Hi mate. I specialise in car electronics repairs in Australia. Specifically on higher end European cars. To me this is 100% an issue happening on the CANBUS network. Definitely a poor connection or grounded wire somewhere on the harness. Other than that, a faulty module could be causing this network to go down. Luckily there are 2 CANBUS networks (a high and low) the car can function on one but it will cause a lot of errors on the dash to appear. Best of luck with the repair

This might be different from state to state but no.. when you buy a car for a business you can NOT lemon law a car. I am pretty sure most of these cars are bought under a business and not personally.
@@matthewdale5838maybe the most idiotic comment in UA-cam history. And that’s saying a lot. Theres a ton of stupid people on UA-cam but you’ve risen above rest
It depends, honestly. I’ve heard people say you shouldn’t buy one unless it’s less than 10% of your net worth. If you're worth $10 million, then maybe spending $1 million on a car isn't insane, but if you're only worth $500K, it's probably not the best move.
Exactly. It's not just about the sticker price either. The maintenance, insurance, and depreciation can add up real fast. I've read that owning something like a Ferrari could cost you a few thousand dollars a year just to maintain.
That’s why I feel like wealth management plays such a big role here. If you’re not balancing your investments with your lifestyle purchases, you might be setting yourself up for a shortfall later. You can’t put all your money into luxury and forget about long-term goals.
Yeah, I agree. You have to ask yourself, 'Am I sacrificing my future for a car now?' Personally, I have a rule where I only buy toys-like cars or vacations-after I've hit certain milestones with my investments.
That's smart. I think too many people get caught up in the flashy stuff without thinking about whether they’ve really secured their financial future. I know for me, I worked with my advisor to set up a plan where my investments generate enough returns before I spend on anything luxury

I get thoroughly pissed off when my Nissan leaf won’t connect to my phone! I couldn’t cope in your position. Keep up the great UA-cam content and good luck with your Ferrari battle.
I remember on Top Gear when a Ferrari with screens for the first time etc was reviewed, and even then they said do NOT buy it as it was full of electrical problems and broke down a lot. Your car has a fault in the wiring loom, or an electrical distribution device. It’s a design flaw in a common part across the cars.
The Ferrari brush off was invented by Enzo. Ferrari's customer service is legendarily atrocious. They care so little about their customers and are so rude to the one's with problems that Ferrucio Lamborghini started to build cars. You are not the first and not the last that's treated like shit by Ferrari.
I heard Ferrucio went to Enzo with recommendation for better clutches. Enzo basically said wtf, you build tractors, get out of here. Lamborghini super cars were born.
boils my blood i'll support my man Nico and boycott Ferrari and not buy one this year.....its shocking, i'll carry on driving my mk4 golf just for you Nico, sorry couldnt join you on gumball, was a slight financial issue the last minute, the lottery ticket didnt go through as promised in the ad

@@markusstevensakabiginfinit9523 That's totally different and Jay knows it, that was while Enzo was around, and the brand was what they said for the most part, always pretentious, but a lot better back then.
This will be the inevitable downfall of all modern cars and why in 50 years no one is going to be cruising around in their "vintage" 2023 Ferrari, Lamborghini, Etc. The cars are too dependent on computers and sensors that will eventually fail and either won't be able to be repaired or you wont be able to get the replacement parts any longer.
Sadly you haven’t seen anything yet. A lot of it these days is to do with regulation and laws over safety and monitoring. All new EU cars must now be fitted with a system that reads road signs and controls your speed automatically, otherwise they can’t be sold in the EU. You can override the system, for now, but it’s yet more tech being forced into cars. They will be regulating self driving tech next too.
In America there are what's called lemon laws. The fact that the car has been to 7 dealerships within a relatively short period of time would legally classify that car as a lemon and the seller by law would have to either replace the car or give you a full refund, whichever you prefer. I would hope that the UK has something similar.
I've lemoned 3 cars in USA and you do not get all your money back. There is a formula that is used to calculate depreciation. Its total BS but its better then nothing.
@@MrMlbfan6Play a part?? Like I said.... I've done it THREE times. How many have you done? I wish I could post pic of the payment breakdown and calculations. Unless you have gone through with an actual lemon claim, you have zero grounds to talk.
@@mrufo2297 you got stuck with 3 lemons? That's horrible luck. Every used car that I have ever purchased I paid $400 to specialty mechanics to get checked out before purchasing. Only once was an issue found when my dad tried to buy his dream car, a Thunderbird. It drove down the street crooked, which we would have never noticed without that mechanic. I have no reason not to believe anything that you stated. I am aware of the laws, but have never read the literature of the law. If there is a calculation that's unfair but good to know and I appreciate you sharing that because I will be sure to document everything within the first year of any used car I purchase in the future. I never buy new because I see that as a rip off. I always buy used with under 20,000 miles, and around 2 years old. That seems to be the sweet spot to get the best deal. I once considered selling my Lincoln LS because it had a constant issue with the same sensor going bad after I put about 80,000 mi on it and I got sick of dealing with it. 3 different dealerships, about $2,500 total. They all claimed to solve the problem, and it resurfaced a week later and none of them could figure it out. I couldn't morally sell the car even though the sensor issue was sporadic and if someone took it for a test drive they would never know. If I cleared all the codes and they took it to a mechanic they would never know. Instead of selling it I just donated it to charity. People that knowingly sell these cars are scum. I wish you better luck in the future.
