    Black arch (re)colouring

    The colour on the black arches on my GT200 are starting to look a bit uneven. Has anyone tried ‘bumper black‘ or similar .I’m not sure the composition is the same as plastic bumpers. Any suggestions -the small area I tested with T cut was not good.

    Most comfortable tyres.

    Having gone for a run round the local Worcestershire A and B roads including some DCs I was appalled at the ride discomfort on the 19s which I hadn’t noticed before. Perhaps I’d been unlucky in picking such a crap route and now having a VW Up which has compliant tyre and suspension to compare on...

    A glut of Rs

    Just noticed that there are 7 Rs on Autotrader which is quite a number compared with just 2 recently.

    Tilting wing mirrors

    Just discovered that I can programme in to allow the wing mirrors to tilt downwards when reverse gear selected. This was one thing that I really missed on my last Z.. Had it on a 607 some years ago and thought it one of it’s best features particularly useful to me as a Private Hire operator...

    Satnav update

    Whilst I understand all things mechanical I am totally confused over Satnav updates and how to access/install. I do not own a lap top only an ipad. My last Peugeot 406 coupe updated via a CD -simples!! Mine is 2014 200 GT. Any pointers would be gratefully received,other than giving up and...

    Passenger seat immobile

    Another new purchase problem (Oh well I wanted a project!) After appearing that the seat was working ok,initially,my wife complained that it felt like she was sitting on something lumpy. The seat then failed to move backwards or forwards. Having looked underneath I extracted a mini squeegee...

    Spoiler switch

    Having just bought another Z I had not noticed when doing a pre purchase check that the spoiler switch was completely seized solid as if it had been glued to immobilise the whole operation. Does this switch seize up?

    Low tyre pressure alert

    Having had the wheels beautifully diamond cut ,delivered back and fitted,I notice that despite my checking the pressures which were all ok apart from one which was about 6 psi down,the warning symbol does not go out. Unlike my 2008 where after tyre /pressure changes you have to press a...

    Bumper sensors

    I want to fit a rear bumper to replace my badly repaired one. There is a good breaker one with sensor and rear light cluster. Will the reversing sensors plug in and play with the original wiring?

    Leather cover interior door pull

    I want to buy a leather cover for the interior chrome door pull -eBay advert The advert says not suitable for a 2014 model. The picture on the advert looks exactly the same as the 2014 version. Anyone know if these door pulls are different on the updated RCZ.

    Here we go again.

    As a veteran of the dreaded timing chain fiasco on a Mk1 156,I thought buying a 2014 200 with 40k would be a fairly safe bet! Only recently bought it and hadn’t noticed on starting from cold any undue rattles. However this evening started it up (it was facing downhill not the usual uphill) and...

    Too slow

    Just thought I’d drag a VW Golf electric as I’d only just got my new 200. Big mistake -within 200 yards having had a 50 yd start she was up my bumper! (Saleswoman from VW dealership) Don’t know which version it was but 0-60 must have been well under 7 seconds. Just as well I was turning off...

    Passenger seat fault.

    Having gone through the new Z to find any faults,the passenger seat will not move back or forward although it was doing yesterday and the rake of the seat operates normally. Looking under the seat for any loose wires I noticed a mini squeegy wedged beneath the lateral bar.I removed it(how it...

    2010 156 having to go.

    I’ve just bought a red 64 plate 200 GT with 40k for £6500 -however is CAT N (repaired some years ago) and needs some cosmetic body tidy ups and diamond cut wheels refurbishing! ANYWAY -as a result I have my 2010 156 98k for sale. Its problems over the years have been well documented on this...

    Nearly bought Carbon Red 200

    Really looked forward to viewing a 2015 50k Carbon Red 200 at £11650.Photos on AutoTrader indicated a superbly preserved Z and I was quite prepared to replace my 2010 156 100k,and splash out an extra £9k for the privilege! Great disappointment - all the wheels had the dreaded tin worm on the...

    Coolant loss

    I know this has been covered before in various guises but I need to know if anyone has actually discovered the reason for coolant loss (between Max and Min) but no further. Investigations at my local trusted garage have come to no conclusion but I noticed that a number of members have...

    Wet rear spare wheel well

    I tend not to look under the boot cover but today I needed to put something away in the polystyrene tray. I noticed that there was quite a lot of water in the well. The centre seal seemed to only be semi secure but quite tight -it drained away fairly easily after prising up the edge . Is it...
