    Astonishing work!

    The original issue was leaks everywhere. How will this be prevented in the future? Did some of the mating surfaces need to be remachined for better fit? Or did the pieces move around under load?

    just driving the car somewhat regularly would help. gaskets and seals tend to dry out and fail when they're not being exercised over a long period of time.

    Thank you.

    It cannot be prevent, just naturally happens. Regular use or atleast running of the car will help slow it down.

    When you see how simple the latches are, and that they use standard furniture cabinet locks you do realise the F40 tax that Ferrari applies to such parts if you want replacements!

    £5000 a set plus 20% vat on top !!!!!!
