    I4 Turbo Trans Update

    "are you refering to the transmission update everyone is waiting for or is this something new?" Whatever updates were made to the 26 model is the one ready to be distributed. It was suppose to be an August release per lotus but delayed due to cost liability - that's the way is was explained to...

    I4 Turbo Trans Update

    Fyi... Spoke with lotus engineering and there's a dct software update waiting for release. Its the current version in the 26 car. Lotus is trying to figure who will pay for it, the customer as an update or Lotus as a retro fit. Im told within next couple of months. I doubt we get notice...

    Just passed the break-in mileage - impressions

    After the jb4 install, my tuner took it out and was completely blown away losing traction at highway speeds ....she's fast with real visceral impact. And to think the turbo variant was considered the base model, lol

    Steering Wheel Oscillating

    Thank you.....i thought the i4 was electro-hydraulic and V6 was without pump

    Steering Wheel Oscillating

    Sounds simple as that but have had it rebalanced both ny Lotus and my local shop. I was just wondering if it was a byproduct of hydraulic steering, it's an I4. I'll bring to another shop and see how it plays out.

    Steering Wheel Oscillating

    Hey Is anyone experiencing their steering wheel oscillating quickly intermittently? Upon delivery I found the toe and castor off at front left. That was addressed which cured steering wheel alignment. We checked the road force balance on the 2 front tires, L was 30, R was 10. Lotus...

    Auto only: Turbo vs V6?

    Well then by your logic, 3 things can also be true at the same time for the turbo... 1. Driving experience 2. Emotional connection 3. Achieving performance numbers I experience this everyday... well, mostly late at night!😀

    Auto only: Turbo vs V6?

    As an I4 owner, I'm having a bit of trouble with the above logic....Plaid, used Mclarens, etc. over the 100k I4 just because buyer has appetite for a DCT? The absolute only reason to buy the V6 is that you like to row your own gears, that is it! Every other objective measure leans towards the...

    'Centering' steering wheel top notch

    Go to local shop.....this fix would only require front wheel alignment, 100 bucks or so. Good luck!

    'Centering' steering wheel top notch

    I had same issue upon delivery but wheel had left offset....tracked fine down road. Alignment chk confirmed toe/castor off. Car aligned, wheel perfect. Also, driver front tire confirmed 30 on road force balance. Both alignment and tire covered under warranty.

    Icon Rocklear better than PPF?

    I was looking hard into that product but decided against it. In order to remove, your car would need a complete wet sand. Not sure I'd trust that but my friend applies it to all his cars.
