That is amazing you were offered that. I would jump at the chance to even pay for a 10 year warranty.

It will be the 2.0 AMG version for sure. I was at Lotus in Central London Friday evening and they confirmed the V6 won't be coming back. If you own one don't be in a rush to sell it because it will be collectable. The sales guy also said sadly they are only going to concentrate on electric...

Do you have any pictures of the lighting you have done?

What's done: Aerie lightweight wheels Full PPF and decals Nitron fast road shocks Carbon engine surround GRP hub centric spacers GRP quick shift Miltek full exhaust with valve controller 3rd cat bypass pipe Planning to do: Tillett seats Eventuri intake JUBU front splitter and swan neck wing...

Hi KitKat, how are you getting on without the pads and do you prefer the seating height?

I have just had an email from the dealer saying they have been instructed to fit a new PCM, ECM, and spark plugs. Let's see how long it will take just to get the parts in. :unsure: if I deduct the miles driven going to and from the dealer and for the spraying & PPF I have only done 1600 miles in...

I did change the wheels to Aerie V2 and fitted Cup 2 Connect tyres which were wider than the Goodyear tyres but on paper the same size.

They look great and just the right stitching colour for mine. :cool: Were they hard to install and did it cost mush on top of the seat?

I had GT done mine 10 months ago when I had ppf and ceramic coating as part of the full interior treatment option an no white powder. Asking an experienced detailer is a good idea and you could start by posting on a detailers forum. Maybe somewhere like this which has a lot of GT users...

This is plenty low enough for me because I intend to get the JUBU splitter fitted once I decide on the viability of a front lift system.

What a mess 😝

100% this would be a bad idea due to being a COSHH risk by cutting through a cat internal causing dust from multiple types of metal, some being chemically treated. The bypass pipes are $250 on average and if you have to sell it back to a dealer stock you can sell the pipe. If they don’t say...

Here is a very impressive video showing the strength of the JUBU front splitter. If you had any other type would you dare do that even on your own? https://www.youtube.com/embed/984Pn5AF7F4

I have seen a few kits for the Exige, Evora and Emira and all of them were shorter throws. I think you will be hard to find a solution that has OEM throw and it may be the short throw assists the precise gear changes.

I am 15mm + lower and use GRP 12.5mm spacers without issue.

I the lambda sensor faults on both banks at the moment having already has a sensor change in the Summer. It is now into the third week being at the dealer for fault finding and still no joy. So far I have been told Lotus have had data sent to them from a long period of driving to try and...

Was that on a different car? I didn't recognise the wheel or tyre.

I wish :ROFLMAO:

I’m now 2 weeks without the car and so far the only thing I know if the dealer have been going backwards and forwards with Lotus technical providing ecu data. I’ll try ringing them tomorrow but I’m not holding out much hope there is an answer yet. Is there a way I can check to see what work was...

My thoughts also and it is best to clean it of with a anti bacterial cleaner that is safe for food surfaces due to being closer to Ph neutral. I have a company that supplies these types of products to hospitals and I will send you a bottle for free if you pm me your address. (y) This can happen...

I went for the fast road Nitrons which control body roll but do not make it too harsh. I considered the more track focused versions but have done this a few times with road cars and found the handling got worse. You can adjust the shocks to suit.

Can't wait to test mine when it comes back from the dealer.

Nice bit of video editing and sound. What recording and editing kit did you use?

I cleaned a previous Eventuri filter at 5000 miles and the dirt that came off it was very minimal. This was normal road conditions and not a dusty dry area.

A bit of an update for my next issues. Well I took the car back to the PPF company to inspect and on the way home the engine management light came on and shortly after the reduced RPM. I booked in in with my dealer expecting this to be the same issue as previously where the ECU does not like...

I understand why they bought the AMG engine if they own part of Merc but it's a shame they weren't linked to Audi and could have bought the 5 cylinder engine with manual or DCT options. There would have been no need for 2 engine options and other brands like the KTM with a 530hp model: It...

Just checking to see if anyone has had an issue with their Milltek valve controller? Mine has stopped working and I cannot find where the spare remote is (put in a safe place, which is so safe I can't find it :LOL:). I have opened it and see it has an unusual A27 size battery which I have now...

I would not be surprised if Lotus slow down the production of the V6 until the production finishes. I am sure the yearly changes to emissions in Europe will be the downfall because they won't want to spend money on R&D for both models.

I am surprised it didn't blow your head gasket with that amount of fluid loss. At least it should be an easy fix and I am sure you will be checking the coolant level regularly moving forward.

Easy done 😂 At least no one tells you off on here unlike some other forums.

Are you saying the rotors are aluminium or just the bells because I noted you described as hand anodised?

Did you manage to get a replacement from a forum member? I’d be interested to know how much Litus would charge and if they sold the parts separately? There are places that repair plastic cracks or you can get products and do it yourself. I’d consider fixing and seeing how much it is to have it...

I totally get you will the seating especially the dead pedal part because I have size 11 wide fitting. Will you have enough room for the pedals if you widen the dead pedal? I’m mindful in the US your pedals are closer together.

I have just emailed them to ask the question and will post their reply.

It appears they can build a shock to incorporate a lift kit but you need to have it. This could be really expensive if we need to buy for example a 911 lift kit for Nitron to work on.

That’s very annoying but not unusual even with other brands. Can anyone confirm if in the UK we are supposed to get a trickle charger or not because the dealer said we don’t? Seems odd if we don’t and the US owners do.

You are probably right on the under tray pushing the bumper. One thing I was surprised with was the fact the bumper had non adjustable push fittings and not even self tappers or bolts to hold in place like most mainstream car brands.

Good idea regarding the pre cleaner but you shouldn’t be getting this issue on OEM. The filters and nothing special and conform to the standard Toyota specifications for the engine warranty. I agree with the point on running performance oiled filter although I only had the issue after re oiling...
