    Merry Christmas

    Merry Xmas to you too and a prosperous 2020. I'm 40 in 2020. How depressing is that?

    RCZ Shed of the Week on Pistonheads

    Quite, although it seems everyone is an expert. Even those that couldn't think their way out of a paper bag. The GT86 is "slow" apparently, although I'd wager 99% of people who say that have never driven one. Or have "took one for a test drive m9" There is one good comment though, and I'm...

    Win £200 of detailing kit for Xmas!

    Let us know what you buy, and any thoughts you have. I'm partial to cleaning stuff, and despite having a massive rack full of stuff in the shed can be persuaded to try stuff if others have good results.

    A couple of quick questions

    I'm not entirely sure I should post a link I'd rather not get in trouble with the Administrator. Search for gps power. From my understanding it used to be GPS underground, but that went pop for some reason or other. As I say I've used it plenty of times with no issue.

    A couple of quick questions

    If you are reasonably competent you can get the maps and firmware online for gratis, put them on a USB drive and update it yourself. I've used the same site for all of my Nav equipped Peugeots over the years, with no problems.

    Welcome. There is plenty of information here to make a good purchase.

    Winter RCZ alternatives

    Looks good fun Neil, hopefully we get none of the white stuff for a few days. As I've got some errands to do and a christening to attend. I'm not keen on driving in it given the quality of driving I see from the chimps in my area!

    Chug chug chug my way home

    I'd say the first code is a good indication of the issue, unfortunately.

    RCZ THP200 transmission oil change.

    I did mine, but don't recall disconnecting any gear linkages. Just drained the old oil, using tin foil as a "chute" then popped the cap off the top of the gearbox and filled it back up using a long, flexible tubed funnel. Didn't change the crush washer either, just torched it red hot then...

    D badge

    Isn't the pink dust due to a heat shield liner? Possibly the turbo heat shield, though don't take that as gospel.

    Your cars mileage

    Re: Your cars millage You don't drive it enough! My GT86 is a 13 plate, and had 16k on when I bought it a year and about 20 days ago. It's nearly at 27k now.

    Your cars mileage

    Re: Your cars millage Mine was at around 60k when I traded it in.

    No compression in one cylinder

    Direct injection engines (read, Peugeot RCZ petrol in this instance) do suffer from carbon build up, as the fuel does not wash the valves as in a non DI engine. So it could well be yours needs a walnut blast. Although, I am just linking your issues with what I know. I'm not a mechanic.

    200 thp - 23.9mpg

    I vaguely recall getting around 36/37 from my 200. So yours is very low. Have you checked things like binding brakes/handbrake?

    Something to worry about?

    Does it clatter for long? My understanding is the tensioners work on oil pressure so a small amount of noise from cold for a short period is ok. Mine rattled quite loudly and I got the chain, tensioners, guides and vvt sprockets replaced.

    Wanted Red RCZ

    Your profile does not state you have been banned. There has been a "glitch" that certain mobile network/s have been black listed, Neil brought it to our attention a day or two ago. I can't comment, I'm with Vodafone which is fine. If I knew the ranges of the addresses on these networks I could...

    Something to worry about?

    Can you get a video of the timing end from cold? Injectors on the thp are quite noisy anyway.
