    Software update improved sound?

    I just had my Emira in for warranty “software updates”. One took several hours and the other was the most recent update, which was quick. I asked the tech what they did and was told everything related to improving security, to make the systems less hackable. He said the car software is...

    What did you do to your Emira today?

    Finally had detailer put on ceramic coat: 16 months and ~14,000km (8,700 miles) later, just in time to park it for the winter months. Same detailer did total wrap right after car purchased but said to wait a year for ceramic coat, for best results. Detailer also cleaned/treated interior n/c so I...

    ‘26 Emiras are expected to be $5k higher. With all these increases, what will it eventually do to the value of our ‘24’s?

    I think the answer is mostly based upon future demand, compared to what Lotus produces. So the usual "supply and demand" issue. Then there are many factors that come into play which impact demand, such as what else is out there for sport car options buyers can choose from (ie. manual...

    VF Tuner - Upgraded Supercharger Lid

    Red or unfortunately I’m out and need a refund. I waited months to have my OEM lid powder coated red and won’t do that again. I assumed red had been chosen already.

    Initial Results after adding Tweeters

    Thanks for the comparison silent cilantro and trying to reconcile the different postings. I know my wire coloring is accurate, however I can't swear by the polarity. All I know is my tweeters work AOK as set-up. I tested each speaker, before finalizing the wiring connections and doing clean-up...

    What things annoy you on Emira?

    The original OP video mentions only 2 speakers in the car (one each door). Another poster on this thread said there are 2 in the back. There are actually 3 in the back. See photos: in N. American vehicles (left hand drive) there are 2 on the rear passenger side and one on the rear driver side...

    My emira lets out a high pitched whistle when I lightly press upon the gas pedal. What is this?

    Welcome to the Forum rowenofpts. No such "squeaking" upon light acceleration, with mine. But I've had something similar with other vehicles: -it could still be your brakes, if they're down to the metal "wear bars". You don't need to be braking, to get this warning sound. I'm assuming the...

    Toyota for check engine light?

    The scanner menu simply says "Lotus", then it recognizes and populates the Emira VIN. So it doesn't say "Emira" and I can't recall if there's anything else on the scanner about the vehicle (such as its year). It then downloads from the ECU and provides info on what I assume are the basic...

    DIY - Oil Change Reference for 2GR-FE

    I'll start by saying I only use the designated manufacturer jack points, to be 100% certain I'll not damage anything. That's just me, so you choose otherwise as others have done. I had 2 low profile floor jacks which I used on my other sport cars. Unfortunately, I can use them only on the rear...

    VF Tuner - Upgraded Supercharger Lid

    Purchased supercharger lid, so we're now up to 4? My thanks to VF Tuner for designing a nice product for the Emira. If you look back at my original post #5 on this thread, I was asking for the red color. Many thanks!
