Strange noise when using FF on Turbo wheel
Looking for a contact number for Fanatec support.

My son has the Turbo steering wheel and when he is using full FF there is a noise from the unit. I have attached a recording of the noise.

Has anyone come across this before?

Does anyone have a contact number for Fanatec support.

You mean the sortoff high pitched noise? If so, I got that too, no idea if it is supposed to do that, my G25 also did it.

The squeak noise? I assumed that was something to do with the belts. It goes away after about half a lap. I guess it needs to warm up.
