• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    How to open rear trunk, if won't unlatch with handle.

    As I have the back of an RT apart at the moment I took a picture of what is going on when you do the procedure as you described. Using a flashlight shining up thru the hole in the left latch you can see the rod for screwdriver placement if necessary.

    Drive belts

    refer to your Operators Manual. It shows where the belt should be. The belt should be 1to 5mm off the inside flange. If what you pictured is it's normal position it needs to be adjusted inward. Only check the gap after going forward. Backing it up will give you a bad measurement.

    Heated hand grips, fog lights issue

    As stated if the horn works then then the 25 amp fuse is good. The fuse feeds Load Shedding Relay R4 which is located in the Right Hand Fuse Box. Re-seat the Relay and start the engine. If the fog lights and grips still don't work the relay is probably bad.

    Failing rear shock or too many doughnuts?

    You say scraping and bottoming out over speed bumps. The scraping is the front correct and the bottoming out is the rear? If that is the case I believe you need a new set of shocks front and rear that are set up with heavier springs. With the air bag deflated the shocks should do there job...
