    I recall it's something like 22/23 NM.

    'Engine fault - Repair needed' dashboard warning message

    Ideally, without loading the parts cannon, you need any fault codes that are lurking.

    Update!!!!

    I've got Peugeot Planet 2000, Lexia and Diagbox. Not used them in a few years though so what versions they are I can't remember.

    Update!!!!

    From memory. Bear in mind it's about 3 years ago.. Unclip wiring, lift up the locking lever thing, (or it might be locking thing first which also holds the wiring plug on) pull upwards. No bolts, or screws as I recall. I may have missed something but I don't think so.

    Update!!!!

    Really? I think I paid about £25 for the one I did. Did that also include the cost of the diag? I have Diagbox at home so just used to use that.

    Update!!!!

    Coil packs are cheap and easy. Literally a 2 minute job. Hopefully it is that, as a failing high pressure fuel pump can give cylinder 1 misfire codes..

    19s ?

    Where do you get them from? If you don't mind me asking.

    19s ?

    Probably just be less comfortable. I think the 18s are 235 45, whereas 19s are 235 40. So same contact patch, just less sidewall. Stock tyre sizes obviously. Probably more expensive tyres too.

    Clutch thrust bearing noise

    It's the best way of describing the noise! 😁

    Clutch thrust bearing noise

    I had the timing gear changed on mine, and literally a month later it started the chattering. So it went.

    Clutch thrust bearing noise

    The mooing clutch and chattering DMF were the nails in the coffin for my RCZ.

    BUYING ADVICE

    From what I recall the 200 is quite a lot different than the 156. Different gear ratios, brakes, anti roll bars. Smaller steering wheel, shorter gear lever. A different pcv system maybe. That's what I remember, there could be more differences.

    BUYING ADVICE

    I'm usually wary of cheap cars. I'd rather spend more on a car from a dealer with warranty. Especially with a car that could potentially cost a significant sum in repairs. My RCZ had its timing gear replaced at the cheapest main dealer locally, and that was over £1000. Don't let me put you off...

    BUYING ADVICE

    Jacking points are made of papier mache. Start it from cold if possible, saves you discovering it needs its timing gear changing the day after buying it. If it clatters - budget up to a grand if you buy privately and it needs doing. Ideally buy from a dealer with a warranty. Another favourite...

    Newbie require more info about RCZ R.

    If I were buying that I'd want the brakes doing before I bought it. I haven't seen the advert but I doubt it says anywhere "cheap because the front brakes cost a boat load to do" So they either know the job costs a lot and if you mention it they'll say "that's why it's cheap", or they don't know.

    Newbie require more info about RCZ R.

    Just make sure they don't "refurbish" them in a single colour. I had 19" diamond cut wheels done once, it wasn't cheap. Near on £400. So going on that they must have made a decent margin on it if they're also changing the tyres.

    EML Light

    I could be wrong, but I think HPFP failure usually throws a C4 misfire code.
