I have a 2008 599 and occasionally there is a very long delay of up to 20 to 30 seconds before the starter will engage after pressing the start...
These are all aluminum and I don't believe there is a reliable way to repair an aluminum radiator. I have tour buses that have aluminum radiators...
I priced the radiator at several US dealers and I got prices anywhere from $5000.00 to $7,800.00. I ordered it from Scuderia parts in the UK and...
I just replaced the radiator in mine at 10,000 miles because it was leaking at where the core is seamed to the header tanks. From what I have...
Update: I just got Continental Extreme Contact all season tires in 255 for the front and 315 for the rear. No problem with the traction control...
Yes, I'm aware of that and thank you for your input. What I am looking for is someone that has actually done this on a 599. After taking out the...
That would work if this were not a Ferrari 599. There is no radiator drain cock or radiator cap. The lowest hose on the radiator is not at the...
Dave, where can I get a 599 shop manual like you have?

I am ordering a new radiator... Another question on a related topic. I found online that the cooling system holds 19 liters (5.1 gal) of...

I have a 2008 599 GTB and I discovered a small coolant leak at a weld on the side of the radiator. Does anyone have experience removing and...
Thanks for your suggestions guys, but I ended up having to use a bigger piece of wood and a bigger hammer. Anti-Seize will be giong on the hub...
I am trying to remove the rear rims on my 2008 599 GTB and the front slid off very easily but the rear seem to be stuck on at the hub. I have used...
I looked up and got the specs on the two sizes of tires. the 315 has an outside diameter of 28.7 and the 305 has 28.4, a difference of .3 of an...
I was wondering about that. It doesn't make much sense to me since the size difference is only .4 of an inch. Tread wear from new to warn isn't...
Jakermc, I was thinking about those and have those on my Porsche Macan. I have a fleet account with Michelin and the prices are about 40% less...
