.. 3rd & 4th gear problem on 6-speed 360, need your help!

I think it's muffler bearings... probably used synthetic fluid with them. Happens all the time.

 

Also one thing you will learn in this business is similar to what a cop will say about an eye witness and that is that they are the worst source of reliable info. Same with most car owners unless they happen to be paticularly technically astute.

The tic tic has been going on for a while and is a common trait of 360's and he says it comes and goes(SOP for a 360) so I just ignored it. The loud, well a 360's intake is right behind your left ear and at full throttle it is a bit loud especially if nothing else is happening to drown it out. Throw that one out too.
So all you are really left with is an intermittant, substantial power loss that is getting worse. Lots of things can cause that. Many of them are either very bad in and of themselves and many others can cause very bad consequential damage.

360 is a great car, IMO one of the better that Ferrari has made in some time but I have seen this circumstance snowball way to many times into something very expensive.





BTW I think he is intermittantly losing a bank but what do I know. Like I said I left my cristal ball at home.

 

Prob bought that syn fluid from you. You just want to sell more Muffler brngs.
