Need help, my fanatec dd pro brake pedal started squeeking and making this loud annoying sound whenever I brake.

It started happening this week and my setup is relatively new as I bought it at the beginning of the year.

If anyone could please help me fix this it would be great thanks.

Feel free to ask me any questions.

Was setting up a new monitor on my rig and decided to take a peek at Fanatec pedals and while browsing around the US site I saw the Boost 180 kit was only 60 bucks. Didn't see it mentioned in a search of the sub so I figured I shout it out in case anyone wanted to pick up an upgrade for cheap like me.

Did i miss something? I was looking on the website and when I selected uk as my location, the bmw gt2 wheel isn't listed.

I hope this is an error as I've always wanted that wheel

This is not a stock McLaren GT3 wheel. It has been upgraded with several high-quality modifications to create a unique, race-ready wheel that looks as good as it performs.

Custom GT7 Upgrades

• Custom thick vinyl GT7-themed faceplate — professionally applied for a bold Gran Turismo-inspired look.
• Custom PS5 buttons — blue and red buttons are specifically configured for PlayStation/GT7 use and clearly labeled on the wheel.
• VoCore.io display installed — use SimHub to run a variety of customizable HUD layouts directly on the wheel. Display information such as speed, RPM, gear, fuel, lap information, tire data, timing and much more.
• Upgraded blue aluminum QR2 Quick Release — a substantial upgrade from the standard quick-release system, providing a solid, premium connection to your wheel base.

The McLaren GT3 V2 provides an excellent combination of realistic GT-style controls, ergonomic design, and immersive sim-racing functionality. The integrated VoCore display takes it a step further by putting critical race information directly in your line of sight.

Compatible with supported Fanatec wheel bases and PC/PlayStation setups, making it an excellent choice for Gran Turismo 7 on PS5 as well as PC sim racing.

The VoCore display is driven through SimHub, allowing you to choose from numerous existing dashboards or create/customize your own.

What's Included

• Fanatec McLaren GT3 V2 Racing Wheel
• Custom GT7 vinyl faceplate
• Custom blue/red PS5 buttons
• Installed VoCore.io display
• Upgraded blue aluminum QR2 Quick Release

Only used to check functions after customization. Comes from a pet- and smoke-free home.

Asking $385

It feels cheesy now!

Feedback is practically non existent.

Is there a setting somewhere that I'm not seeing?

Is it because GT7 has switched wheel manufacturers to Moza and their phasing out fanatec?

I've put over $1,700.00 into my rig! That's alot of money on my meager salary. I don't want to buy another wheel setup!

help......

Loose magnet, what type of glue should I use?

my brake input started dropping during a race.. until it eventually stopped registering completely. The throttle and clutch are still working normally, but the brake gives absolutely no input.

Ive tried a couple of things..
Dismantled the pedals from my rig and cleaned them.
Disconnected and reconnected all the cables.
Swapped the complete pedal electrical connections at the pedal base to test them in different positions.
The throttle and clutch work when connected to each other’s inputs.
The brake doesn’t work regardless of which input I connect it to.
The throttle and clutch also give no reading when connected to the brake input.
I’ve also removed the brake rod and elastomers to inspect the assembly. I noticed that the RJ connector on the brake cable has some black marks on the contacts that I don’t see on the throttle or clutch connectors. I’ve attached photos.

Been checking online and the only thing I found close enough was someone saying the eventually had to replace the load cell.

What is the current opinion on switching to the app ? I tried the app about a year ago and it did not do anything for me. I actually found it more difficult to determine what my wheel settings were since the app would change them at times.

Hey guys im having a hard time finding 3d print files for the backplate conversion so i can have QR on my CSL Elite p1 V1 wheel. I have found 2 links, both are down - from Fanamod and some random.

Does anyone still have the files id really appreciate it. It looks like this:

I know I need to update or downgrade the main software but I don't know which one to download. Honestly i don't know which one to switch.... > : {

My shifter will repeat late try and shift me in the fifth gear when in neutral. Other gears are also affected as seen in the video.

I've already tried the electrical trick to insulate. Fix it for a month or so but it's back again and even after replacing tape a second time has no effect. Any ideas?

Hi Guys

Has some weird stuff going on today. After updating GT7 i thought id play for a while.

About 10 mins in, I hear this RANDOM "SIREN" sound which appears to be either coming from my porsche gt vision wheel or my clubsport DD+ ( didn't even know it had a speaker ?)

I wasn't sure what i heard, i continued to play for about 20-30 mins, and then AGAIN this weird SIREN sound, fairly loud, like a speaker sound i can't describe it?

Played another 30-40 mins and then randomly again....

Any ideas?

From ARTech-USA on Etsy

I just picked this up from a 3rd party sale the other night. I really wanted to like it.

I play Gran Turismo 7 on PS5, I only play with gloves on and in VR.

I do enjoy the dual thumb encoders and the thumb rests on the grips.

Even though it's wider than the V2.5, I don't like how narrow it is. I even thought of keeping it for another rig setup. I have a CS DD, pedals etc that I had prior to upgrading to a CS DD+, Simnet SP Pros and an Octane Sequential.

I used it 3 separate times, and for shoulder width and hand placement, it's just too narrow for me. I feel like the shifters are too close, my thumb hits the shifter module and keeps bumping the encoders. LoL

So anyway. I'm asking for $290.00 there is no box. I do have the bag of button covers he gave me as well.

It has the metal QR2, just not the QR2 Pro(I'm not sure if that is an option from Fanatec).

Located near PGH Airport.

asking for $290.00 OBO
there is no box

If your fanatic shifter is not shifting correctly , and you have tried almost everything, recalibrate the shifter using the wheels internal menu{see manual} Instead of the app.

thank you that will be all.

Hi, I recently bought these pedals used, and they came with vibration motors, but they weren't installed. Is it worth installing them, or will they be annoying in the long run? I'd have to solder them first because the previous owner ripped the wires...

I mainly play GT3 in iRacing.

Thanks!

Just ordered the Podium Pedals Sport and I want to tune the brake with third-party parts.

From what I've found, the stock springs are about 25 mm OD, 32 mm long, around 13.5 mm ID. I haven't found any elastomers made specifically for the Podium yet.

What are you running, and where did you get it? Springs, elastomers, stiffness, combos that worked or didn't, anything.

Thanks!

It took some time, but in 2027 we'll have a wheel with decent screen and Simhub support!

Project obsidian has been showcased at the 2026 Frankfurt simracing expo.

What do you recon the price will be?

Hey All

Im looking to purchase this for PS5. Do you think it is likely to be a better deal on black Friday? or perhaps Fanatec does not do sales?

In the video attached I use the Fanatec App to test brake vibration, followed by throttle vibration.

I just bought a used set up Clubsport V3s. My brake vibration rattles, whereas the throttle vibration rumbles. Is this how the brake vibration is intended to be? Or do I need to replace the motor?

With the merger, I wonder why this product is releasing under the Trak Racer brand rather than the Fanatec brand. Fanatec continuing to develop cockpits independently of Trak Racer is already causing confusing brand overlap. Trak Racer releasing peripherals that are obviously Fanatec derived at the very least is making the distinction between the two brands even blurrier.

Hello r/Fanatec

Great to see so much interest in our gear and our latest reveals, the ClubSport Formula V3 Oracle Red Bull Racing and Project Obsidian.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by our booth today. We're looking forward to seeing even more of you on the weekend!

See you tomorrow!
