I had to drop my F3 into a dealer for a quick check of my P060D error message while I was on my recent trip. He did not instill any confidence in me for a number of reasons. On my way out, I heard him telling a customer that the reason the customer was experiencing handling issues was that he had his front tyres at 16psi, and they should be at 30psi. As I didn’t know the year of the RT, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt until I hear the answer to the question - has there ever been an RT model that has had a spec of 30psi in the front tyres?
He also told me that he aligned Spyders “manually”, even though he had the “fancy” ROLO aligner as he was not prepared to draw lines on the floor and walls of his small workshop.:yikes:
He was very good in that he fitted me in to do a quick check, and insisted on plugging in Buds, even though I gave him the P060D code and its description when I arrived. He then proudly the showed me the readout, which was no more, no less that what I already had given him......an issue between the P1 and P2 throttle sensors. He then told me that he would have to pull the F3 apart to find the “disconnect” and would need the F3 for quite some time.
I thanked him for seeing me, and hightailed it out of there and rode the 3 hours home on the freeway..... which was a pain, as the only symptom of the P060D apart from the flashing warning is no Cruise Control. My next nearest dealer is some 6 hours away as my previous closest dealer (2hrs) gave back their BRP hat a couple of months ago.
Looks like I’ll have a 6 hour trip from now on......but I may yet decide that it is “all just too hard”
