Finally a fix, I am working on the fifth time this has happened.

 

[Mr. White]

Thanks again, Lamont. Good work as usual.

Odd that this applies only to 2011 Spyders. Lots of 2010 owners have had the problem. My Spyder is in the shop now for a new throttle body. Guess I'll have to take it in again for this one. Meanwhile, I keep my Torx driver handy and keep the cable lubed to minimize occurance.

I'm not sure why they didn't include the 2010 either as they were the first one to have this issue.

I will tell you that my bracket fix does not fix the cable slack. I had to adjust the slack out of the cable twice on this trip so you guys need to keep on that too.

I just had my parking brake spring replaced as per 2011-9. The Dealer was pretty sure it was covered under warranty. I haven't paid anything yet.

Had mine replaced on the "Pearl" last week. Covered under warranty.
