not if you use the ones on rcz performance website! all the bulbs for sale have been tested on their very own test car before going on sale. if you by other brands on ebay you don't really know what you're getting.

Not always true. I tried some reversing LEDs from Steven. Although they lit up OK, the car detected there was a fault with them. I suspect this was because they just didn't draw enough current (LEDs - being more efficient than incandescent bulbs - naturally need less current for the same light).
Searching around the net, you can find LED lamps that draw higher current, with photos, but they never seem in stock so I don't know if they really exist. Another issue you can see is that they're sometimes longer than the bulbs they replace, so don't fit in the lamp holder/surround so well.

As stated we have all of the bulbs needed for your car and do work without any problems. Any detection is due to the RCZ having a very sensitive electrical system when checking LED bulbs due to the current draw, but this is uncommon (only found with a pair of reverse lights which the factory bulbs are not easy to match when it comes to functionality), and does not in any way cause any problems with the operation and function of the lights or the car, it does not cause any EML's etc. either. We have sold hundreds of the bulbs and use them in our car without any issues for years.
If we come across a better bulb we will list it, but the bulbs we have are the ones we have chosen over testing many others especially the ones found on auction sites.
Take a look and do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns:

Just to confirm. All of our bulbs are Canbus ready unless otherwise indicated, and all have been tested on the RCZ with no issues and great results. 100's sold worldwide.

Yes definitely some issues if not using right bulbs. I had some Canbus 501's left from my previous car which were supposed to be Canbus but there were problems. No error messages but bulbs not fully off and emitting a small amount of light.
All sorted with bulbs etc below.
Of course all lights need to be full Canbus, Even those which say they are are not necessarily so they will still emit a low light. (Thinking more internal here) However not all are as described.
I have found this out myself and have also found some really good fully Canbus with a high Lumens output. They work perfectly in my car. I think technology just gets better with each generation.
I purchased off ebay from the link below and they provide very good service.

They have a good light output and no Canbus issues, If you buy 10 I think they are about £1.00 each which in my opinion is good value.
Another very useful addition to my car are some custom made LED boot lights which make a massive difference.

These have made a huge difference to the light in the boot and are very simple to fit. I just broke off the stalk switches to be fair. Work perfectly. Good value as well and they accepted my best offer.
The majority of internal bulbs are easy to change, although you might want a proper tool removal set for main central internal cluster. to avoid scratches.
Overall massive difference.
