    Where has the cover gone?!

    Yep. See part number here. You can give that part number to your dealer and they’ll order it for like $40. Or just order it from bell & covill in the UK. Mine actually broke twice I absolutely hate that design. Once you un clip it it’s impossible to clip back on without breaking the little...

    Feels slower than 400bhp

    Any issues with the JUBU 440? Last I heard there was still some issues for the US market and it didn’t sound like it was ready for prime time

    Paint issues? Does Your Car Live in a Garage or Outside?

    Silly question, would it possible to drill drain holes at the bottom of the door yourself? (Taking steps to make sure the holes don’t rust lol) Years ago I had a Jeep TJ that was notorious for collecting water on the frame and owners were drilling small holes in the frame so the water could...

    Increased cabin noise with 3rd cat straight pipe?

    Yes it increases the cabin noise for sure. But, many folks feel like it’s the perfect amount of noise for a sports car. Loud enough without being obnoxious. And yes that’s the drawback. Because it’s louder it takes away from the super charger whine. You can still hear it, just less than before

    Changing radio inputs with steering wheel controls

    Yeah I get that from time to time too. When I press the source button to switch back to my iPhone it’ll just toggle through am AM/FM. I need to turn the car off and open the door to deactivate the CarPlay and then I start the car again and it’s normal. Definitely a bug and hoping an upcoming...

    Lotus Emira 3.5L V6 Oil Change How-to Video

    Hell yeah it can be done on ramps. I’ve done 2 oil changes on the Emira thus far. Make sure you get that angled funnel too. Makes it so much easier to pour in the new oil

    Clutch slave bleeding tips

    Generally you should do a brake fluid flush every 2 years or so but most folks are doing it earlier if you track the car

    Is it weird I like driving it a lot more than modern 911's?

    Nice write up! Would you recommend the Porsche experience? I’ve considered it in the last

    Clutch slave bleeding tips

    Did you do tires first then clutch? So it would be RR, LR, RF, LF then clutch?

    Clutch slave bleeding tips

    Gotcha. Did you access the clutch nipple from above like other members? Btw do you have flared wrenches did you’d recommend?

    emira steering wheel button group buy

    They do the same exact things but the hard buttons are sooo much better. No more accidentally pausing songs or pressing an unintended button

    Lightweight battery

    Yeah that’s right. To be clear too, it was tight fit on my Evora GT. No idea if the battery tray is exactly the same for the Emira. Assuming yes given the rest of the car though

    Lightweight battery

    Not impossible just very tight. The most annoying part was when I had to do work on the car, you can’t just disconnect the negative terminal as it’s too tight. You need to unbolt the tray the battery it sits on etc

    Clutch slave bleeding tips

    How did this work out for you, did you bleed the clutch first before the brakes? I’ve been reading up on this and it looks like in earlier Evoras you needed to access the nipple from underneath and was a complete pain. Seems like this is as easy as reaching into the engine compartment...

    The definitive Hawk Brake Pad guide, with Low dust option

    Installed these pads a few hundred miles ago and they are legit. They have a progressive brake feel, definitely less grabby and much less dust than the OEM pads.

    The inevitable faster Emira

    Omg this topic again. One day it’s v6 discontinued I’ve been told by a reliable source and the next day someone says they heard the opposite from their reliable source. Then lotus dealers release communication that is completely different and no one knows what happening. It’s crazy really

    Sick mods! I’m from NJ and would love to give it a go at NJMP. I’m out of town May 18 but down to go whenever else. Really want to see that JUBU wing too btw!

    Window issues

    Oh man I hope it’s not the problems that the Evora faced with the window regulator. That regulator went out in earlier evoras and was costly to find that regulator. When I had my Evora I had the same thing. Window would have a mind of its own until it finally gave out. Worst case scenario is it...

    Paint issues? Does Your Car Live in a Garage or Outside?

    Good idea on the thread. I’ve thought about the exact same thing. I suspect that MOST owners have a garage and don’t let the car get wet (likely because they don’t daily it). My hunch is that if you leave the car outside, high probability it will experience paint issues

    Hi all, first post here as not yet in an Emira but really want to be…

    Doesn’t every single car manufactur warranty expire after about 3 years? If your dealer doesn’t offer extended warranty then just consider going through a third party.

    What did you do to your Emira today?

    No, mine wasn’t loose it fit nicely but I heard other forum members get loose ones. I think I remember them saying the crumbled up something around the trim so it fit more tightly.
