    Oil advise

    I use Total Quartz Ineo ECS 5W30 on my petrol RCZ. I used to buy 0W30 but my RCZ burns a lot of oil so thicker one helps a bit :rolleyes:

    Poor acceleration THP200

    I have turbo and carbon build up on my to do list. Sometimes EML pops up and turbo stops working... My RCZ is at 130k km already so I guess there is a lot of carbon to clean. This will be expensive but I love my RCZ 😌

    Battery lenght RCZ 2013 facelift Auto

    Also, when replacing battery, keep your windows fully or down otherwise you will need to recalibrate them. My window was rolled down a bit and after battery replacement I couldn't roll them fully up. If you need to recalibrate your windows, then the solution is to lower the window with the...

    Battery lenght RCZ 2013 facelift Auto

    As for battery size, I have fitted 27.8cm X 17.5cm X 19cm (74 Ah, 680 A). The positive connector should be on the right side.

    Poor acceleration THP200

    Seems pretty normal to me as well :rolleyes: If no problems are found, just do a remap for that extra boost. I did remap my RCZ and the difference is very noticeable 👍 Also, I wonder if your HPFP was replaced already because at those mileages HPFP becomes a problem for many RCZs.

    My Australian RCZ

    It is sad that you got all these problems at 40k km. My repairs started at around 80k km and I have spent around 2-3k EUR on engine repairs over 3 years. Before buying my RCZ I knew that this engine is poopy when it comes to reliability. Diesel version is more reliable. Your dashboard looks...

    Tell me about RC-Z's

    Well there is facelift version of RCZ which looks less like "peugeot" :) I still don't get why you put dash in RCZ, for some reason it triggers me

    Tell me about RC-Z's

    Not sure why you put dash after RC :rolleyes: It is RCZ, not RC-Z Mine has THP 200 engine which does 0-60 mph in 7.4 seconds so i wouldn't call that a rocket. RCZ-R is a different story but i haven't driven it. For me RCZ is more about looks and feel than performance.

    Tell me about RC-Z's

    Is it even legal to wrap whole car in chrome? For petrol engines common issues are failing high pressure fuel pump, rattling chain, leaking thermostat housing. Take a look at this website Peugeot-Citroen/Mini 1.6 THP engine naming, maintenance and servicing – 101 – eTuners

    HPFP

    What's the mileage on your RCZ?

    Pearl or Opel

    Pearlescent is the same as pearl white. Opal white is whiter but pearl white looks cooler in the evening

    Number plate bulb holder removal

    something like this but it was way harder on my RCZ

    Chrome gear knob

    Those gear knobs get very hot in summer 😅 but worth it 👍
