I've been driving hard suspension cars for over 30 years and I'm fully used to it, I prefer it that way, my RCZ has 19" rims.
I don't think that the 19" wheels weigh more than the 18", the aluminium is bigger but there is less tire, since they have to be mounted with a 40 profile and not a 45...
Welcome to the forum !
NG4 and later RT6 were an option with a GPS navigator and retractable screen that your car does not have installed.
Your car has the same screen and radio that were installed in millions of Peugeot and Citroen cars as basic equipment. There are several options on the...
Maybe they changed it, cars with navigation and a big screen, have a round navigation button on the center console near the spoiler button.
If it doesn't have it, it's because they changed the small screen for the big one.
The latest official Peugeot maps are from 2016, they are the ones I have installed.
You can download them in the last link of this post: GUIDE: Updating the firmware, maps and installing risk areas (RADARs) on NG4
I have no problems finding addresses in Spain
Those from later years are...
I made the change the other way around, reinstalling NG4 after the previous owner had changed it for a Chinese Android screen. The FM radio worked very poorly.
The retractable screen was disabled, it did no lift. Google Maps take a long time finding the location. Poor sound quality
Fortunately...
Mine was repaired at 120000km a guy here in Spain repaired it for only €90. I removed and reinstall it myself.
It is easy to know if the pump fails via ODB2 connector monitoring fuel rail pressure
You only need a cheap Bluetooth OBD II Scanner ELM327 connector and a mobile free app like...
Mine runs super smooth at low revs, also in slow city traffic. Perhaps you have a problem with the high pressure petrol pump, a typical failure of these engines.
Here in Spain, if an airbag is disabled, it is a serious failure in the annual technical inspection that will not be passed. The same for the belt pretensioners.
I was looking at it on Ali Express and I think you can buy the spare part for the clutch and brake that are the same as other Peugeot models, but the accelerator one is different in RCZ and the footrest, that left-hand drive cars have, is also different.
On AliExpress they sell the entire set...
If you notice that when you open the throttle the car takes 1 - 2 seconds to push more, that is not because there is an electronic delay but rather it is due to turbo-lag, which is the time it takes for the turbo to rev up.
Furthermore, the automatic transmission does not help for a quick...
If water comes out of the exhaust, it is entering the combustion chambers somewhere.
That sounds like a head gasket problem.
Is there sludge on the inside of the oil filler cap?
Have you had any overheating?
Connecting to the ODBII port, you should observe the pressure in the injector rack. When you turn the key, it should rise to 5 bar, which is the pressure given by the pump in the tank. If it does not, the tank should be removed to access the bomb
The main culprit for timing chain problems is the tensioner.
It has a small spring that loses strength over time.
If you replace the tensioner as soon as it starts to make some noise when cold, then the chain can last a long time.
With those bulbs here in Spain the car is rejected in the technical inspection. And if the road police stop you, €200 fine
On the packaging it says: not valid for public roads
You have to see the engine from below, removing the plastic cover that has the engine underneath.
Nearby I can rent an elevator for €15 an hour. I've already used it to change the oil.
