    What is rcz based on?

    It is not the exact same chassis as those Peugeot models since the RCZ is wider. It is really very difficult to know if a suspension part is the same between two models, and the manufacturer usually puts different references for different models, although it may be the same part. On Autodoc.eu...

    Unknown rubber parts

    Thanks ! Strange that a previous owner put that on it when the suspension is already hard and even more with 19" rims. I will remove it, they are quite destroyed

    Unknown rubber parts

    Does anyone know what those two pieces of rubber are, that my car has attached to the right front suspension spring? They are not on the left side. They do not appear in Service Box

    1.6 litre 200THP - Issue regarding the High-Pressure-Fuel-Pump (HPFP)

    I'm not going to look for a problem where, for now and after 20,000km, there isn't one.

    1.6 litre 200THP - Issue regarding the High-Pressure-Fuel-Pump (HPFP)

    For now I don't care much. I also think that the pump does not fail due to oil leaks since if that were true and with the small amount of oil it contains, it would fail much sooner. I think the pump fails due to oil degradation, which reduces the volume somewhat by creating sludge. And there...

    I don't know if the guy who fixed mine changed the seals or not. For now it works fine

    1.6 litre 200THP - Issue regarding the High-Pressure-Fuel-Pump (HPFP)

    The reason HPFP usually fails is not mechanical, the reason is usually lack of oil. It consists of a hydraulic piston pump that transmits oil pressure to gasoline through metal bellows. Over time it loses hydraulic oil. Underneath it has a small oil tank with a membrane and a spring that I...

    PCV Valve and pipe issues

    In the last photo, if the small filter on the left has a tube coming from below, then it has nothing to do with the PCV system. It is a breathing tube and filter for the turbo regulation solenoid valve that is lower down. It should be hidden in a cavity in the timing cover, but someone left it...

    Front brake pads question...

    If the discs are worn with very worn pads, it may be that the metal of the pad scratches. Furthermore, we always tend to look at the exterior pad but they do not usually wear out equally and it may be that the interior pad is still more worn. Unfortunately the RCZ does not have wear sensors...

    White Smoke

    Water vapor coming out of the exhaust for the first few minutes in winter is normal, water condenses inside the exhaust and then comes out when starting. It is very different if smoke comes out when accelerating after having been idling stopped, already with the engine warm, at a traffic light...

    Maybe the clock is failing to connect to the CAN Bus

    Android Head Unit Volume Control From Stalk

    CAN Bus does not work in an analog way by changing resistances, it is a digital transmission bus and among many other informations the position of the buttons is transmitted. Obviously for your Android to have that information it must also be connected to the CAN Bus

    Android Head Unit Volume Control From Stalk

    Keep in mind that in modern cars there is no longer a cable for each button, lamp or function, the devices communicate through digital communication, the most used system in cars is the CAN Bus

    Analogue clock will not sync with digital clock

    Have you changed the original stereo with some after market unit ?

    Timing chain replacement

    Surely they didn't mount the chain correctly, they skipped a tooth on a sprocket, some camshaft works out of phase. Go back to the shop where they did it and have it fixed, the repairs are guaranteed.

    Do the clock hands move? or is it broken?

    Spare wheel - Solutions available

    If the rim is 18" it should not collide with the brake caliper both front and rear, except on the RCZ-R which needs at least 19" in front