I guarantee there's not many places on earth youll get Ferrari and Lamborghini techs to come and work on your vehicles on the grid right in front of all thoes people talk about pressure. Thoes guys are awesome 👍
Really feel for you nico. Heart breaking. The fact is, they are so complicated now, it’s like searching for a needle in a haystack. Maybe they’ll never find the fault. I would reject it under the sales of goods act, section 13 (I think) “Goods bought not good for purpose”. Ferrari should give you an exact replacement or a full refund!
Don't, that idiot destroyed his car thé first day by letting his Friends to go full on thé donuts,....who does donuts with a Ferrari ????? Only idiots ...
Watching all the Gumball action from You, Mr Jww and DDE. So sorry your issues are ruining this experience for you. Hope things come right with the car.
Congratulations on the drop of your Gumball watch, it’s unfortunate that Ferrari has been failing you. I love your enthusiasm and appreciation for the people who support you.
Ferrari dealer had it for 3 months, put 1000 miles on it and said it was good to go. Should be have still sent it blindly, no, but you would like to think after that process it would be good.
@@martinsiedlecki he's a dunce for paying ferrari to fix his car, they claim they fix it put miles on his car and then it's not fixed?.... are you dunce?
THIS IS shamefull for ferrari, brand new car basically and still having issues, LIKE WTF???? is there no warranty or anything and a mammoth of a company yet cant fix an electrical issue? i can feel his tension through the video, 500,000 pound car and such bullshit from ferrari
Ferrari are a bit renowned for electrical issues since they started putting screens and computers in their cars.. Italian and Fiat engineering for you.
@@justwayne4785 they revoked it for him changing a exhaust and yet regardless of him accepting it or not they still haven't found the issue ( regardless which ferrari authorised mechanic he goes to)
@@faizi8464 yep, I know they revoked it for the 3rd party exhaust, I was just pointing out that they have a warranty. Personally I don’t understand why you’d change the exhaust while you’re going through issues trying to get your car fixed under warranty, but it is bizarre that it seems to be unfixable.
It boggles my mind how he can't put 2 and 2 together and bring the spare battery with him at very least. If he's to continue driving it with a broken alternator that is overcharging
He had it coming for him though. Very dumb to assume all the problems would just magically disappear and that alternator would just fix itself. Overvoltage can screw up ECUs too, not just make it unpleasant. I wouldn't feel too sorry because this is just dumb. He didn't even think to bring a spare battery with him. 🤦♂
Don’t speak like you know his situation. More happens with these peoples lives than you see on camera. You have no idea what’s gon into getting that car there and for it to all fall apart is heart braking.

Half a million pounds, absolutely disgusting. I’m so sorry your trip was ruined. Doesn’t matter how rich you are this is totally unacceptable. Keep your chin up dude. That car needs to go
Oh! Definitely!! Especially after calling out the execs openly in this video and mentioning Enzo Ferrari? Yeah he's definitely getting that cease and desist 😂😂
@@nucphyschem1 I’ve always loved their cars since the 355 to the 812. I know other brands do this but none do it bigger than Ferrari making people who want to be on their list buy so so so many cars that aren’t all that impressive. It’s no secret and eventho Schmee says he didn’t buy every single Ferrari made in the last couple of years just to get 1 or 2 down the road that he wants, it seems pretty obvious. I can see the Roma lighting the supercar world on fire.
From an Electrical Engineer's point of view it sounds like a Wiring Harness is all screwed up. Too many faults from different systems at the exact same time. I would be pulling wiring diagrams and find the middle point and start taking measurements. Then find the point where all the systems are going too. It's definitely electrical. Nothing mechanical or sensors. I would be asking Ferrari for the full wiring diagrams for your car and then take it to an Electrical Engineer. Not a Ferrari Mechanic.
Well the good news is, replacing the ECU is significantly easier than going through the entire wiring harness. I would swap the ECU, clear faults and see whether Happens. If fault still exists, work through the wiring harness connectors and then harness itself. The worst part is, things that have nothing to do with one another can cause weird errors…for example if my windshield wiper fuse blow, I lose control to my 4wd/transfer case and the manual does not show that fuse having any relation to it.
@@galaxydrifter9799i agree time has to be spent on working it out. Something that Ferrari aren’t willing to commit their techs into doing when the workshop charges $300+ p/hr to Head Office for warranty work. Time is the one thing they have to justify at a very high hourly cost - so sort probs quickly and push ‘em out the door is their thing
@@GlamGoddessGoals I’ve never heard of the term “Italian wiring” before. I don’t think the copper content, thickness or conductivity of the wire is different at all, but please enlighten me..??
