    Does anyone know if there is a way to adjust the handbrake other than jacking the car up and removing the rear undertray? Just failed an MOT on Scuderia I bought and no Ferrari dealer here. Have a workshop that will try but don't seem to be able to get it on their ramp as car is too low. This is how Ferrari recommend doing it, any other way?

    I wish I could but they wouldn't register it, first I need to fix it. A dealer here is going to try for me next week. Thanks Remi for your help, good to know it's the only way.

    Its really easy to do. Anyone with a couple of jacks and a few spanners can do it. :D If it wasnt for the INSANE lines at the Gib border I would drive down and do it for you for a cold beer :D

    :D

    ****, NO! Salamanca SUCKS. I do everything myself. I have a 360, a F430 spider F1 and a Gallardo. I do everything myself. If I need a SD2/3 or Lara I go to one of the Independents in the Banus area. There are quite a few of them. Marbella Cars Club, rotor and one more.

    The Ferrari club(s) here are also quite big, but I rarely go there as there are mostly old farts. Hahaha. :D

    :D

    I would be useless at doing stuff myself but respect to you, I wish it was a skill I had. Where is Rotor Remi, I've never heard of it. So where do you think is best to go now for Service for those that cannot do it themselves. Guarnieri? Before when I had a 360 I used to go to Ivan Fernandez but I think he closed down, I don't know where he is now.

    I would think you'd be able to get it on the lift if you just provide a ramp. I initially had trouble getting the front arms of a lift under my scud but we just put a plank of wood under the front tires and, viola, we had enough room for the lift. Don't forget the hockey pucks.

    Ivan F is as far as I know now privately employed by a car collector in the Estepona area. (Not sure who / where)

    Guarnieri in Malaga is a better option I guess.

    Rotor is basically where Ivan F used to be, in Nueva Campana, but in the road behind. Does lots of work for Supergarage and other Exotics. :)

    I also have a 300m3 workshop in Nueva Campana, but I restore Porsches as a hobby... :D

    Yep, I know Jesus, good place he has there, have had stuff done by him in the past.

    Remi - can I ask you something, I know you will have the answer.

    The car was just serviced in Holland (at least I paid for it to be serviced but I'm wondering if Munsterhuis did it properly or not). Anyway the Coolant is about 6-8cm below the neck of the tank, the books says it should be about 4cm. I can see that it needs to be topped up. I can't get Glyco Shell here, if I add some distilled water would this be okay, or do I need to add coolant? Thanks ;-)

    Add some destilled water. No issue. :D

    Jesus at Talleres Madrid, both of them, are friends of mine. I also know Francesco at Marbella Cars Club. Good guys. At Marbella Cars Club they have the SDX diagnostic.

    :D
