Just bought my first RCZ It’s old but affordable . 2010… so I am sure I’ll be needing advice. What one top tip would you give a newbie in the first month ?

1.6 … in black. It replaced my diesel Volvo V70 convertible . Not good for ULEZ coming in Bristol. The RCZ is more fun to drive

As Nemi said make sure your oil is fresh and keep it topped up to max on dipstick only use quality oil and Peugeot changed the spec from 5W-30 to 0W-30 change oil and filter every 5K it’s the best way to keep these engines sweet.

Thanks for that … does the brand of oil matter on such an old model I.e is Total best or any brand will do?

Total does INEO first 0w30 for the engine but I seem to recall Petronas also doing the spec. Look to see compatibility with PSA B71 2312/2302 spec.
