Yes, I agree completely... I had 996, 997 S and then stopped and went back to 993... the last real Porsche imo. The Emira is with the manual gear shift driving like 20 years ago, but with much more convenience. And the initial problems are almost forgotten. The last half year ... no issues, just...
Hello. I had some problems with my Emira as many other owners too. But this is also the case with many other exotic cars like Ferrari, McLaren or Lamborghini which I also owned before. Porsche is perfect, ok, but you see them all over the city. I have my 993, which I love. It's classic. I liked...
It worked after several tries. I guess the key was press "reset button" and then immediately start engine before message in display shows "reset all warnings"...
Thanks for your hints...
OK, but still there is only the notice that I have to book a service... the tool as shown in the manual didn't appear yet, so I propably have to wait until it appears...
Hello. I got my new emira in october 23. Now it shows in display during start procedere that I have to book a service. I called my dealer and he said this is kind of an issue that lotus made after building was finished. Does anybody know how to delete this issue by myself? I don't like to go to...
Hi. My Emira was brought to Sportivo Leipzig in october 23. They immediately found the reason for ABS and ESC issue. It was the magnetic ring for the ABS sensor at the left rear wheel that caused failure... It was replaced and from there on I never had problems again, but to tell the truth, in...
Well, I don't understand the reason not delivering navigation in Emira infotainment in Australia. But to tell you the truth, I never use it, just using android auto with Google maps navigation (which is much more useful than any other included navigation). And Android or Apple car play can be...
There are very good cars posted by other brands... they are very nice to drive and make fun.
But you see them in every third street... that's the reason why I bought the Emira... most people even never have seen this car... it's technically maybe not as perfect as the Boxster (although with my...
Thanks for answer. Yes, the common issues can be read by most cheap scanners. But there are some scanners (even for Lotus) that are able to read more than issues caused by engine (most scanners can), and I still cannot decide which is the best scanner to buy.
I like my car still, but it would be helpful to have an obd scanner that can read and delete all issues properly in first line (most issues seem to be caused by unstable electricity) . I searched all threads and it seems that all of you use different scanners, so I actually don't know which one...
Hello. As I already told in another thread, my issues were fixed in at Sportivo Leipzig. Very good garage with much "know how" . I would always go there for any issue, but yes... it's quite far away... 250 km from Hannover/Celle.
Lotus Germany told me that they would set up a service center in...
Final update. My Emira was brought to Sportivo Leipzig as I told above. They immediately found the reason for ABS and ESC issue. It was the magnetic ring for the ABS sensor at the left rear wheel that caused failure... It was replaced and the tour back home was just a pleasure. Thanks sportivo...
I called the roadside assistance. They were friendly, but have no idea of Lotus. I thought I get help how to deal with the issue, but only thing they offered was to pick up my car and transport it to the garage... but to tell the truth, any other brand would do the same... Porsche, Ferrari...
Hi Thomas, thanks for your reply. That's probably correct that Leipzig is a perfect garage, but time is wasted and I just would like to drive my brandnew car... hopefully there will be no further problems...
Update: my Emira is now brought from the garage in Hamburg to Leipzig because Hamburg doesn't have capacity for repair... brandnew car cannot be repaired in the garage in HH (lack of time)...
Thanks for your comment. I hope lotus will find the problem on my car. Unfortunately the garage cannot do anything without involving Lotus/England. This takes time... I try to stay optimistic...
Hello, I am Thomas from Celle, Germany. I got my Emira at the end of September and loved the first trips. I have the green one with brown interior leather, yellow brakes and silver rims. That's exactly how I wanted it. Unfortunately I had problems with the ABS and ESC alerts very soon (I posted...
Thanks. Yes, I already told him that I was driving in heavy rain when the issue started... I hope he will check the wiring as you suggested. He told me, they are not allowed to do anything by themselves and have to ask lotus in England for orders. They seem to be very upset about their...
Thanks a lot for your answer? If I need a new ECU, then I can refer to you? Do you have your car in HH too at the moment? How can we both get together? Can I call you by phone? Greets Thomas
Hello,
I am new to this forum. I live in Germany. Bought my Emira 2 weeks ago. It now has 1500 km on the speedometer.
When I went on the "Autobahn" in rain suddenly yellow light went on ABS, ESC and the yellow Alert triangle. It's already in the Lotus garage in Hamburg. Has everyone else similar...
