    DAB Radio

    There was an accessory available from dealers in the U.K. that gave DAB capability. I would imagine there might well be an aftermarket version available.

    coolant leak

    Are you getting a puddle under the car when it’s parked? If so, whereabouts under the engine is it? Can you see any physical evidence of a leak under the bonnet? Loose/split hose anywhere? Have you checked the oil filler cap to see if there is “sludge” underneath (water in the oil). Is the screw...

    High Running Temp

    The RCZ runs with the temp gauge firmly planted smack in the middle, it also gets there quite quickly. I’ve always had the cooling fan running on after parking, it does it for a few minutes at the most, usually much less depending on the ambient temperature. If you don’t have any running issues...

    Good wash after Fusso99 liquid coat.

    Had a quick trip out between showers after a good wash following applying Fusso liquid coat by Soft99.

    and another noob question or 2

    If your car is a 2014 or older model it has TPMS as by law it had to be fitted. Press the adjuster that sticks out from below the dials (trying to remember this as I haven’t done it for ages & I’m not with the car at the moment) you should be able to bring up the tyre pressure display if they’re...

    Oil???

    Try to not let the oil level drop low enough for the warning light. The RCZ is ver susceptible to issues if the oil level isn’t kept near the top of the dipstick. Frequent oil checks are essential. Fwiw, I use Petronas in mine, if it’s good enough for Lewis Hamilton...........

    Miss fire when cold.

    Yes agree with above. That’s exactly how mine went. Sometimes ran like a Ferrari, other times like a Massy Ferguson. Sometimes limp mode, sometimes not. EML almost all the time. New HPFP & Fuel Rail sorted it (thankfully under warranty so didn’t cost me a penny).

    Engine mounts

    Might be worth contacting Peugeot U.K. direct to see if they’ll do a contribution as it’s a known issue. I had mine done foc due to the notice issued to dealers by Pug.

    Under door lights ?

    RCZPerformance, I’ve had a few pairs off them I think it’s Steve Ansell but not sure he’s still on here.

    Good afternoon everyone

    Welcome 👋 THE most important maintenance you can do with the RCZ is to keep the oil level to the top of the dipstick. There are all kinds of issues that can result in allowing the oil level to drop. If you do have an oil leak, you should be able to see some sort of evidence under the bonnet. If...

    Timing chain change about 1k miles ago a year ago and now light, light grey some noted on idle even when car warmed up

    Check all levels. Oil, water, the Z is known to sometimes have a light grey smoke, it might be just because it hasn’t been driven for some time.

    Newbie RCZ........

    Welcome. I’ve had mine 7 years which is a record for me. I still love driving it as much today as I did when I first picked it up. Awesome cars 👍

    RCZ Crash

    My other car is a new (2020) Range Rover Evoque. It has a Panoramic roof which has an electric blind. Apparently they cost £3000 to replace, as they come as a cassette. I was advised on the Evoque forum to make sure my insurance covered this, as apparently quite a few don’t. I contacted Admiral...

    RCZ Crash

    On Saturday we went to the supermarket on the way to the garden centre. The car park was very full but I spotted a space some distance away. When I got there, there was an Audi A5 an older scruffy looking one, parked at such an angle in its space, it effectively took up 3 spaces as both the ones...

    RCZ Crash

    I drove a Fire Engine for 25 years. I had to pass my EFAD course ( Emergency Fire Appliance Driving ). This involved driving both Fire Engines and normal road cars at high speed on public roads. There was also skid pan training at RAF Finningley (now Robin Hood Airport Doncaster) which we did in...

    RCZ Crash

    Sounds like the council workers round here 😱 I have no problem with Police doing their job & policing the roads just like any other section of society, if someone is driving like an idiot through a residential area they deserve everything they get, but going on my personal experience, there...

    Reversing mirrird

    I think I read that it’s part of the electric seat package. The R as standard has manual seats (presumably to cut down on weight) so as standard, it won’t have dipping mirrors.
