    New software update released - has anyone had it yet?

    I don’t think you can turn it completely off, just the option to keep it off when you switch engine off, but then you must Remember to manually press the p brake button esp if you’re on a slope! I find it very useful and auto hold releases immediately you move off in the car if it was on a slope...

    Use of electric parking brake

    I have mine set to Off so that it doesn’t automatically come on when I park it in my level garage. 2 reasons for this, I can manually push the car in either direction and also to stop the brakes sticking if the car has slightly wet discs. I always run the car up and down the hill outside the...

    New software update released - has anyone had it yet?

    Why would the clutch wear more? If you have to stop at a junction uphill your foot will be on the brake pedal and car in neutral. When you move off, select 1st gear and move foot from brake to throttle and the auto hold allows you to do this without physically having to put the parking brake on.

    How hard is to change the rear window?

    For what it’s worth Emiro, my first Emira had no privacy glass, but did have electrical problems, it was an early build. Lotus supplied me with a replacement car, my exact spec apart from this one having privacy glass. For me, I actually prefer my current car with it, but it’s not a deal breaker...

    Manual shifting improvements

    It is probably just down to how the cables were set up and adjusted. The change quality between cars does vary considerably. I know this because I am on my 2nd Emira due to problems with the first one. Current car has a very slick change, way better than the first one which used to be difficult...

    Lightweight battery

    Certainly adds lightness to your wallet at those prices. Not sure even the most skilful of test drivers would notice a 12kg difference, but if you’ve got the spare cash, then why not I spose 😂😂

    📓 Journals My DV Emira and modifications

    New rear glass looks so much better than the tinted one, I don’t blame you for changing that at all! My first Emira had no privacy glass and my current new replacement car has it, and I prefer it with the privacy glass, having now had both.

    📓 Journals It Finally Arrived down-under

    Hill hold assist should work in either reverse gear or first gear - it works fine on mine as I have to reverse up our drive into the garage up hill, which is quite steep. If your drive is steep enough for the hill hold assist to work in 1st gear then it should also work in reverse. Looks like a...

    Don’t forget to plug in your CarPlay

    My Pixel 4a connects by Bluetooth within a few seconds but if I am out for a longer drive and playing music then I have a short usb cable in the arm rest which also works fine and charges the phone

    Emira Issues - from final production cars

    Thanks for that. Just took the car out and all warning lights went off about a mile after start up and have now remained off after a couple of stops and restarts. Think I’ll still get dealer to look at it as they are only half hour away, although they haven’t returned my call………

    Emira Issues - from final production cars

    Just on 1400 miles in mine and I have had ABS and TCS lights come on a few times but they had been clearing after a few re starts, but now are permanently on. It seems to be linked to the hand brake as I initially had a warning msg pop up to say that the hand brake and ABS need a service. Now...

    Have Lotus Customer Care gone to ground?

    My 2p from today. I phoned them twice, firstly at just after 10 to request a towing eye plug for the front grill which was missing when I picked the car up. 2nd call was to get the paint code for my Nimbus grey car. Sorted in 2 mins 👍
