I just noticed this thread. Back in 2012, I wrote up replacing the LH Radiator in my '95 355GTS. Not sure how to make this sticky, so please advise. Hope this can help someone attempting this.

Headlight motor repair

 

Clicked on the alternator rebuild link .......nothing ?
My battery light on the dash came on, trying to research know issues/problems/fixes.

I play bloody hell searching for specific topics within a thread.

 

There is a problem with the new site and the diy thread for 355.
Something to do with the links.
One of the administrators told me if I sent them a list of all the links they would put them in again and then it would work.
I just do not have a computer any more and i could not find an efficient way on my ipad to do it.

If you send them a pm they could likely give you more information.

 

Thanks Taz355, I also use an iPad ........or maybe it is using me

 

I'm on it! Give me a couple of minutes.

All the best,
Andrew.

 

Fixed these links. There are many more in the thread that need manually correcting, but... coffee first.

All the best,
Andrew.

 

Thanks Andrew you rock

 

OK... a "couple of minutes" turned into 3 hours, but I managed to repair all but one of the links in this thread. No idea who, but someone now owes me a coffee.

Let it not be said that there isn't love for the 355 brotherhood from 348 enthusiasts.

All the best,
Andrew.

 

Thanks Andrew
Things like this is why Fchat rocks.

 

I am looking at doing a wholesale replacement of all hosing of my 97 355.

Has anyone or does anyone know of someone who has done this with Aeroquip materials?

 

Start a new thread this one is for results. Thanks

 

A good thread on understanding slow down lights.
Thanks to Dr bob and many others

Where can I find a discussion on replacing a heater control valve on a F355 Spyder?

 

https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/355-heater-control-valve.560559/

sometimes it's easier to google search "ferrarichat f355 heater control valve replacement" than using the F-chat search.
