Hi all, so when I first got this THP156 RCZ, the aircon had a horrid smell especially when you first turn it on. So first thing I did was change the cabin filter which was definitely long overdue. However the smell persists. Thinking of using one of those aircon sprays through the system to...

Decided to do some eyelids up, have made a template and settled on the shape, next step is to find some good quality gloss black wrap... Depending how the finished product looks, if I'm not happy enough with it, then I'll remove them and progress to opening the headlights up and getting the...

Hi all, I've noticed a sections in the boot that look like they are missing some tools but no idea what they would be, does anyone know what is missing or have a photo of their own boot with those items present?

Hi all, so I went ahead and bought an Xtrons android touchscreen head unit, it looked good in promotional pictures but one thing that stood out before I bought it was that no sellers have photos of the unit actually in a vehicle. The only pics they have are photoshopped and from a direct front...

Hi all, I've noticed a strange smell coming from the vents that is strongest when the car is first started. I have replaced the cabin filter so was looking around trying to figure out what could contribute to it. Now, when I changed the cabin filter, I noticed in the engine bay a pipe that...

Not sure if this has already been posted, I couldn't find it here, but I found this great write up from a place called Etuners who are based in Greece. They have written up some great info regarding servicing and maintenance based on their experience with the 1.6 THP engine...

I want to remove the aircon vents and I've done some googling and also seen a video on Youtube that shows how, but in that video, you have to remove a bunch of interior pieces so you can get behind the vents and push while unlocking the tabs with a small flat head screwdriver. However, in the...

Well well, looks like the dealer may have been getting creative as I've just noticed the seat emblems are in different spots. So after doing some digging, I've found that my car has one original seat, and the other is from a Mk.2. After comparing Mk.1 seats which have the logo about midway up...

Hi all, I've been unable to find the answer in the forum search so deferring to the experts again! I don't like the faded look of the front emblem/badge area and I want to separate the lion from the black background so I can do a proper renew job, is the emblem just stuck on with really good...

Hi all, I've just taken delivery of a 2011 (1.6T auto, non-satnav) which I've posted about in the 'Newbies' section however, after a few days of travelling I now have some interesting quirks show up and wondered if they are common or not. So we took this on a 10hr round trip and two strange...

Greetings all, finally joined the RCZ flock and got a 2011 Auto (non-satnav). Been going over the car with a fine tooth comb and making a list of all the little tweaks we want to do. Other than that, very happy with this low kay example with full service history and bought from an official...

Bit of a story here...I've been looking for an RCZ for a few weeks, really absorbing everything about them, what quirks and features they have, the possible issues etc. I focused on one in particular that was priced reasonably low and looked ok on the face of it. The one thing that stood out...

Looking to add some modern supercar look to the RCZ, found this picture with LED strips in the headlights and want to do the same thing, has anyone done this particular mod before?

Hey experts, I've had a look around and there is plenty of talk about replacing the stock radio with an Android based touchscreen for those who don't have builtin satnav screen etc. But what about the models without the sat nav screen that want to replace that hideous and useless orange display...

I see a lot of talk about gear knobs for the manual RCZ's but what about the auto? I mean, just look at this knob, it's ridiculously long, has anyone here changed their auto gear knob to something less embarassing? Cheers.

To the experts here, I have a VIN number of an RCZ but what I'm trying to find is a build sheet or a site that will tell you what factory options and packs were fitted to a particular car, does that exist? I managed to find one for Chrysler when I owned on, you just put the VIN in and it gave...

Hi all, I'm looking to get an RCZ and doing my due diligence trying to absorb all the info about common issues and what to look for etc. There is a white 2012 that I am looking at (with the 1.6T engine) and lets just say it is an interesting case, I was 50/50 before but after learning more and...
