Ferrari Mailing List: Re: 456 Manual

[Douglas Anderson (dnt]

Nice looking stance – BUT it’s Achilles Heel is it’s reverse gear set up.

The tooth cut drives the torqued gear against the retaining pin – not the stronger transmission case.

Seems OK as long as the driver doesn’t use GR when backing up.

GR?  Gorilla Reverse.

Cheers

Doug

Depends how they “fixed” it. If they used all factory parts, probably will need doing again.

 

It was a weak point with these. I’ve also heard/read rear shocks fail on a regular basis.

 

Still though, I just love the look of these cars. I think I could live with and deal with those issues. Although I’d rather have the Euro version without airbags.

 

What type of OBD do these cars use?

Says window regulators replaced. Is that a permanent fix?

 

Brian?
