Just wanted to give Fanatec support a shout out. I bought a used wheel on fb marketplace out of warranty and it turned out to have bent/missing pins. I contacted support to see if they had the part in stock so I can buy it to repair the wheel hub. They offered it to me free of charge. Thank you again 🙏

Seeking Product Recommendations CSL Steering Wheel 320 V2

Post image
9 Upvotes

Hi all,

Last week, I received an email from Fanatec saying that QR2 prices would remain low following the success of their last sale. So, I thought it would be a good time to upgrade my wheels! I currently have the Clubport formula V2.5, which I'm very happy with, and the P1, which is a bit underwhelming.

I hope you guys and girls can help me with three questions:

  1. Is the new QR2 really an upgrade? I can imagine it makes a difference for the P1 wheel, which has the plastic QR.
  2. They're currently selling the CSL 320 V2 for €229.95, claiming it's almost €90 off the regular price. Is this actually a good deal, or has it been available at this price for ages? Would it be worth waiting for the Black Friday deals?
  3. If you own this wheel, what has your experience with it been like?

Thanks in advance for your help!

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.

Solved CSL Elite V2 brake pedal stopped working. Anyone know what it might be?

2 Upvotes

Brake pedal stopped working, I replaced the load cell but the software still shows no input whatsoever from the brake pedal. Is it possible that the hub underneath the pedals is bad? I tried plugging the clutch and throttle pedals into the brake input and it doesn’t work. Is it possible it could be the wheel base the pedals plug into?

Answered Steering wheel Clubsport RS

0 Upvotes

I want to buy the Clubsport RS, I’ve been waiting part of this year for the end of the year in case Fanatec renews it or a new round version comes out, I’m seeing that everything is going very slowly and that the best thing is perhaps to wait for an offer on blackfriday of the already more than classic Clubsport RS and go for it, because if I have to be waiting for a new version...., what would you do? I currently ride the CSL Elite P1 V2

Bonjour à tous,

J’ai un problème avec mon fanatec CSL DD.
Alors voilà quand je joue je dois légèrement tiré sur le volant a certain moment et de ce fait le volant ce déconnecte…
J’ai déjà démonté et remonté le QR, serrer à fond mais rien n’y fais
Avez vous une solution pour accrocher le volant (j’ai un gt3 CSL) et une base CSL DD acheter fin 2025
Je trouve que le côté plastique est trop peu résistant et je ne sais pas quoi faire…

Merci d’avance pour votre aide

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.

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.

Answered Fanatec CSL Elite V2 brake stopped registering completely after gradually losing input

Post image
0 Upvotes

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.

Game Settings GranTurismo7 - What's happened to my wheel???

0 Upvotes

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!

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.

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?

Seeking Product Recommendations Fanatec Clubsport Pedals V3

5 Upvotes

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!
