I’ve sent an email for one from the next batch

Great thanks Scott R400D

Sorry for the delay first time I've logged on. Williams Automobiles they were v efficient Caterham were expecting a delivery so perhaps they have them now.

Thanks to the advice I have decided not to crash the Caterham I built , that will teach me to click too early ZZS on the way . Thank you Geoff and DJ

I cleverly managed to order the wrong tyres for my 360 R. I meant to order Avon ZZS to replace the front tyres but managed to order ZZRs ! That would mean I have ZZRs on the front and ZZS on the rear. I am planning some Trackdays's and I would be interested in those with experience if this is a combination that may work ?

Cheers makes sense !

I've just had engraved a brass nameplate. The plan is to stick it to my carbon fiber dashboard. Before I do so I thought I'd ask if anyone has had an experience of the glue damaging the surface of the carbon fiber ? Thanks in advance.

Thank you Jonathan and Revilla ! I can see more investigation is required . The car is still in warranty so I ll check with Caterham next in case the gauges / wiring are covered. It's a self build but of course the gauges are pre fitted / wired by Caterham If it's not covered I'll make a start myself as suggested

My Caterham temperature gauge is rather fickle in the sense it's is occasionally shows random hot and cold when running. Today both the temperature and fuel gauge continued to show a reading when the ignition was off. When turning the ignition on both needles swept the gauge as normal. it's a 2018 360r Just wondered if this was a a common issue or something I should investigate further

Hi I built a 360 R last year and have just seen this so sorry for the delay I agree it’s not clear. I ended up contacting Derek and using his info that with the blogs. Lots of complications but that combination worked in the end.

A quick update; armed with the helpful advice / experiences here I had another go and it looks tight now. Interesting experience for me and just proves that even a simple job that I’ve done loads of times can be puzzling and sharing helps Cheers all

Cheers Jonathan Will check the above and report back.

Hi all Thanks very much for all input It’s the PH2874 filter. Same manufacturer as original fitment First time change so replacement It goes on easily ( which suggests not cross threaded ) and tighten’s normally. When it is hand tight I can see the seal isn’t at the top Like many of us I’ve changed oil before so am puzzled.

Cheers Jim First time I’ve been unable to hand tighten an oil filter ! ill have a go tomorrow with a tool up to 11 ish Nm

Hi just fitted my oil filter for my wet sump 360 r I have hand tightened it as usual with the seal lubricated. However although it it as tight as it can be by hand it is not tight to the top Am I missing something? Eg should I use a tool to tighten it ?
