    Lotus Emira 2.0 Reverse gear issue

    Cheers for that, I've just rang them and it appears the update was released three days after they carried out the PDI on my car, so I just missed out on it. So they've booked it in for the update in a couple of weeks time.

    I4 (AMG-2.0 Turbo) DCT gearbox software update from LOTUS - mid August 2024

    That's an interesting thought about the power bar only going up to 360bhp, here's a picture of mine and you can see Its indicating 389bhp, but you can also see the power bar does extends a little further to probably somewhere around 400bhp, maybe someone else can confirm when they see 360 on...

    Lotus Emira 2.0 Reverse gear issue

    Could I ask how proactive are Lotus regarding these recalls/updates, are they contacting you or is it a case of you having to contact the dealer to find out about them?

    Popped round to see a mate today, his 600LT is stunning but the Emira doesn’t look out of place next to it. If you take into account the invoice price for the 600LT was just over 300k the Emira looks a bit of a bargain.

    Big thanks to the guys who posted pictures of their cars with the black badges/wheel centres, something I’d not thought about, but after seeing the pictures I really like it, in fact so much so I’ve ordered the parts today👍

    I4 (AMG-2.0 Turbo) DCT gearbox software update from LOTUS - mid August 2024

    That’s really informative, thanks for doing that, I think we need someone with the official 400bhp car to do the same now to see how it compares.

    I know these things are personal, but wow, that looks great, I wouldn’t have that that such a small change would make so much of a difference, think I’ll be putting an order in for them now.

    That looks great, much better than yellow badges. Thanks for posting👍

    Now that’s a great idea, never thought about black badges, but that could work really well👍

    Well to bring this to a conclusion, collected the car today and it’s great to be back in a Lotus, things have definitely moved on from the S1 Elise and Exige I had. Anyway here’s the obligatory photos.

    I4 (AMG-2.0 Turbo) DCT gearbox software update from LOTUS - mid August 2024

    Have a look at the Home Screen, on mine there’s a “performance” icon, select this and it gives the screen you want.

    I4 (AMG-2.0 Turbo) DCT gearbox software update from LOTUS - mid August 2024

    Well picked my new car today and thought I would add to this thread, I’m guessing as it’s a new car it would have had all the latest software installed. Couple of quick impressions, manual gear change seems good, certainly seems quicker than the video posted on “Harry’s garage” but I’ve no...

    I4 (AMG-2.0 Turbo) DCT gearbox software update from LOTUS - mid August 2024

    That's interesting, do you have any details for the update? I'm due to pick my car up next week and would be handy if I could contact them to see if this has been done. Thanks.

    That's a great combination you've got there, mine was a 4.3 which was a great stable mate alongside the Ferrari. In hindsight the only two cars I ever regret selling are the Exige and the Vantage and even my wife agrees with that as they were her two favorite cars as well.

    It certainly was a great car, I owned it for about 13 years but found I was using it less and less, therefore decided to sell, the only thing was I couldn't think of what to replace it with and then the Emira was launched, so that was that, well almost. I was also very lucky I had this to play...

    This replaced the Exige, kept it for quite a while and only sold it to make way for the Emira, which then didn't happen. Well until now:)

    Good to hear that you've no regrets, I did see a few reviews mentioning the gear change and that was the only niggle, but decided to stick with the i4. I was told my car had been ordered as a dealer demo but they were happy to let me have it, it's been preregistered, so I'll be the second owner...

    Long story short, having previously had an S1 Elise and S1 Exige I left the Lotus fold and went off to try something Italian, I didn’t think I would be back in a Lotus as it was a case of having been there and done that, it was time to move on, roll on the Launch of the Emira at Goodwood, WOW...

    Uk car arriving

    Congratulations the car looks fantastic. Could I ask how the handover process works, do they just unloaded the car and give you a chance for a look around before they go on their way or is there a little more too it.

    JayEmms latest speculation

    I think you need you eye’s testing😀 1000% of 28242 is only 28.2 cars in six years 😁 I can see what you’ve done though, you’ve added the 718 of the model designation onto the end of the 28242
