Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Day 2 of the shake down on the 575

[Charles Perry (charles]

When I got my Vanquish S, which has a very similar automated manual to the 575, the forum consensus was that you should pull both paddles to neutral when coming to a stop. No, you don’t have to, but it’s easier on the clutch. I’ve had the Vanquish 7 years now with no issues, clutch or otherwise.

Subject: [Ferrari] Day 2 of the shake down on the 575

 

No squawks

The thing drinks gas like a fighter though 

Finally crawled underneath the car and it has a full Tubi system 

Which didn’t show up in the service records I got

The Dash One ( owners manual) is pretty good 

Big thing that stood out for me is that if you are in Auto mode for a long time

Double paddle to neutral 

My guess that’s where guys are burning up the clutch 

It’s the same clutch in the 512, huge 

Also it came with silicone hoses that were installed when the new water pump was put in 

I have to adjust the parking brake 

It’s worthless right now 

Underhood temps are right up there with the TR so when I park it 

I raise the hood to let it breath 

That’s it Dukes
