Air con
That's odd I don't even have the aircon compressor, I gutted the aircon out the engine bay when I have the engine out last. My revs still raise when I engage it though.

Chances of passing an Emissions test?
Most Zeus are decatted, if it fails something not right. It should be tested as precat anyway because its a grey import.

Is it just me, or are the general public getting ruder?
Someone was charged about 18 months for obstruction of justice or something of the like for flashing vehicles to warn of a seed trap. His argument was that it was a potential hazard.

Seriously, you haven't abided by the AUP rules of the forum here. You have not produced a guessing thread nor any photos of your car. There isn't even a mods list. This is not in club spirit. You have 24 hours.

Auto Gearbox, Is It Dead????
Thanks for clarifying jeff seems I was miss informed. Still at least the rest of my advice about the strainer and the fluid was very similar to your own answer. Got something right.

I certainly wouldn't pay to rebuild an auto, so much cheaper to go manual. £3-400 for the kit, new clutch would be a good idea, all depends on what's about it can be done relatively cheaply. Thank you for you consideration in breaking down elsewhere haha.

My Zed does not like going slow
Haha sometimes you can almost hear it whispering at you, floor it, floor it. Really doesn't help once you've got Dump valves, the whole experience is highly addictive.

My Zed does not like going slow
When I converted to manual, its was awful to begin with. The car had to have so many revs to pull off, would judder and then finally pull as normal higher in the range. A massive air leak later... it pulls like a train, pulls away off the clutch alone. Oh and it spools up virtually instantly, not at about 4k lol.

Auto Gearbox, Is It Dead????
Is it an import? Imports have a particularly crap box cooler, its simply a loop a few inches long that passes through the radiator. They weren't ever designed for high speed long motor way journeys, in the Japanese market. This is rectified by the Uk specs by actually having a separate box cooler. The box fluid should be a lovely pink colour, if it smells of burnt toast and its brown, that's a bad thing. There is something you can try that works for some, even if its temporary. In the box is a filter, this blocks with metal fillings etc, clean this change the fluid and it will possibly work for a while. However that being said, the auto boxes are renowned for failure, most of them have had a hard life with those 300 horses going through them. Unless your restricted to an auto for what ever reason I would urge you to convert to manual. Manual box is stronger and more reliable, the car will feel more responsive you've probably been throwing a lot of horses down the drain through transmissional losses. If your auto box is toast and you do fit another its likely you will find yourself back in this position in a few months/years time. Lastly don't go breaking down in my county again please esp if the car is red. people will assume its mine breaking, I don't like that idea. :clap:

Hi newbie here after my first zed!!!!
Hi there, fortunately the t top version is the most common. Available in both 2 seater and the 2+2 seater formats. I'd say budget to spend 3500 you may find a bargain, but often the cars sub 1000 are cheap for a reason. It may cost you double or triple to get them right. Your current budget is sensible, and may get you a Goodun, however a better pick would be through the 3500 catagory. Club cars are a good buy and look for something with lots of history. A large stack of receipts with these is a good thing. If you plan to use it daily, bear in mind the fuel consumption. Mid 20s with mixed driving is average. Less if your a lead foot, more on a long run. Best thing is start looking, start attending meets and generally get involved.
