Interesting failure, I wish you were local! A few things. Motor mounts are essential to the proper F1 operation and preventing damage, if they are...
The actuator is very rigidly mounted, I would expect some other damage before it is "knocked out of alignment", but it is possible. I have had my...
As I was reading through your post I said out loud "motor mounts" and yep there it was. Your next move should be to inspect that crossmember (drop...
I have used a nearly 10 year old $11 ELM-327 from Amazon with Torque over about as many years and it works great, but as you say it is just dead...
Any chance the driver's side headlight motor is cross referenced to something available and common? The usual sources show it as out of stock,...
Remember F chat 10 years ago, roaring and busy, people even subscribed to get into some chat rooms. It was a happening place, and now dead quite...
Sounds like yours may be a bit more severe than mine, but a shuddering was one of the symptoms I saw prior to doing an F1 overhaul. Root cause was...
It would help allot of Hallsdad could post a more descriptive narrative of what is going on. When you get in the car and turn it on what do you...
I have always described the 458 as a 355 with more thrust. After the more sedate follow on cars it was like the 458 was a return to the more edgy...
They do look great, and age well. I don't think the 355 wheels do, I have never regretted going to 360 Starfish wheels.
First thing to check is the condition of your motor mounts, they sag and can allow the shift actuator linkage to contact the crossmember and cause...
IF this manifests as a replacement TCU or some modification such as a daughtercard with new firmware and communication path for diags then we...
My 2c, you clearly make enough and know how to save, so do what I did and create a separate savings account and label it something like 355cash,...
Still available
I have a set I removed years ago to do the fabspeed/hyperflow/capristo combo. I need to get these out of my garage, make a fair offer (I'll ship...
I have the fabspeed and love them. I installed a set of Tubis for a friend and was impressed by the build quality and value, no problems there either.
Some of those specs are meaningful deviations, not huge mind you, but it seems like a reasonable thing to attend to. I think that might be a side...
I think you are right that I am conflating the two topics, thanks! No airbag light is present. I have driven the car once since the install, I...
I replaced my sticky and peeling laminated dash, center, and gauge trim with the Valence stuff. It looks perfect and was a smoking deal on ebay...
Good catch on the check valve, and welcome to F1 ownership! What you will find is that the F1 system tends to work fine, until it doesn't. About...
