Glad to be of any help here :greetings-wavingblue: Don't worry, I run into the same problem when I picked up the car from the dealer. I was disappointed too. Actually my first negative feedback about the RCZ was about the sound system only. Then I learnt I used bad quality MP3, some 128kbits...

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) it's gone. missed that one. how much was it? mine is June 2014 with currently 52k on the odo.

I came to the conclusion that the JBL system is very "sensitive" to the MP3 quality you play from the USB stick. Are those songs at high bit rate and quality, then the JBL plays with power and volume. Are they sampled at low quality, then JBL plays them as flat as they are. No sugar-coating there.

^Agree People say, I drive fast but there is hardly any wear off. My last turbo car did 240.000 km without any engine parts to be replaced. The turbo turbine looked like new after that mileage.

Yes, low losses on the drivetrain. But keep in mind, this is a calculated value only. I was just wondering how Pug managed to pull 330Nm at 1900 rpms as stated in their brochure? My R pushes like 200Nm at 1900. Strange. I personally prefer the torque curve you see above over any other...

hi guys, Finally I found a quiet Saturday to visit a respected car tuning company in my area. Among others they of course do dyno runs on a rolling road. I trust them as the results they always deliver are "realistic". I already put few cars on their rolling road and they never disappointed or...

I'd like to see an actual R doing the claimed 145g ;)

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) Thank you! :greetings-wavingblue: I already purchased the newest map and put them on the car's device. Huge difference compared to the old one. Mine is the NG4 device, so I had hard times to find something on the net. Went for the "old-school"...

Re: 50.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) Here we are, over 80k kilometers equates to +50.000 miles :beer: In short: car is running fine, engine is strong, no major issues at all (the minor ones are not worth mentioning, but I will mention them) and the most important thing - I still...

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) Here we are, car goes into 50.000 miles service next week. The title of this thread needs an update :dance: Issues so far? Almost none apart from some minor issues like a bit more oil consumption between the services (up to 0.5 liters for the...

Welcome! Enjoy your RCZ as it is an extraordinary car :beer:

Sounds like the botched the hydraulic part of the power steering. The RCZ R has a electrically driven hydraulic power steering system. Maybe a proper bleeding will help here.

I tried but obviously my skills are not good enough (and I'm an IT guy). The consequence? I bought the maps over ebay. Should arrive here before Easter.

Glad to hear your R is back on the road! But what exactly was the cause of her wetting the garage floor?

In polish the RCZ can be lengthen to "RyCZy" (you spell it similar to "rich" but more like "richy") which means "it screams". Fits nicely to the RCZ.

I really admire your passion for detailing :greetings-wavingblue: You'd be crying when seeing my R in daily condition :lol: Apart from inside the car is filthy. During winter I only jet wash it and then move on.

It is a twin-scroll turbo. not a VTG. there is absolutely no VTG control device visible on the turbo housing.

Re: 30.000 miles with the RCZ R (my story) Thank you! Guys, I'm close to the 50.000 miles mark. Give me another month or two and I will write about the 50k :greetings-wavingblue:

If I make it back from USA till May 22nd can I take part on short term notice? And most probably with a no-detailed-but-at-least-washed RCZ R. She's my daily bitch 8-)
