Hi everyone, I’m the proud owner of an RC which I’ve had for a couple of weeks. I know there is a dedicated RC section but this one seems to have more activity and let’s face it they have much in common.
Perhaps a strange question, but I do a lot of DIY and have my own trolley jacks which in my other cars I just use on the usual jacking points. When researching my car I’m sure I read somewhere that the jacking points on the IS/RC should only be used with the supplied jack and the trolley jack be used under the central jacking points.
My concern is would a tyre fitter just stick the jack under the sill and possibly bend the jacking point and the same thing with a 4 poster lift with the arms positioned in the same place.
I see you can get rubber pads with grooves in for use with trolley jacks.
So any practical feedback would be great, anyone had problems with tyre fitters or independent garages damaging the sills and has anyone jacked the car up themselves with or without the grooved adapter?
Or am I worrying about nothing and just get on with it like any other car.
