    Spark Plugs for the RCZ

    I only use NGK plugs. Latest plug from NGK is ILZKBR7B-8G. Use only these now. From eTuners: Ignition Ignition coils The stock coils will generally not fail. They are very reliable. But make sure you never expose them to humidity or water and they will be good for life. If you wash your...

    GEARBOX horror story . . .

    Yes, what you say is true. I had an Astra 1.8 petrol manual. Was the runaround for the family. The tranny oil had no service schedule, and the tranny sump had no drain plug. Being a fluid replacement disciple, I decided to do the tranny fluid. Had to remove the tranny sump bottom plate to...

    RCZ 1.6THP Timing Chain Replacement Peugeot MINI BMW

    The Prince THP200 engine from 2015 on, is the most reliable. Nice piece of work with that magic cylinder head from BMW. However, I changed the chain on my 207cc Sport at 100,000 kilometres (60K miles). The original chain on the Prince engine was too narrow, so stretched easily. There were...

    Oil sludge on engine when oil cap removed

    Looks very sludgy all right. Too long between oil changes. Run a engine clean through the engine and change oil and filter. I do an oil change every 3,000 miles and oil & filter every 6,000 miles. And every 25,000 miles - one of these...

    RCZ pop-up SatNav display screen.

    Nice to help. While the eBay unit is still up, check out the place where you snip the cable-tie. I have circled it with red.

    RCZ pop-up SatNav display screen.

    Also on 308, 3008, etc. The LCD display started to flicker, blur and go blank, every time I activated it. Phoned my ace Pug mechanic on the Gold Coast (Wayne Botha - 0413 942 026). He advised I needed a new cable from radio to display. However, he had fixed a few by removing the display and...

    Clay bar ahoy . . .

    Gave the RCZ a top class external clean. Wonder Wheels spray for the 19" wheels. Then wash and leather shammy dry. Then used the Maguires Clay Bar kit and gave the whole paint the clay bar touch. Amazing what crud comes off with the clay bar process. Then applied AUTOGLYM Superior Resin...

    TCZ THP200 - fault code P1339

    The RCZ THP200 got a code yesterday. Code P1339. Advertisement So, I phoned my master Pug mechanic, Wayne Botha (Gold Coast - 0413 942 026), and asked his advice. Straight away he told me it was a faulty ignition pencil coil. And then said that I could take the four out of the French Tart to...

    RCZ THP200 transmission oil change.

    Well done. I would recommend the change. Re crush washer - I always keep a small supply on hand. Used mainly for engine oil changes.

    RCZ THP200 transmission oil change.

    Hi All, I spent an arduous morning doing the above oil change. Phew! To get to the filler plug is horrendous. Battery removal was time consuming. Finally at the filler hole and disconnect one of the two gear linkages. Underneath, easy-peasy. In the attached video the dude removed his cross...
