Hmmm.. 1.6 Petrol ... 12k miles - Just had the yellow EMS light pop on, repair needed. - I had noticed that after the 12month service that the car, very occasionally, seemed to be down a bit on power every now & then, the dealer had done nothing at the sevice other than top ups & apply 'software' updates.
The power loss seemed to be in 3rd / 4th gear 2k rpm (ish). anyway - went to local dealer, who investigated and reported back the timing chain had "stretched", it took 24hrs to fix and return.
There was no sign of the temperature errors others have posted about and the car ran as normal while the light was on.
The dealer also applied more software updates while in the repair centre. They said they hadn't had any RCZ's back with the light on since launch.
Dealers were excellent - arranged courtesy car etc etc... Robins & Day in Altrincham.
anyone else ? - hope its not a sign of problems cropping up...
