    Unable to change aircon blower options

    Interesting, thank you. I'm concerned that it seems to work for a while at first, then stops - worried they'll fob me off saying it's working! Do you know specifically what was replaced?

    Unable to change aircon blower options

    Hello, Wondering if anyone else has had this issue... Aircon blows nice and cold, no problems at all, can change all the settings and everything works fine. But then after a while, you can hear it blowing but it's almost like it's blowing behind the dash... nothing comes out of the front vents...

    Software updates between Apr and May

    Had mine updated the other week too. One of the fixes was for the limited telematics issue. The other was when using a high grade fuel (99 RON for me) and on cold start being rough / nearly stalling. I also had an issue with my alarm randomly going off (only happened once), and apparently one...

    Cold start stalling

    I can confirm the software fix installed last week fixed the issue for me - along with the 'Limited Telematics' error.

    Cold start stalling

    Just to jump in on this one.. I started having this issue. Car ran fine once started, but if left it off for a couple of days the start would seem like it would stall. Battery was definitely fine (checked voltage), and also kept it on trickle. I changed from Shell's VPower (E5 / 99 RON) which...

    Alarm going off for no reason

    So little update... still hasn't done this again (but not had another wash yet either!) Lotus customer support got back in touch: didn't tell me much apart from get it booked in to the dealer. Called the dealer, it's booked in, but I'm waiting nearly 2 months until they can take a look. I...

    Battery Tender Installation

    You just push it all the way down, with a key (but I think you could use your finger too), just like the metal latch would normally push it all the way down.

    Alarm going off for no reason

    Was it after washing too?

    Alarm going off for no reason

    Possibly, I was going to do it with the car unlocked. The alarm is incredibly loud, I had to go grab some ear plugs when I was trying to get it to stop!

    Alarm going off for no reason

    Locked the car this morning - thought I'd see if the alarm would go off before trying to disconnect the battery...... No trigger.... tried a couple of times, no problem, back to normal. I've emailed Lotus regarding the issue, and when it's not raining I'll look to see if the shroud has been...

    Alarm going off for no reason

    Makes sense. I'll look for the shroud - is there a diagram or picture for what to look for exactly? Thanks for your suggestion too - I guess I'll have to give the dealer a call on Monday either way. I was also going to try disconnecting the battery for a bit - see if it helps reset anything.

    Alarm going off for no reason

    Is this the likely culprit then? Is there any way I can check myself? My nearest Lotus dealer is 40 mins away.

    Alarm going off for no reason

    I'm not sure - I thought that only affected the heater resistor? It was literally in for a service less than a week ago though - they did perform a campaign / recall on the charcoal filter / evap line? I can pop the front and inspect tomorrow (if there's a gap in the rain!)

    Alarm going off for no reason

    Did you ever resolve this? I've just started having issues after giving the car a wash. Had a good run out today (about 4 hours), and drove it after washing too.... but every time I lock it, the alarm goes off after about 10 seconds. All doors definitely closed... no warnings on dash...

    Why does the Emira not have stop start?

    Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy about it. But I kind of assumed it was mandatory on newer vehicles?

    Steering Wheel Lock?

    I'll revive an old thread because why not. I have an elite pro, fits lovely! However, I wanted to ask, where do you keep it loose when not fitted? It slides around in the space behind the seats for me. In older cars I've kept it under the front seat leaning against the back seat, but there's...

    Fitting a battery conditioner... Do's and Don'ts

    Same setup I have (pictured here). 1) Yes the AGM option for our battery. You don't need to turn it off/on, the CTEK manages this for you. It only charges when needed, otherwise just monitors the battery state. You can leave it as long as you need, don't worry about it. 2) Should be fine. I...

    Virgin media access issue from the UK

    Cheers. Yeah it's fine for me on my phone using the Vodafone connection, it's just via my Virgin hub when not using a VPN.

    Virgin media access issue from the UK

    Hi Folks, I recently joined the forum and wanted to highlight an issue I've been experiencing. It seems for my IP on Virgin Media I'm getting a Cloudflare block page, the only way I can access the forum is via a VPN. I tried to get in touch with one of the admins to no avail - thought I'd try...

    Fitting a battery conditioner... Do's and Don'ts

    This is how I fitted mine just now. Used the ground on the battery mount and just attached another 10mm nut on top of the existing exposed positive. No battery disconnect required.

    Used buyers guide?

    Hey folks, I'm new here. Looking to buy an Emira imminently. I've been trying to find a used buyers guide. Looking at one for 1 or 2 years old, so typical things I should check for that should have already been sorted under warranty. I've heard of paint issues and cracking windscreens...
