Plastic Film Saved Our Lotus Emira from Damage!
Lotus Emira PPF Assessment: During our Post PPF travels the front of the Emira was Brutally hit with a piece that broke off from a car infront...The Plastic Film Saved The Car from major Damage!
We took the Emira back to Topaz to have the new PPF checked and for additional PPF to be fitted. Topaz perform a ‘First Wash’ post PPF installation to assess the PPF and I must say they did a fantastic job and as you can see here, the car came out ‘New Again’!
I also provide an update on progress fixing the 3 main issues with our car.

    Hi Rich, I have the same EcoAir DD128 dehumidifier and a couple of points i) To make use of cheap electricity hours (12:30am to 05:30am) I have it running from a plug-in timer which is set to be on for those 5 hours, however I have the run duration timer on the dehumidifier set to 4 hours. So, the dehumidifier comes on at half-past midnight, goes off four hours later and then onto it’s cool down for a few mins. Of course, power from the socket goes off almost an hour later - seems to work. ii) I tried using a continuous drain tube but had a few problems. Firstly, the dehumidifier needs to be raised to provide a gravity flow for the water to drain. And secondly the spigot for the tube is part of the drain pan assembly (I don’t mean the water tank). The tube was quite tight when pushing it on and in doing so I dislodged the drain pan which caused the dehumidifier to leak badly. I had to take it apart and reseal the drain pan to the main body with some watertight sealant. If you do attach a tube I would remove the water tank so you can reach the drain pan and support it as you push the tube on (you will need to manually open the little drip cut off flap), perhaps even dip the tube in a cup of boiling water for a few seconds to soften it. Rgds Richard…

    Try using something as basic as their website. Its a total embarrassment for a car company to have something as basic as a website that doesnt work. V6's get I4 quotes, the quotes add 5k more deposit than you put in a calculator, the filtering barely works. the finance is wrong and it goes on. Its pretty much putting me off an Emira now and think il go for a Porsche. IMHO if you cant even have a working website what hope is there for the cars

  • @simonbussey7530
    @simonbussey7530 3 дні тому

    Many cars will produce codes and diagnostic information at a level below what a cheap generic code reader will read. To read them you would normally buy a specialist tool. Do you know if this is the case with the Emira? And if it depends on the engine variant of the car? For example Mercedes diagnostics requires a STARS or clone/copy reader to access a lot of diagnostics info.
