This is just speculation, but I think the TSB ID could be "25143" or 131-25143?
Do you have a V6 or I4?
Example of other TSBs/Recalls:
This is useful for Lotus service centers that aren't particularly on top of everything, may be valueable for owners to refer to TSB numbers. Thank you for...
Also take into consideration that the Emira is still a relatively new car to the market and it will need more time for support to mature with the product. This is especially true when it's lower volume.
I am confident the mechanical hardware of the car is still very much user serviceable and...
Checking with the hive if anyone here has/is using multiple sets of wheels (Street/Track or Winter/Summer) on their Emira?
I am inquiring if the TPMS sensors are hardcoded to the car and only 1 set can be programmed?
Or it's not hardcoded and as long as you use the correct Lotus TPMS sensors...
I think this is going to be very subjective and if you're really sensitive to noise, the best course of action is to take a ride in one with the 3rd cat delete to assess.
The exhaust note is more pronounced, but I don't feel it really adds that much more noise or drone. It also depends heavily...
Perhaps it may add rarity, but that doesn't bode well for Lotus support/service. Atleast for those that actually want to drive their cars and not just have it sit as a collector piece. If dealers don't have incentive to sell the brand they're going to pull out.
I don't see this being a positive...
I agree, the documentation is very opaque.
It would be quite valueable if we're able to successfully access the Emira's systems and actually perform dealer level calibrations and or updates. It's not cheap, but at the same time, not that out of reach either.
Same phone platform, similar experience. I've accepted that if I want continuous connection, I'll have to plug it in. I suspect it may be radio frequency intereferences, but what do I know.
It'll be nice if they come up with an update that'll fix it for good.
Darkworks Design shifter boot delete trim arrived today and was a breeze to install.
Just need a T-10 torx to undo the 4 bolts holding the OEM boot trim to the center console and snips to cut the zip tie from the reverse collar.
Took about 10 mins. Most of that was trying to pry the center...
An alternative is using exhaust sealeant. I'm using Permatex 80335 Muffler and Tailpipe Sealer with great results. I don't see any carbon leakage on the joint. Mine was a loose fit, but did not want to expand the pipe in the event I want to change to a GRP Ti exhaust and the tolerances are a...
Has anyone on here utilized the Emira DS diag/prog interface from Lotus Aftersales?
Reading through the Diagnostic README document, I think the Mongoose J2534 "Toyota3" is the appropriate adapter, but curious if anyone on the forums has actually utilized EmiraDS...
I did and you can if you're only looking to replace the fluid. The wheel spokes may limit your wrench range, so that may not work if you're using the box end.
If you have air in the lines and looking to bleed the brakes, it's best to bleed from both bleeders to ensure there's no trapped...
Yes, so that's what I did, sit in the trunk.
You could try a top side creeper if you want to get at it from the top, if not, it'll have to be from the bottom. I only find the top easier from a visual perspective. You can clearly see everything. If you go from underneath, you won't be able to...
I didn't see a guide on replacing/bleeding the Brake/clutch fluid so, I've put one together.

Yes, another Autel user here and aside from the Generic CAN protocol to check for engine codes, I cannot access any other systems in the car.
I also tried selecting Toyota and Volvo protocols without any success.
In my humble opinion, the mechanical parts of the car are standard fare. Nothing overly complicated for the layout.
However, it's the onboard electronics and information systems that I believe will be the test of the car's overall reliability.
Lotus' systems seemed to be pretty locked down at...
Welcome to the forum. We've got a small group of Houston Emira owners connected, so looking forward to having additional local tech support!
Please keep us posted on when the service department will open up.
