At 85,000 kilometers, I took the RCZ to Eurotune, Miamie, Gold Coast.
They do walnut blasting.
Pics were taken before and after, and while the after pics look like a brand new display, the before pics were not that bad at all. Minor build up.
I recall my Pug Mechanic telling me that the 2nd...
The new clutch and new PUG1OFF light weight flywheel is now installed. Things noted: Noticeable improved acceleration in 1st, 2nd and a bit in 3rd gears. Slows down quicker when taking foot off accelerator - I like this, especially going down some hills. Softer clutch engagement and a touch...
The RCZ is currently waiting on a rear torsion beam from France. When that is fitted so will the Bilstein's and the flywheel, with a new clutch.
That's going to be around August, so I will get back to you then.
Cheers.
Oh dear, the RCZ slid on new diesel at a round about and thumped its rear left wheel into the curb . . .
Wheel is off to be revived.
Initially the steering wheel was pointing to the right. With ABS warnings on and off . . .

Well, interesting . . . My master Pug mechanic diagnosed it as a mis-calibrated steering wheel alignment.

These RCZ have a very temperamental suspension set upon.

HELP. I need the same sensor. Part no. is 9674196180
I'm in Australia and cannot find the part anywhere. The Golden Fleece alright!

Cheers.
I see that PSA has continued to develop the Prince engine, even after BMW dropped it from their line-up.
The engine is now in great shape.
I have two of them.
A 2010 THP150 that caused a lot of dramas, but I persevered. And the 2013 THP200 in my RCZ, which is on song.
The Aussies have lots:

Not long now, the Bilsteins' arrived and look gorgeous.
Looks like a fitting early November.
This is interesting:

I have not thought about the bushes. Yours has done 112,000 kilometres. I probably do the bushes next strut change which will be 160,000 kilometres. (100,000 miles).
