Good morning all!
Sorry for my intrusion in this topic but unfortunately I have got the same problem with the supercharger. My name is Simone and I write from Italy, 3 days ago I brought my Evora S SR (MY 2013, around 14000miles) to up grade the airbox with a carbon BCA.
While replacing it, the mechanic (Lotus), realised that he had reassembled the MAF sensor backwards, in fact, the car didn't want to turn on.
Then they realised the problem and mounted in the right position the MAF and the car turn it on properly.
Soon after we started listening this noise like the lobes of the supercharger were scrubbing somewhere inside...!
My question is, could this noise and possible damage be caused by the wrongly mounted MAF?
As a matter of fact, now there are several thousand of € dancing in order to revise or even worse to replace the supercharger.
thank you for your kind answers
