Any update on the driver and pass mats?

Just another data point for the fuel gauge. When I put the car in the garage last time it said i had 60 miles of range left. Figured I had plenty to get to work which is 35 miles. Soon as i left the driveway it went to 50. Wasnt driving hard at all and it went to 10 about 10 miles from gas...

Try adjusting your fan speed while its clunking. Also try to change where the air is coming out (dash, floor, top etc) see if that makes a diff. If just the fan though it should be there whether the AC is on or not. a weird issue for sure. You might not be hearing the noise when moving due to...

Had this issue recently on drvr side, the bottom is still attached so the top part is just gapped a bit. Anyone who's gotten theirs fixed are they just replacing the panel or has Lotus come up with a proper redesign? I'll just leave mine as is (unless gets worse) or until a TSB/recall comes.

If I remember correctly it only came with 2 and the length is barely enough to attach a thin plate. If you're going to attach a frame you will probably need longer screws. Dont remember the size of them but that info is probably on here. Youll prob have a temp plate anyway so can go match them...

Yes, but just realized I deleted mine. :(

From the owners manual. Lotus recommends that your vehicle is only washed by hand. CAUTION: Automatic car washers and jet washers may damage thepaint finish. Damage caused by using them will not be covered under the terms of the vehicle warranty.

I meant no way one should exceed that duration from dealer recommendation in that case. More track use would requiring doing all the fluids even more frequent.

The official Lotus service schedule I got from my dealer says every 2 years or 20k miles. FWIW. If you track it or lots of spirited driving at all I would stick to that guideline.

Are the front floormats still in work or development? Any timeline estimate?

If it takes a 7mm hex socket it looks like a diffuser screw that is common to the underbelly pan (that remove for oil change). I believe those are m5x0.8x (25/20). Those are towards the back of the belly pan and front of the diffuser. You should be able to see if you're missing any of those. by...

I'm 6'6" with size 13 as well. Was relieved first time sat in the Emira demo and fit easily. Have never felt cramped or tight in the Emira. Except when attempted to wear a helmet. The pedals did seem a bit tight but have gotten used to them finally (with track shoes). I had a NA1 NSX and had...

Got my car in March 24. Hadnt used wipers (except accidently swipe once) since then. Got caught in torrential downpour on way back from dealer appt last week. Noticed exact same shuttering/juddering in medium to heavy rain. Thought they just used really cheap wiper rubber or something or got...

I had the same experience and issue. When I drove the early cars (USA test drives/demos) and looked at them, the mirrors would not go out far enough for my seating position which is all the way back. I started thinking about a way to modify the mirrors. When I got my car (March 24) the mirrors...

Since you lost the spare you might want the dealer to at least cut/get you a new emergency blade that is stored in fob itself (for future use too). Not sure if they can cut just the blade part but worth an ask. Since youre down to one fob you might want to remove the emerg blade from that fob...

When I did the driving academy back in June '23 they were testing one on the track at the same time. We had stop driving on the track while it was out there. It was pretty cool to see on the track though. Very little noise of course. Only one Ive seen in person. Not a fan of the rear but its...

If you search for driving academy youll find some good info. I did it back in 2023 so its prob been tweeked some. Overall I thought the total experience was worth it before getting the car but it was kind of expensive for what you get I thought...

https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/cruise-control-speedometer-vs-google-maps-speedometer-don%E2%80%99t-match-so-which-is-correct.5304/#post-153252 Definitely a few MPH over indicated vs actual.

https://www.emiraforum.com/threads/head-light-on-dash-light-always-on.4568/ Unfortunately it seems like its always on regardless. Very dumb to me. Wish could turn it off (even with dealer s/w) since it basically serves no function.

Also had trouble seeing it illuminate on mine like others if bright out. You also get a confirmation (the AC icon) the AC is on on the center display screen when its on the HVAC screen.

I noticed the same thing on 2 of them i think on the rears (both sides) when i took the bumper off. Didnt make sense to me...but Lotus.

My GR86 had these stupid fake sounds. There was a separate module for it that was easy to unplug. I did the day after I got it home. The dealer could also turn it off in their software. Disappointing to hear Lotus is doing this.

My pocket. Never had an issue with proximity even in left pocket.

Reread this and noticed this. I didnt think there was a low oil warning light on the V6 (should be one). I know the AMG has a elec dipstick so should have one..edit: it comes up as a message warning on the AMG. The manual says there is only a low oil pressure warning but no level warning. (v6)...

Been 1 year ago today (Pretty sure) since the US dealers were told they could sell the cars..after a long CARB wait. I got mine a year ago on March 6th. Just rolled over 3k miles Saturday. Only (1 temporary ESC limp mode) quirk in first year.

I think that is an automatic car in manual mode in 3rd gear. I had to go check. Never noticed that light on my manual car.

Mine sometimes works and sometimes doesnt backing into the garage with a slight incline. Its random. Not sure on steeper inclines as it also seems intermittent. There is no light (on the manual v6) that comes on like in other cars to say its working/active. I dont believe you can turn it off or...

On #2. I've had a '23 GR86 and have a 24 Tacoma. Car play works whether the car is moving or not. Never heard of that. #1. Pretty sure neither had that issue either. The Emira CarPlay is not locked out if the car is moving or any mode once its working.

It is not possible to swap the exhaust tips ( i did it and looked for a work around) without full bumper removal. The problem is the crash pad foam under the bumper which covers several items for the tips. Its really not a bad job to do just idiotic Lotus designed the tips that way. See...

Are those pics before you did the oil filter change? Was there any drips on the ground to indicate any drips? I had oil on the bottom of my filter like that after the filter change but it is because i lubed the o-ring seal too well it weaped down to the bottom like that but went away after...

So you're planning to keep both of them?

Have always been a fan and lusted after the 12C, P1 and now the 720/750s. The ownership costs have deterred that on used ones I could afford. The Artura is nice looking but I think the Emira actually looks better except maybe the back. And the cool doors of course.

Seeing this thread reminded me I got some new shoes to try. I got them (I think $25) on flash Christmas sale on Amazon. I wear a 13 so find normal shoes a bit wide to wear as I'm hitting the gas accidently when braking. These are maybe 1/4 inch narrower than the Chuck Taylors I had been...

I think you have it backwards. Crestima said his build was 11/23 and mine is 12/23. I think the holes like mine are there on newer ones. Water definitely runs out of there after washing the car and someone else had video of it. If someone with a much newer build could look that would help...

My blue photo (my VIN 11320 build 12/23). :) Sometimes those grommets (on other cars too) are also used for tooling access to remove things internally to the door. (regulators etc) Seems like I remember looking at the service manual and those plugged holes seem like they were used for that...

The MR2 wont be more capable than the Supra and it wasnt really a real competitor to the Emira. Might hurt sales if offered somewhat the same experience but rumors are it will be pure EV (hope not) so no real manual. Been watching new MR2 development as I had a 93 turbo. All of these photos are...

Did you put a multimeter on it to see if any volts? Sometimes trickle chargers wont charge a really flat battery if not over a few volts. A jump pack shouldve worked though so it may have internal continuity issues now. Remove from the car and use a good battery charger with a desulfating...

After a certain VIN number the EVAP water shields were added from the factory. Given yours was built recently it should have had it installed then. It was supposed to be a short term fix until they designed the components to be more water resistant. May not be your issue as it primarily...
