    FK8 Check your tyres properly on full lock

    Went to get my tyres checked yesterday after 5000 miles as they were looking a little worn but still legal across the width of the tyre. I thought I might have a hundred miles left in them but when checked on full lock they were very bald and down to the tyre threads. No rubber left at all...

    EP3 FK8 exhausts

    Hey Dotty, Have you had your HKS fitted yet? I'm thinking about one for mine. Just after a few thoughts from someone that's already taken the leap.

    FK8 New FK8 owners Q&A - everything you want to know and dare to ask here

    I think it depends on how you unlocked the car in the first place. If you just use the key proximity and open the door the other doors and boot remain locked. If you opened all the doors by pressing the fob twice then the boot should open while the engines running.

    FK8 Traction Control / VSA / Wheel Spin (R+ Mode) - FK8

    Well if you're impressed now it'll probably blow your mind when it gets to the spring. This car definitely prefers nice warm dry roads.

    FK8 Traction Control / VSA / Wheel Spin (R+ Mode) - FK8

    Nope, not really noticed that. I promise to try harder in the future :-) I have noticed a bit of wheelspin even in 3rd occasionally though. Saying that the roads are rubbish at the moment and there is a huge difference driving the FK8 on these greasy roads. How long have you had yours. Have...

    FK8 Traction Control / VSA / Wheel Spin (R+ Mode) - FK8

    I'm not 100% sure what you mean but you can definitely tell theres a little bit of diff magic going on if you get aggressive coming out of corners! The front inner wheel just seems to tuck itself in nicely. Quite a few times I've thought how did I manage that :-) And that's from an X Subaru...

    FK8 Traction Control / VSA / Wheel Spin (R+ Mode) - FK8

    I only ever use +R mode and see the same as you especially if the roads are a little greasy. I've learnt to be a little less binary and less aggressive with my right foot. Feeding the power in slightly more progressively certainly reduces the wheelspin and is just as quick in the end. That's...

    Rather presumptuous of you :-) I met this couple when I was ordering mine. Lovely people!!!! They were driving an FK2 at the time and loving every moment of it!

    Press the "i" button on the steering wheel then use the left/right arrow keys on the wheel to cycle through the options. You'll eventually come to the Accelerator Position/Braking Pressure Meter option. Press Enter if thats the one you want to show on the dash.

    Where does it get fitted? Surely if it's that easy to remove it's pretty pointless as a security/antitheft feature!

    I was offered the dongle but read the small print and decided not to bother. Terms and Conditions can be found here...

    Ahh! Autostart/stop :-) I never even knew mine had that! I only ever use +R mode :-) Handbrake is a faff! Nearly 2 months in mine and I'm still not used to it! Has anyone tried a handbrake turn yet? Is it possible?

    What's the Auto Cut Out? I've started mine hundreds of times and I'm not sure what you're referring to!

    There's already holes in the correct place in the carpet. You just need to snip out a little square where the holes are to fix the plastic fittings through.
