Fully agree. I decide to do everything what need to be done when the engine is out. There is still sometning what need some love, but that I will keep for next year. Some of the points will do myself, so for sure the pictures will come :)

As often the situation is not perfect. The car needs more love then initially expected. there are a lot of oil leaks, so the heads need to go out. The costs will kill me. fortunatelly spring and summer will refund behind the wheel :)

First time from 2022 see the sun light. It is so beautiful :) Finally major service time. Hope after few weeks will drive that beauty home :)

That is the way I did that, flush with the mix of new and old fluid. Flushed brakes and clutch. What i found is, that when add new fluid to reservoir, the old and new fluid did not mix untill I key the ignition and ABS pomp starts. Only then everything was mixed and the level was equal in both...

Any idea how to suck all the fluid from reservoir? There are some kind of labirynth so it is not possible to suck from the cap, and I don't want toix old and new fluid.

Fianlly, the calipers are done. Everything was disassembly with ferw broken bolts. That was the last time, because the corossion starts to play on the main bolts. Everything was cleaned with ultrasonic, sandblasted and zinc coated to be shiny and secured. All bolts of course were replaced...

Correct, the ATE calipers are not painted, looks rather like anode, Brembo are painted. Still waiting for my caliper, will keep you informed.

The last step of "lights" refresh done. One of the numberplate lights does not work. I thought it will be just cleanning and bulb replacement, but... Everything was a bot coroded. There was 2 options. Buy new, plastic plate likghts or take the effort to restore the original metal ones. Rivets...

The situation is not always going into good direction... One bolt from the caliper broke during untigntenning. It looks those are not standard bolts. CMC machinninf is not a problem, but... To produce the bolt need to have dimensions. Till now, everything is waiting with penetrating oil for...

You can buy the kit online, not listed by Ferrari as speare parts.

The seals are good, but we will see after striping down the calipers. There are repair kit available for ATE caliper in the internet for 160Euro. Not only the calipers, but brake disc can be clean and pretty ;)

Something is on the way. The calipers are in really good shape, but... Car is not driving yet, winter is long, so that is a good oportunity do do a detail cleanning, new pads, new houses and fluid.

Hi, no one recognize that yet ;) you are the first one.

Small update Finally, the floor mats are ready. Colour matches almost perfectly (camera did not show perfectly), the quality is super, it was possible to fit original rubber pads. Refurbish wheels and new tyres. Working on brakes (cleaning, pads, sensors, brake fluid), after that wheel assembly.

most probabbly the next update will come with the wheels. Today I found out 25mm spacers on the rear axle. Is that a factory configuration, or prevoius owner invention?

Sunday is the perfect time to love yuor car. As I mentioned earlier, there is still something to improve in the lights all over the car. My head light does not look perfect. Everything was sealed properly, no cracks, but it looks a bit fogy... I decidet to do something with it. At first need to...

Fortunatelly, I was oble to find almost exactly the same bulb socket to fit into original plastic, so was able to use factory positive cable without sotering. Negative cable need to be replaced, so new wire and new socket, and together with new bulbes evyrything looks like new. The glass was...

Hi, time to do some update. This time headlights, to be more precise fog lights/ indicators. Mine was quite OK, but there was some bud to be replace, so I decide to change all bulbs, and then.... everything starts :) I found one lamp was not sealed properly, so there was several issues. To find...

Thanks for warm welcome. For now I'm doing some small updates/ repairs. Nothing complicated. For sure when meet some problem will ask. Before I write first post I have red a lot of post on that forum (all post from irarref for egzample :) ). More comlicated repairs comming soon. Curently working...

From the beginning of owning my Ferrari, after turning the ignition on, I hear clicking noise, after a few seconds the noise gone. Few days ago I decided to track that noise. After remooving the carpet from the front trunk, I found the noise. The noise comes from the small actuator which select...
