g40 is here along with a few tiffs!

Post by ck6uk »

ok guys got the g40 no problem until i reached the near end of my journey home ( 150 miles) then the inevitable happend


i turned the engine off as i parked up then it wouldnt come back on, as if the starter motor had disappeared!

there was definet power drain as the lights dimmed........weirdness maybe it over heated, its fine now n doesnt seem to have starting problems!

the brakes jutter as if it ABS engaged, its fuknig dangerous as the thing dont wanna stop moving! it has brembo max disc n some kind of racing pads on there - possible disc warping?

do pit stop do alarms????

g40's don't have abs :wink: sounds very much like the disks are warped, or maybe just worn. i warped my old set of brembo max's very easily...sticking with plain disks now!

no,pitstop don't do alarms as far as i know.
