The other Emira on the Absolute Lotus Scotland tour I went on recently had a similar issue with the hill hold.

@Emirahep I had no DAB until I did a “refresh”. Have you tried that?Another few weeks and few hundred miles and I still “only” have two issues - wipers and no DAB
Referring to what problem?Same problem today, after 380km. What for fuel do you take?
for the first tank filling i had taken normal Super e95…
after i took Aral ultimate 102…i had the message reduced engine power….After 5km, is this a possibility for this problem…..?
The display of reduced engine power. I parked the car and after 3 hours the message was no longer there. Today however I had after a short tour, the car suddenly Shows me in the Garage the yellow check engine light accompanied by a strange noise in the front of the car. I switched off the engine, but the Engine light was still there, then the front fan started twice.Referring to what problem?
No but I will when I get the car back from the PPF shop on Thurs. thx for the tip. I’ll let you know how I get on.@Emirahep I had no DAB until I did a “refresh”. Have you tried that?
DAB Tuning
So more a “tip” - either I’m a complete idiot or the UX makes this non-obvious… Anyhow I picked my Nimbus Auto up on Wednesday - Scott got the CarPlay working and I didn’t even think to ask about DAB. On the way home I tried to switch to a little bit of KISSTORY and the tuner listed no...www.emiraforum.com
I have heard the same thing - the fix is new wiper motors. Apparently they are waiting for sufficient supply to initiate the recall.Quick info in between:
My dealer told me Lotus is currently sending out new wiper motors. Apparently they know what cars are affected, because not everyone is scheduled for a replacement (yet?). Interestingly I wasn’t on the list but am definitely affected.
Seems like a software fix is finally off the table.
Currently stuck at Membury services on my 3rd drive. Power loss on M4, pulled over to hard shoulder - engine off and on again and power back, engine warning light stayed on.
20 mins at the services, restart engine and the dash lights up like a Christmas tree. ‘ESC temporarily unavailable’ ‘SRS Service urgent’ engine light still on and temp flashing at 90c.
Waiting for roadside assist but added to previous issues that I haven’t reported here yet, I’m not loving life as a Lotus owner right now..
Thanks. Collected the car last month. I’d hoped some of these would have been sorted by now. Fingers crossed it’s a roadside fix!Ugh.. Good luck and keep us posted!

Epic fail as usual, only lotus can manage that.Honestly one of the big attractions of the Emira to me has always been the reliability of the Toyota powerplant, especially given Lotus's decade of experience with it. It's more than a little disheartening to hear about all the problems with limp mode / O2 sensors / throttle valve issues.
Muppets I can’t believe it, the I4 should be a comedy of errors if they can’t sort a drive train they have been using 14 years.
