Just spoke to my mechanic and he says he will need to check if it is a keyless crankshaft pulley or not as he says it would need pinned up with a timing kit which he does not have so would anyone know if it is keyless or not? Thanks

Hi Kerr and Charlie1875. First off apologies for the late reply but i had notifications turned off and did not realise you guys had commented so apologies for that. I asked my mechanic today if he checked the crankshaft oil seal as he initially thought that might be the culprit but he says it...

Hi all. Bit of a mystery with my RCZ. So recently i noticed a puddle of oil on my driveway. I left the car in to a local garage and they changed the Rocker Cover Gasket. I picked the car up and next day noticed another puddle of oil on my driveway so obviously not the Rocker Gasket. I took the...

Hi. I was just reading this and thought i would add my oil leak issue. So recently i noticed a puddle of oil on my driveway. I left the car in to a local garage and they changed the Rocker Cover Gasket. I picked the car up and next day noticed another puddle of oil on my driveway so obviously...

Thanks everyone for your help and finally it is now working. I got the WD40 ( other lubricants are available ) and sprayed it everywhere and raised and lowered the spoiler manually with the Allen Key bolt in the motor itself and after a few cycles it started working on the button. Such a relief...

Hi all. Update on spoiler issue. I had a replacement motor arrive today and when i fitted it the motor is working which my old 1 wasn't so i thought BINGO !! we are sorted but unfortunately the spoiler refuses to rise. I can hear the motor working but nothing happening so my spoiler must be...

Also i snapped off one of the 3 studs on the retainer assembly so would it still be useable or would i need to track down a replacement aswell? I was hoping to solder it tomorrow and see if it holds. Has this happened to anyone else? Thanks

UPDATE !!!!!!! So after a lengthy delay i finally got to testing the electrical side of things and i can confirm the wiring is getting a live right up until the motor itself. I have 12v coming in but nothing at all from the motor so that's the culprit i hope. Anyone out there have a spare motor...

Thanks guys. I will get a multimeter when i return home next week and try the above.

Hi NF7. I have looked a fusebox diagrams and there is no mention of another spoiler fuse unless it is linked with something else. Can anyone shed some light on this please?

Thanks for the info guys. Do you mean the maxi fuse near the battery when you mention check the fuse or is there another fuse in the main fuse board? Also if i need a motor does anyone on here have a working one lying around by chance? Many thanks

Hi RCZKam and thank you for posting. Apologies for the late reply but today was the first chance i had to check. I did the checks and there is no sound coming from the motor when i push the button. The light comes on the button and it is solid not flashing so would you diagnose the motor as the...

Thanks Pedro. I will get it booked in and get it looked at. Good ideas where to start.

Hi all. This past few days i have a very noticeable whine / whirring sound from below the bonnet of my THP200. I know it is not chain related as that was all replaced in December of last year so could it be alternator or water pump possibly? The noise is more prominent when the engine is cold...

Thanks NF7 👍
