jerseybeemer — Thu, 14 May 2026 15:13:50 GMT

Track car - NOT STREET LEGAL. NO PART OUTS.
I built this for what I wanted, an OEM feel and durability with racecar safety.
What it needs: New Harness. That's it. Nothing else for you to take it the track today.
What it could use: a new paint job. But if paint is high on your priority list, this probably isn't for you.
What it has:
Cage - 4130 Fabrication 2020
Seat - Sparco Circuit
Radiator - Rockstar
Coilovers - Fortune Auto 500 series
Valve Cover - Rain H8R Modified
Exhaust - Berk Single
Hardtop - Rockstar
Wheels - TR Motorsports
Eibach front sway bar
NRG SRK-131H Steering Wheel Short Hub Adapater
OMP (OD/1990/NN) Steering Wheel
Auto Blip
Hood Struts (ebay)
CR steering Rack
New Differential (1 track day since replaced)
Hondata FlashPro
New Battery
I do also have a Trailex trailer for sale, but will be listing that separately once the car is sold to give the buyer of the car a chance at it first.

Ross Tech faults

TeamJones1962 — Wed, 13 May 2026 23:46:56 GMT

Good evening,

So after letting my 06 GT sit for a few yrs (life happened) I started to sort out its issues. I will try to attach the print out from the software in hopes you all can start me in the right direction as I have googled and used up what little knowledge I have with this car. I will note the things I have done so that some these codes could be overlooked. I'M more so worried about the terminal 30 on these codes.

I just replaced my air compressor today and its still not kicking on. I hooked up my Autel PowerScan to it to shoot 12v while installed and it worked for 2 mins straight. Can didn't lift a cm. I replaced the relay and checked the 40amp and both 10 amp fuses.

I replaced the radio yrs ago so the no communication with the HVAC and audio is normal.

I fitted all of the inside, license plate, side mirrors and puddle lights with L.E.D�s.

My ABS pump was replaced so I'm guessing I have to do some type of learn process to have those codes go away. ( I need to get it to a shop so the breaks could be bled also).

Both batteries are on it's own CTEK trickle charger and despite the vacuum leak it starts up ok (Might need to put some type of gas treatment in there tho).

If for some reason the log.txt doesn't load then I'll try to get some screen captures and post them.

The bumper is off due to me needing to take the fender and headlight out to get to the ABS pump.

thanks for any and all help!!!

Side note: Has anyone heard from Adrenalinejunky as of late?

Db9 volante roof failure

dt58 — Wed, 13 May 2026 19:08:01 GMT

I have a higher-mileage Aston Martin DB9. It�s close to 70,000 miles now, and I�ve personally put about 10,000 miles on it. The car has been super solid overall with no major issues.

Recently, though, I started having a problem with the convertible top. When I try to put the roof down, it goes through almost the entire cycle normally. But right at the very end, as soon as the roof starts lowering into the storage area and the clamshell/tonneau cover begins to close, it seems like the hydraulics suddenly shut off. The clamshell then slowly drops down onto the roof without latching, and the dash displays �Roof Failure.�

At that point, it won�t let me continue the cycle or put the roof back up electronically. The only way I can recover it is by manually opening the clamshell, pulling the roof back out of the storage area, then restarting the car. After that, I can press the button and the roof will close fully.

What�s strange is that all of the hydraulics seem to function properly up until that exact moment, which makes me think it may be an electrical or sensor-related issue causing the system to abort the cycle at the last second.

I found some old service records from before I bought the car that mention:

- �Diagnosed stalled roof action and rewired tonneau lock relays due to water intrusion�

- �Diagnosed incomplete function of roof ECU due to electrical surges�

Sounds very similar to what I�m experiencing now, so I�m wondering if I may be dealing with the same issue again.

I checked the relays, and they don�t appear to be factory-original. One of the prongs also has this white cable that leads to nothing. I also tried swapping them out to see if anything changed, but I�m still having the same issue.

I�d really appreciate any input on:

- common things to check,

- whether this sounds like the same ECU/relay issue,

- or whether this is something realistically DIY-able.

Thanks in advance. Here are some photos, and a sped up video of what�s happening.

2020 Vantage Turbo and Exhaust mods

Khodges — Wed, 13 May 2026 11:44:20 GMT

Looking for some good information for turbo and exhaust upgrades. For now, I'm looking at the Pure 900's. The exhaust seems to be limited in choices when searching? Any good experiences out there?

Bentley Continental GT 2004 with emissions issues

GT Lad — Wed, 13 May 2026 11:38:23 GMT

Hi all,

I�m still looking for a Bentley Continental GT. I�ve come across another one for sale in Scotland(there�s not too may up here). Anyway, I'm looking at a 2004 model and this one seems ok but it failed its 2024 annual UK MOT(Emissions/safety check) on CO emissions and Lamda incorrect. Seller said it was fixed by adding fuel additive(he didn�t say what type) and driving a few hundred miles. The MOT website does show he done a few hundred miles in between MOT failure and MOT pass. I don�t take anything for granted when buying cars and I just want to check with the forum that adding fuel additives could indeed potentially fix lambda/CO emission problems. Can anyone comment?

