All sorted. Unbelievably Mick sorted my issue super quickly - the relay holder that clips on the left hand side of the battery box had come away and dropped down, jamming itself in the gear change mechanism. Thankfully nothing got broken or shorted out - and now my gearbox is totally fine. To...

Random question (maybe!) - do the 200's have an enhanced induction noise system that pumps it into the cabin? I'm certainly not looking for more noise, just something I'm curious about. Cheers !

Thanks for the replies everyone. I've booked the car in to see Mick at Diamond - earliest availability is the 25th of Feb which is a long wait, but by the sounds of it going to him is the best route. Cheers!

thanks fella I'll have a look :smile:

Hi folks, I need to get someone decent to look at my RS to try and figure out my 2nd gear issue. Any recommendations? Happy to travel a bit if needed - just want someone honest and reliable! Thanks in advance :)

thanks for all the replies - will take a look and see what's going on. hopefully nothing major as I really can't afford anything horrific...!

Hi all, Currently struggling to get the car into second gear. Often get a crunch or sometimes nothing. No issues with the other gears but what I have noticed is the 'throw' from neutral position on the gearstick going back to 2nd, 4th and 6th seems less distance than that going to 1st, 3rd...

Hi folks, 'I suspected my thermostat wasn't working properly due to the low running temps. Being a bit of a geek I did a 'before and after' data log and from the image below it's obvious how much difference the new thermostat has made. Quite weird really as the old one looked fine with no...

thanks bud - hopefully nothing for me to carry on worrying about! thermostat change tomorrow, let's see how that one goes...

Hi folks, Just changed the gear oil on my RS200. Got 2 litres in and 'to me' the box was full as there seemed to be some oil flowing out of the box when I emptied my last can. But - when I measured back the old stuff (weird but something I always do) there seemed to be about 2.1-2.2 L...

Hi, Have read a few things about the engine running on a 'low power' map before the engine gets up to temperature? If so, when does it kick into normal mode (e.g. 75 degrees or more)? Would be good to know, just out of curiosity... Cheers :-)

thanks very much bud - appreciate your quick reply. makes a nice change for the generic 'FT'...

I'm sure this will have been asked here before but I can't find it in the search bar - What torque should I be using for my wheel bolts? Thanks in advance all :-)

Hi - my Cup has rake adjust only (i.e no reach). I know the 'FF' model has rake and reach but it also has keyless start (and electronic steering lock)... Is there any way of getting reach adjust in a Cup car? I don't really want to use a steering wheel spacer... Any thoughts would be...

ah ok - thanks for the info. don't really want to spend a fiver on the hope something may be there for me (but I understand why you put these things in place) if I do manage to find one, I'll come back and become a paid up member. cheers, Ian B
