At least you’ve found the problem and it’s a cheap fix 👍

Loads on eBay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/263027051946?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=Kd0_Cu7ISXq&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=wcg4dwyfQIC&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

The Mini guys have proven that this does help but it’s something that really wants doing from new or after a walnut clean, it’s something that you’ll only see the benefits of many miles down the road and as mentioned previously won’t totally cure valve fouling but for what it costs it’s well...

They’re a fortune new silly money when I had mine custom skinned in carbon fibre and Hermes stole them Peugeot quoted something like £400 each!!!!!

The auto is a rare beast and is it because it’s an auto that your prepared to have another look at this car? There’s loads of RCZ’s for sale out there, my advice would be go and look at a few more cars and then make your decision.

Verminator at work on another set of arches from the RCZ UK fb group 😁

The valves and sensors will have to be removed and new valves fitted after the refurb it’s false economy to use the old rubber valves as they invariably leak once they’ve been pulled from the alloy 👍

Any smoking from exhaust after being left to tick over for a while or after being stood at traffic lights? A common issue is valve stem oil seals letting oil by this would lead to excessive oil consumption.

Aftermarket sensors are relatively cheap now and do work ok if you have a MK1 car the new sensors have to be programmed to the car MK2 are plug and play 👍

Looks great you’ve obviously been bitten by the RCZ bug! 😆 The enthusiasts wave the Hairdressers don’t! 🤣🤣🤣

I think you get to em by removing the wheel arch liner not actually done it I bought some led fog bulbs too but not got round to fitting them.

As Verminator says best to paint but vinyl wrap is a decent alternative and probably not much cheaper than paint.

Gullwing too 😮 did you fo the conversion or previous owner? I’ve heard many horror stories of them catching the wings and no fitting properly?

How can they quote you between £1500 and £2000 if they don’t know what damage has been caused? Sounds fishy to me be very wary of garages that throw figures like that about before actually doing anything 🤷‍♂️

I believe you can just leave the sensor unplugged just tape it up and some of those aftermarket hoses come with a steel insert to connect the hose up.

We’re all a friendly bunch look forward to meeting you 👍

I can vouch for this as the Verminators grey lady has a shine like no other 👍

Personally I wouldn’t take what the AA said as gospel get a second opinion from a good specialist

I’ve not read any real negative reviews where did you see these?

You just need a plastic trim removal tool or if your really careful not to scratch anything a small flat blade screwdriver and prise out the whole switch panel
