larger ones behind the flywheel, around £30 for parts, but a shed load of work to do them. Good luck.

I'd have thought that after 17 years, the OP will have found a solution!
