It might be worth also removing the links to gpsunderground in the 1st post, or at least mentioning that (sadly) this site no longer exists.

Really sorry we missed it (my wife was very unwell and all our travel plans - including a few days in the Lake District with the MX-5 OC just before PugFest - went out the window). Hopefully we can make it next year.

I didn't buy the car - my wife did. The RCZ R, good and all as it is, wouldn't have been my personal choice. And yes, she bought it on impulse because she liked the look of it (whereas I tend to do lots of research before buying cars). But it's her money, and it's up to her how she spends it.

I give up! Enlighten us.

Funnily enough, my wife used the same product (Autoglym Bumper & Trim Gel) yesterday on the roof arches on her car and it made a huge difference. Had to do 2 or 3 applications for the best result, and I'll be interested to see how long it lasts. If you have had yours for "some years", make sure...

Unless you think that £0 is "very rich", you really are deluded. No franchised dealer would last any time in business if they did any of those things . Not only would they see their reputation in tatters, and lose their franchise, but they would also be subject to prosecution. I bought a...

I'm really not sure what point you're trying to make here. Your initial point about buying a car from a (presumably non-franchised) retailer and finding out that it hadn't been correctly serviced seems to support my choice not to touch a car without a full main-dealer service history. As a...

Perhaps that says more about you than about the dealerships involved. It has certainly not been my experience. Doubtless there are competent independents out there, but even they will not have access to the latest factory service information, diagnostics, tooling, consumables, parts, training...

I'm no under any illusion that main dealers are perfect, but, as I mentioned, I have all my cars serviced by main dealers and have had plenty of experience of Porsche, BMW, Lexus, Mazda, Toyota and Skoda (but not yet Peugeot) dealers. I've not had any particularly bad experiences with any of...

Thanks, but I want to keep it in the Peugeot dealer network. The car has only done 15k miles, and is covered under Peugeot warranty. (As an aside, all of my cars are main dealer maintained. I personally would never buy any second-hand car which had been serviced outside a main dealer network.)

We're trying to decide where best to get my wife's new-to-her RCZ R serviced when it's due. Can any Peugeot dealership service an RCZ R, or are there any who specialise in the R models? Any recommendations for Peugeot dealerships in the Hampshire area with expertise in RCZ R servicing? We're in...

At the end of the de-activation, are you sure that DRM=0? If DRM is 1, then it will ask for an activation code. BTW, the "maps database" that you're seeing is what is installed in the car currently. Once you press "Update" (after de-activating) you will get the list of updated maps on your...

I think that bolt hole might be used to help lift the engine out when it needs to be removed. I don't think there would normally be anything in it.

Many thanks - ticket now purchased with "RCZ UK" as the group. We'll both be coming, so hopefully will get a chance to meet some of you.

Sorry to hijack the thread, but my wife is talking about going to PugFest in her new-to-her RCZ R, so we'd also be very interested in parking alongside (and meeting...) other RCZ owners.

Post #38 in this thread has a link to the V2.80 firmware. However, are you sure that you have an RT6, as you talk about an SD card and I'm not aware of the RT6 using an SD card?

That can be a symptom of the ignition switch needing to be replaced. It's common when people have their car keys on big heavy keyrings - eventually the weight damages the switch.

If you're ever down this way, I'd be very happy to do so!

My wife's new-to-her RCZ R was on V2.75 when she got it this week. I downloaded V2.86 from post #112 in this thread, extracted it to a FAT-32 32Gb USB drive and deleted the System Volume Information directory. Put it in the car, and after about 20 minutes (during which the car changed its...

Did the R come in silver? Or is that Mercury Grey (which does look very like silver to my eyes)?
