Hey guys,
So, after having my G27 since the end of 2010 I've found the first issue: Whenever I go over a curb, the wheel off-centeres itself slightly to the left/right. Like, it loses its center position. Same when I make quick corrections with the wheel. In fact, quick corrections are even worse than going over a curb in terms of wheel alignment being offset.
I've Googled around a bit and found that the problem is probably the rotary encoder. So, I opened up my G27 and found the rotary encoder. It didn't look that much damaged. I did spot a few cracks however in the encoder but they were ever so slight cracks. Still, it probably causes the issue. I screwed everything back together and tried to drive again but without result: Still the same issue.
I definitely don't think I'll be able to race for 20 laps, the wheel becomes off-centered more lap after lap.
Is there anyone out here which has/had the same issue in the past? If so, please let me know if you've found the fix for this issue. Some people said that it's a good idea to buy a new encoder from this company: http://www.cmlaserservice.com/
What do you guys think about this issue? Please let me know.
Thanks in advance
