I got a white evora 400 4 months ago and I love it. The steering wheel is a disaster.. I have a leather and alcantara mix on mine. The leather is sticky and the alcantara is spongy and gross. I will be looking at replacing the steering wheel! I have the lowr end audio unit so this will also be replaced during winter. I noticed the limp mode is reset in 5 mins. Turn off the car and lock the doors, unlock and voila. I had a dirty maf sensor and it threw it in limp mode until I cleaned it.
Yes the new steering wheel makes the world of a difference I would highly recommend the company that I used. The carbon fiber steering wheel made the car a different car I can't tell you how much I love the steering wheel. The emira steering wheel is actually nicer but maybe they copied the new steps to the evora as well. I'm going to be putting a lot of carbon fiber on my Emira and we'll be making a new video soon

When you put the battery tender on, you can trigger the latch so it turns off the trunk light. Then reset it with the little latch in the side of the locking mechanism. Dealer showed me it the other day! 😉 Another thing is trying a LiFePo4 battery? I'm thinking of getting one. Its costly but people on LT seem to say it has eliminated or at least reduced the battery tending.
What I've been hearing when I called Lotus a couple of years ago. It really depends on the builder. I've had mine without a trickle charge for 2 months and it started right up. Also the light bulb and gas door are independent issues from builders on the vehicles. Thank goodness I haven't had problems besides the sub par brake switch that seems flimsy.
@@chugchug5657 wow, so you can have the battery last more than a week? Do you lock your car? I leave mine unlocked and on the charger. I wonder if locking the car would help
@@v317865 4-5 days that's nuts. My Evora has 0 draw issues thankfully. It can stay parked in the garage for weeks and start right up when i want it too. There has to be a fix for that. I did some searching for you on the lotus forums but there are tons of different suggestions for various issues. I will say, my cab lights stayed on once even after i closed the doors and walked away. I came back and hour or so later and noticed the dash and interior glow was still on. Maybe radio, amp or even the rear hatch lights you removed could be on when you leave the car. Might be worth the time to just run a multimeter on all the fuses to see if any are drawing power with the car off and key away from you. Wish you luck either way, just found your channel, glad to see some more lotus content on youtube. :)
This car is too old for you now that you have the Emira. Time to get rid of it... PM me (serious). Also, I'm confused as to why you have to send your car all the way down to Naples when you have a dealer in DC and Philly?
DC is a new so I emailed them to make an appointment. Guess they did not care for my business as they never responded. I am thinking of selling it but unsure. The evora seems to be more of a racer then emira.
@@v317865 I guess you're right! There is no way to do that. So you will need to send me an email at theclutch@outlook.com or I can send you a note via LinkedIn.
