That noise comes from the rear suspension. In certain ambient temperatures the RCZ tends to produce loud knocking noise from the rear suspension. It goes away and comes once in a while. I still haven't worked out when and why. She has some moods, my RCZ R, haha. But I love her :)
You're welcome!
That pipercross is a very nice add-on to the R's engine. Works well. I have it too and the biggest difference is in the upper speed region where the airflow is improved over the stock filter.
So, go for it!
Welcome to the R club :)
Enjoy this terrific car. I do since over 25.000 miles.
Few tips & tricks:
- it takes for the engine to break free. In my case it took up to 15.000 miles before the full potential&power of the engine emerged. Now it runs like stupid into the limiter at 157mph. In...
Re: Oh please make this Peugeot, please, please pretty pleas
OMG, I'd sell my RCZ R right away to have this one :clap:
Please, build it! It will be a slap in the face of all those RS3 and A45 cars.
Ask me! I do about 40-50.000km a year with the R :dance:
But I asked myself, is it sane to drive some cheap box with a small diesel engine to save few bucks a year but suffer from it day by day? Waste precious time on the roads, cause it is slow? Be harassed by some Audi drivers on the fast...
Including labour. That is quite the price you have to pay for them. Over here about 350 euros for the material plus labour.
Those are the pads we are looking at:

nothing really groundbraking here. But Audi is well known for doing proper marketing. Thus the innovations are assigned to them.
From time to time I run across cars with this lighting technology and I must say they are bedazzling. There are situations on the road where those systems do not...
I don't know where in the world you will attempt to complete this project but in Germany they would charge you a 5 figure euro price for what you have on your mind.
Compared to that going for stage 2 only (different intercooler, intake and exhaust system, ECU remap) and achieving about...
According to experienced PSA tuning companies the stock internals in our Rs are good for up to 310bhp. Not 380. Torque-wise close to 400Nm.
But that requires a rebuild of the air intake system as a whole, the exhaust system (excl. downpipe which is good enough) and a proper remap which winds up...
hi there,
Finally I've installed the pipercross air filter on my R.
Installation process has already been described on the forum so let's leave that out.
Feedback?
Sure. Sound did not change a lot. You need to tune in to hear any difference compared to the stock filter. I mean, the R plays...
@Lkooman
Are you happy with the pipercross?
Considering it on my R...
The exhaust got already way louder than at the beginning. But I'd like a little bit more sound :)
