    Next instalment Fuel tank bladder replacement featuring some more stellar workmanship from the franchised Ferrari dealer :rolleyes:

    Who was it that suggested that Ferraris should only be serviced by Ferrari dealers?

    Nice pics, is the fuel tank bladder the one that has to be replaced every ten years at a cost of some stupid amount? Or am I totally on the wrong track

    Yup at a ludicrous $19k from the franchised dealer. It could be done about 30% cheaper (maybe more) by sourcing the bladders outside the dealer network and using an independent workshop. I wanted a dealer invoice for this job for various reasons. For that sort of money you would expect a perfect job with perfect attention to detail from the factory trained techs.............. right?

    Any conclusion on the leak at Winton 360C?

    Yup. The sealant patch on the crack on the casing of the oil pump failed. It is getting welded by a specialist this week. Initially it looked like there were no examples of this part left anywhere in the world; but it appears one has turned up. It is one section of the oil pump body (I think there are 5 all up). The cost of the part is just under $5000 so I am hoping the welding works :)
