While I unfortunately don't find the time to keep as current on this board as much as I did in the past, it's still great fun to see some lively...
I'm also a big fan of the GTO. I've been fortunate enough to drive both the standard 599GTB and GTO back to back and they are night and day in...
I had a similar problem and went through the same steps and it turned out to be that the ignition coils were weak. After replacing them, it felt...
Indeed, quite a relief to be rolling again! Your experience mirrors mine in that the issue was at first rare and intermittent (even...
It says near the bottom of the page that they "can be finished with either bolt on or spline drive configuration. Our wheels will also accept the...
Hello gents, the problem is solved and it was indeed the Master Cylinder. I pulled it out of the car and when disassembled, the brass rings...
Thanks for all the suggestions, gents. I'll post my findings in the next few days as soon as I have some answers. Cheers.

Remember that the VIN is on the steering column; change the steering column, change the VIN. Many a Ferrari has questionable history precisely...
Hi Tim, I just dug up my invoice, and they used SKF. Cheers.
Hi Clive, That's pretty much how I see it, too: driving season, and fixing season :) About the bearings on my car, the issue was that the...
Hi Tim, My dealer (Ferrari of Alberta) did the whole repair and sourced the parts. Not sure what brand they used, but I assume it is whatever...
