I would like to poll some owners here for a new problem. Been dreaming all day about coming home for a drive. So when i get home i insert key /self test and start . No issues. While shes warming up i do some microfiber wipe down and proceed to get in. Temp up. Oil pressure good. Buckle and select reverse. Back out . Complete stop. Select nuetral. Select first . Drive 50 feet . Gearbox failure light accomany by suspension light. Computer selects second gear . Unable to change gears. Go around block in second . Pull in. Shutdown. Startup procedure. Notice this time gearbox light doesnt flash like usual. No test? Start and same probem again. Shutdown. Cry. Go to ferrari chat . Plead for info and help!!
Def time for the SD2. Sounds to me like your F1 sensor in shot. Not a terribly expensive part to replace if that is it. Could also be your F1 pump starting to fail which is a different story. Expensive to replace but luckily you can have a 360 F1 pump retrofitted if you have a knowledgeable shop around that can do it. I know these thing 'cuz they both happened to me. Not sure why suspension light is coming on. Could be a bad ECU or something.
Checked her again this morning. Self test completed . Engine start . Suspension light on . I waited till she warmed up and checked her fluids . Low on F1 Fluid. Just barley showing on stick . Shut her off and checked her codes for giggles even though no engine light was showing . P1448 stored. Know i have been having issues in the past , but figured it was the way i was driving her so i keep her away from sitting near 3k on the tach . Cleared the code anyway. Start back up , no suspension light. Ok , lets go for a drive. Pulled out expecting to see the Gearbox light again , cause i didnt have any oil with me to fill her up . No light. Around the block . Everything seems fine . Took her around for 10 miles . Perfect besides for a rapid blinking left turn signal . so the best i can figure what happened its because i pulled in the MR2 next to her in the garage and she got upset. And its been turning a little chilly lately so maybe she didnt like the cold either. Anyway , lets hope shes stays off . Ill try driving her a little more . shes been sitting for a week . thanks for the info guys -Joys
