Position memory also include the exterior mirrors. In cars with position memory, the mirror motor is different, with position sensors and many more wires than those without. The first drawback to adding non-installed extras is usually the wiring.

The standard tire size for an RCZ with 19" rims is 235/40/19, not 35. The issue of suspension and tire comfort has been discussed extensively on this forum, with the conclusion that there's no clear solution. Personally, I've been driving cars with stiff suspensions for decades, and I don't...

For viewing and clearing default codes, checking fuel rail pressure, intake pressure, throttle position, and more, it works perfectly.

Cheaper and works great, I have it https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pennle-Bluetooth-Scanner-Automotive-Diagnostic/dp/B0DJ6Z3646/

Welcome In terms of mechanics, the RCZ is similar to other Peugeot and Citroen models, mainly there's no need for someone who specializes in RCZs.

The carbon buildup in the intake ducts would need to be cleaned.

My left motor was replaced a few months ago, unfortunately it's different in the RCZ than in other models. It cost me €400 on eBay.

The rubber sleeve is not a separate part, it does not have a specific reference, it is part of the coil.

The video contains serious errors, such as disconnecting cables without first disconnecting the battery! Significant risk of short circuit! The first step is to open the small cover and disconnect the positive (+) terminal of the battery. There's no need to disconnect any cables or connectors...

I was a forum administrator until recently, and I tried many things to prevent spammers from registering. They're bots, not people, they can solve the captcha images, respond to the verification email, and even answer questions if Google already knows the answer. What worked best for me was...

My pump was repaired by someone, here in Spain, who advertises on a buy-and-sell website. He repaired it using a method I saw in YouTube videos: drilling a hole where there's a ball bearing and then plugging it with a screw. I don't remember exactly how many millimeters the diaphragm was...

The tires are stamped with the manufacturing date using four digits. The two on the left are the week of the year, from 1 to 52, and the two on the right are the year. The tire pictured was manufactured on week 25 of 2023.

Recently they also replaced the entire air conditioning box on mine. The evaporator isn't supplied separately. The fan and heating radiator from the old unit were reused, everything else, including the valves and servomotors, is new. The part alone costs €1080 + VAT. Total bill: €2200 :(

When my car had 115,000 km, I started using Total Quartz 9000 5W40 oil, the one that doesn't show "Energy" and meets the PSA standard. Since then, the engine runs quieter.

That pump is a magnificent piece of hydraulic engineering, but it has a problem with the oil. The oil loses volume over time as sludge builds up. The pump has a small oil reservoir in a diaphragm, but it's too small. When the oil runs low, cavitation occurs, and the pump starts to malfunction.