Seller also said the few hundred mile drive also sorted a �dragging� rear calliper!! It went from �dragging excessively� to �dragging, but not excessively� in the MOT tests. I�m not to worried about this as I can check this if I view the car and there are repair kits for $50 on ebay. Do you need any diagnostics etc to change the calliper/bleed the brakes?

Thanks again

Tony

Cabriolet Drain Plug Cleaning Issues

FloydSR — Tue, 12 May 2026 20:53:09 GMT

Does anyone know where the rear drain plugs are for the cabriolets?

I know where the front drain plugs are, next the battery under the cowl, but where are the rear ones on the cabs? They go down between the metal heat shield and plastic fender right? But where do they begin?

Cheers to fun 🍻

06 Contential GT Coolant Leak (around turbo lines?)

minming — Tue, 12 May 2026 18:50:28 GMT

Having coolant leak. It suddenly went from MAX to ~0.5 gallons (~1.8 liters) below MIN in a few weeks.
Leak is not completely consistent. I think we saw some leak on the ground 1 day, but not other days.

Mechanic initially did a pressure test and found no leak. They dug around again and suspect that it is from the turbo lines.

They checked with dealer and said would likely need an engine out work. Thoughts from the photos below? Thank you!

Audio Issues

Camaz — Tue, 12 May 2026 15:26:22 GMT

Hi Everyone
I have a 2010 Bentley Continental GT Speed and I am having issues with my Audio system (Radio & CD)
The sound is usually muffled & basey sounding although sometimes i hear crackling in the passenger speakers and then the system works perfectly until I go over a bump and it returns to "muffled mode"

I checked out my fault codes with my Ross Tech & 2 Audio faults showed up
1 - 00418 Front Right DSP Mid-Bass Speaker (R102)
007 - Short to Ground
2 - 00875 Treble Speaker Front Right (R22)
007 - Short to Ground

I have checked out the connections to the amp in the rear of the car and they seem to be ok
I have removed the Passenger Door Card & checked cabling / connections & they seem to be ok
If i had a loose connection I would have expected to see a fault "Open Circut" not "Short to Ground" as shown ??

Does anyone have ideas of what to do next to fix my problem

I live in Florida between Tampa & Sarasota (Parrish) - if anyone knows of a good Bentley audio repair specialist I would greatly appreciate it

Looking forward to some great ideas / solutions from the team

Best Regards
Camaz

Replacing brake booster and Reuse DB-9 brake switch

Wildcat1212 — Sun, 10 May 2026 12:44:42 GMT

AM says if you replace the brake booster assembly you need to install new brake light stot switch which turn s on brake light when you apply the brake.

I had hissing high pitched noise in cold weather when I apply brake and release it for a while initially it was intermittent but then because more frequent over 2-3 years so finally decided to replace brake booster assembly. Found on eBay from 2016 db9 salvage part came with booster, master cylinder and brake fluid reservoir ( which mine had innumerable fine cracks)

swapping out booster is not tgat difficult but you do have to move coolant reservoir (held by 2 bolts) , disconnect 2 tubes on right of reservoir and one on left side then remove 2 bolts which holds large Reiner tube from bottom of reservoir going to front of car on side wall that will give you flexibility to just flip the reservoir bump about 90 degree , you also have to loose oil dip stick not have to remove completely but loosen it so it can be moved out of the way to creat space for booster to come out

you have to disconnect two brake liners with 11 mm ratchet from master cylinder, remove 2 bolts

you know I will just post a video on this

back to reusing the switch see this video

All the issues with my GT speed over the years

TheManWithThe7 — Sun, 10 May 2026 01:18:44 GMT

Just wanted to share some info on my 16 GT speed in case someone was in the market for one

I bought it cpo in 2022 with 30k miles. Extended cpo twice so 5 years total coverage. It�s my daily driver. All of these repairs were done under warranty

1. 33k miles - Front Wheel bearings went bad after driving over rumble strips

2. 35k miles- trunk water leak- exit drains were clogged- cleared

3. 38k miles- clunking noise heard over bumps at low speeds- upper and lower control arms

4. 45k miles- forgot what yellow warning light came on but my steering spring clock sensor went out

5. 51k miles- car dropped on one side- strut bushing went out

6. 55k miles- front left shock clunking - replaced

7. 56k miles- front right shock clunking- replaced

8. 57k miles- vibration in highway speeds when turning- steering rack replaced

9. 58k miles- steering wheel stiff as a rock when turning for the first few minutes after start- steering module replaced in trunk

10. 60k miles- clucking over low speeds- lower control arms replaced again

11. 60k miles- dealership noticed valve cover gaskets leaking

I love the car but it�s been in the shop for a cumulative of 4 months while getting all these things replaced. Still wouldn�t give it up until I absolutely have to which is right before the warranty ends

Front Sensors Not Working

brightoncorgi — Sat, 09 May 2026 22:56:08 GMT

My front parking sensors are no longer working. The rear and camera work fine. When I press the parking sensor button, it flashes. It should just stay on if I recall.

Any ideas?
