    GUIDE: Updating the firmware, maps and installing risk areas (RADARs) on NG4

    If you still have a USB or SD memory connected, disconnect it! It could be that the memory has errors and NG4 is very sensitive to that. It happened to me, a USB memory with errors caused multiple hard resets, losing all configurations. You could verify and correct errors by connecting it to...

    Missing items in boot?

    I removed all that, now I have a spare wheel, a 17" from a Peugeot 407 that fits perfectly in the space. Inside the wheel I carry the jack and tools

    PUG1OFF Light Weight Flywheel

    Yes, inertia is necessary, a combustion engine is not an electric motor, it is propelled by explosion strokes. The flywheel is also necessary for a stable idle and for these shocks to not affect the transmission. The energy accumulated by the flywheel is not lost during acceleration when...

    Peugeot RCZ GT 1.6 petrol Engine Fault Problems

    For me it is very likely that the problem is the high pressure fuel pump. There is a cheap system to find out: - Purchase an ELM327 Bluetooth ODBII connector. - Install and run the Torque application on your phone with the connector on the ODBII port - Monitor the fuel rail pressure at cold...

    SOS - Engine fault 😭😭😭

    I had that pipe cracked for a while and the car ran fine. I think that even if it were removed, those problems you describe would not appear. You can buy the pipe for the RCZ in several places, including ebay and aliexpress, even in various colors

    HPFP much cheaper than Garage!!! (High pressure fuel pump)

    I removed it and reinstalled myself. Total cost €110, €90 that the guy, here in spain, who fixes them charged me, and €20 for transports, the car was stopped for about 10 days. Removing the battery is no problem, you disconnect the positive, move the connections block to the right, swing and...

    Fault Code P0A1A

    The wiring should be carefully checked, especially the one that reaches the alternator. Unfortunately, some garages currently go straight to changing parts instead of seriously analyzing the problems.

    Newby with a GT HDI .. maybe wheel swap?

    And new shock absorbers can improve comfort by reducing the amplitude of the oscillation and also improve handling. Cars after 10 years usually have quite worn out shock absorbers.

    Help required

    If you press the brake repeatedly and quickly at the end it gets hard because you don't let the pistons go back, but probably the wheels were braked but skidding.

    Newby with a GT HDI .. maybe wheel swap?

    The difference will be small using 18 instead of 19. The suspension will continue to be hard, it is a sports car ! In addition, driving in curves will worsen a bit.

    Help required

    If you are driving at speed and there is a lot of water on the ground, aquaplaning can occur, which means that the tire cannot evacuate all the water and the tire steps over the water, thus losing all of its traction and braking capacity. Tire wear has a very big influence on this, if they...

    LED bulbs in a halogen headlight

    In my country they are not legal and with them the car does not pass the annual technical inspection, even the police can fine you for being a non-approved modification. I suppose it will be similar in other EU countries.

    Heat doesn't work

    You welcome. I think the car in the video is a Citroen C5, there may be differences with an RCZ. I have been looking in my RCZ, I have not been able to see the bleeder on the thermostat body but I can see the one on the heating tube, it is where the tube enters the interior of the car, behind...

    Heat doesn't work

    The first one is hard to see, it is in the thermostat body on the right lateral of the engine and there are many things there, it is better to remove the pipe that goes from the air filter to the turbo. The second, if you do not remove the air filter, as in the video, and the pipe already...
