    Stray connector under bonnet

    It’s because of the aftermarket air intake pipe you have on it, there is nowhere to plug the air sensor into with them. Yellow circle shows where it should be. Can affect mpg and a few other things, thread link below showing another one ‘modified’ with bits left with no homes...

    Heater Matrix

    My money is on the heater matrix (so long as there is no coolant loss, and the car is steady 90deg) as the heater matrix is badly positioned in them, near a 45deg angle and the way they are connected into the water system the coolant is not pushed, basically just using the heat rises theory. Any...

    Manual fabric to electric heated seats conversion

    I’ve done same, seat movements work but heat and memory don’t. I found that the configuration in the BSI configuration is default to; heated seats = not present memory seats = not present Having tried with the scanner I have when I change them to present I get a message something about software...

    Coolant Loss, no heat in car - have I a head gasket or air lock issue ?

    They all seem to leak at the rocker cover gasket, age and heat cycles seem to go for them quicker than most other engines. It’s a bit fussy to get them off, the other pipes etc in the way first. Just make sure you clean it to a squeak on the cover and the head, no sealant except for the tight...

    Coolant Loss, no heat in car - have I a head gasket or air lock issue ?

    It’s disengaged when cold, (speeds up warm up time) but as you have 40 miles+ done at a steady 90c so you can tick that off. Mayo staying away on decent runs, so prob just condensation. Monitor oil and water for a few days/weeks and start enjoying. pics??

    Injector clamp broken

    broke again after your run of weld and loctite? There has to be another factor playing a part. When you are replacing them make sure your are getting the threads as clean as possible, some brake cleaner into the threads and blow out with an airline perhaps. When you torque it, it should be...

    Front Bumper

    There isn’t really much play about the front bumper skin, location tabs near position it. Couple of pics might help. The red circled grommets/bump stops to the front can be adjusted slightly to lower the bonnet a little to level it with the wings The bumper has tabs that go through the locating...

    RCZ won’t start after major engine work – timing chain, oil pump, electrical faults & water ingress – need advice

    The module info is in the electrical gremlins just above. Good luck.

    Weird clunk sound and feel through throttle lift off and gear shift

    Potentially the rear engine mount, but I might be inclined to change all mounts, inc gearbox as they are all same age after all. I believe they were born to be driven with a bit of gusto so get em changed and roar on. Have the front suspension arms and the strut top mounts checked too while the...

    RCZ won’t start after major engine work – timing chain, oil pump, electrical faults & water ingress – need advice

    https://www.peugeotrczforum.com/threads/electrical-gremlins.17381/post-175683 There was a thread on the forum about a member that fitted a brand new Bosch alt and to put it quite simply, the car did not like it. New alt from Peugeot sorted him out.

    RCZ won’t start after major engine work – timing chain, oil pump, electrical faults & water ingress – need advice

    Awful thing to have happen. During the job the battery should have been disconnected, it could be that during the disconnection or reconnection the battery control module got blown. If this is popped it could give you most of your issues, including being stuck in economy mode. Depending what all...

    cost of clutch replacement (who in the Midlands?) - cost of uprated clutch fit (stage 1 road use only) - with /without flywheel

    The dual mass flywheel could be reaching the end of its service life, springs gone slack in the discs giving you a strange bite, judder. Could have had a spirited driving style, hard not to 😀. 80k is in the window of clutch life depending on those things. When your getting the clutch done it is...

    front abs wheel sensor

    You might still get a genuine, used in the 308’s and Citroen for some time after the RCZ finished. If you do get stuck with waiting times I bought two full sets (not oem) when one of mine failed I can pop it in the post. Was due to rust growth pushing it forward wearing it through on the tip, if...

    ABS module location

    The external diodes were on the early cars, I think pre 2012. It was then integrated into the abs pump. If there isn’t a box about the size of a cig pack on the lower front of you battery (or your up the years) it’s integrated.

    ABS module location

    Pic of what it looks like, and if you remove the air pipes circle in red along with the noise box you will see it. Before you jump to replace there is a relay box (from memory) attached at the front of the battery box that has four 1 amp diodes in it along with a couple of other bits, it can...
