    Clutch Slipping at 14k Miles

    I'm FURIOUS. They told my mechanic "all fine, no known issues around the clutch" when they clearly have had repairs done in the past. They are so cheap when it comes to warranty work it's bonkers. I spent countless days without my car, figuring out THEIR problems with my mechanic to get the...

    Clutch Slipping at 14k Miles

    Uhh any specifics for us? Where did the oil come from? Can it be checked easily? Clutch needs to come out for the fix? Please help us out with as much information as possible as we can’t relay on Lotus sharing the info to the dealers network reliability :|

    Anyone have this clutch noise when downshifting to 2nd?

    It seems to be a bit longer on yours, do you drag the clutch the whole time? I also consulted my dealer (very reliable) and they didn’t know of any issues. They requested information from Lotus directly and, as always, that seemed to have gone nowhere. I bet they would argue there isn't a...

    Smashed driver side window

    Excuse me? Based on my latest loaner car for warranty work this is a perfectly acceptable Emira replacement and at least on-par if not better :coffee:

    Rattle from rear glass area?

    After 3 years I get all sorts of rattles and creaks from behind. I have postponed fixing it to the next season :ROFLMAO: These are my mine culprits. Where the leather meats the plastic surround of the metal mesh it gets creaky. I validated this my shoving some cloth under the trim. The glass...

That’s all I'm saying :D Piggy was never a question for me, I've been waiting for a real solution for a looong time Let me know if you want to establish an EU based outpost, I'm sure we can...

    Buzzy Blarp Sound when Engine Braking

    I know. Too bad I let it slide with "doesn't happen if I don't cause it" and should've pursued it like every other problem. I think my chances of getting it covered now are very slim. There have been warranty clutch replacements before, so Lotus should know something. But they play very hard...

    Buzzy Blarp Sound when Engine Braking

    Shit I might have just heard it for the first time when letting it slowly engage while parking. I don’t like that.. at all. 38,554 km now and surely no misuse on the clutch. Maybe should have been hard on it, gonna be a real pain to get this approved with 3 months warranty left and that...

    Unable to change aircon blower options

    Either resistor failure (already had this fixed) or broken actuator buried in the dashboard (fix due in November, the entire thing has to come out..........) Can you still control the temperature and/or fan speed? If temp is stuck you likely have a resistor failure. If it can be controlled and...

    Buzzy Blarp Sound when Engine Braking

    Try to understand my pot in #11, maybe look at some clutch assembly pictures and talk to chatgpt if you’re interested. I'm pretty sure about my guess as to what’s producing the sound. Why I don’t know, but I don’t think it’s a problem. Rev match when downshifting and you should be good