Anything mechanical would be better. I'm surprised an automatic watch guy is so into cars with this many computer systems. If something breaks in a modern car a laptop comes out. Something breaks in an older car a toolkit comes out. An old school Porsche 911 would be the ultimate watch guy car, everything mechanical and looks absolutely killer.
@@Atrociousnes Yes you can. Because why would an exhaust pipe change completely destroy the cars entire electrical system. Answer: It can't. So the warranty should still be valid (if you take them to court)
@@abowden5079 my point is not messing with it till that's expired is better to do because it doesn't give the company a chance to try stuff like this and avoids having to now waste money suing them
@@abowden5079 Agreed, but you put yourself in a worse position. The issue here is that this car had issues from the start. If I was in his position, I wouldn’t put an exhaust to void the warranty until I’m sure the issue is gone, perhaps waiting a full year if you have to. Going to court against a massive company like Ferrari is way harder than you think and is incredibly long.
id be demanding my money back from the dealership who " Fixed " the car in the first place. Then force them to fix the car. No way the Exhaust did all this. This is poor assembly work. I think you have a strong case for Ferrari being sued for not only the exhaust, transport all over the world after being told it was "Fixed", and everything else.
I really hope the technicians in Vietnam were able to check the part I mentioned, hats off to them for working on a weekend! Stay safe Nico, driving a rwd V12 in the rain without traction control is mad.
This is one of the reason's why you should never buy a new Ferrari because the technician's can be great but the Ferrari's management have a awful reputation and are showing here how little they care about the customer's
Bro, so sorry for everything you are going through. I was in the moment with you when you remarked about how in 2015 you were a spectator in the audience during Gumball and you said to yourself you would be part of this one day... That moment resonated with me... Keep your chin up Bro, it may not seem like it right now with everything the Ferrari, however, live in the moment... You have made your dreams come true! All the Best Nico!!!
Haha right, but he won't need them. I don't think Nico will ever buy a Ferrari again. Although he admits he loves the car(s). It's just the service that is worse than shit
NICO. Just check engine temp sensors ... when the car is in traffic , the fan kicks in, and it then seems to disturb the ECU . OIL TEMP SENSORS AND ENGINE TEMP SENSORS . The electric fan trips it into like a limp mode. Just my opinion
My heart goes out to you Nico, I feel your stress. You deserve better, but I'm glad you are able to view your experience as a leason you have to learn. Sending love from Canada (home of DDE)
At this point Ferrari should just replace the wiring loom, all the connectors and all the electronics. Like Land Rover or Mini do, multiple electrical issues = new loom first.
@@Make-Asylums-Great-Again Well just an FYI since you wanna be an asshole, Ireland has the same consumer protection laws in regards to new cars its just not called a lemon law. So kick rocks bud.
Thank you. I have a nice Porsche collection and I'm getting a little bored with the brand sometimes. I have been looking at Ferrari 812 GTS but after watching this I am actually very happy with my Porsches and will abandon my plans to buy a Ferrari.
Literally any other car than Ferrari would be better. Unreliable low quality junk. Look at the stitching on his seats, it's crooked asf. I know they hand stitch the seats but this is not a 50k car. If everything else is made so poorly then why would they want so much money for their garbage product. F them
Mate, you write your own story. Ferrari should be held liable for all the damages. Financial and emotional. No way o2 sensors will cause all those malfunctions on your car. Use your platform to get them to sort this out. Supporting you on this journey.
That is crazy. One thing is for sure Ferrari should fix that shit that’s absolutely ridiculous! Hope you can get everything figured out Nico I enjoy the channel. It’s not the car we appreciate. We appreciate you and your time and effort for producing an awesome channel.
Amazing attire for the big stage Nico. Such a shame the faults are still there, you were so excited to get it back when I was talking to you in the 1889 Club #RAWA
Man I feel your pain. A short story, I'm the original owner of a C6 vette, it crapped out, major mistake taking to a dealer here in Ventura, CA on Jan 30, needed a new throttle body, they could not fix it, they had it until July 8 of this year, still not fixed. Went to an independent and fixed in a day. I was told I would have to sue the dealer but got ahold of State of CA BAR with my complete documentation and the money I spent was fully refunded, plus extra for all the B S and lies, I would definitely would sue Ferrari, with your documentation, plus the expenditures for Gumball relying on that car, you will win!
Its Ferrari mate, its a multi billion dollar brand, they wouldn’t care about small fish no matter how much noise they make, Ferrari is not for everyone and the few people that buy Ferrari will not be fazed due to this unfortunate situation, Nico should just follow the law to get compensated and stay away from wannabes like that jww man, he will have luck with the Ferrari.
Why did you take a car half way round the world that’s never worked for any meaningful period of time, I feel bad for you but that cars never worked so why even bother when you knew this would be the outcome. It’s a form of self harm brother
Great video!! I can recall when I was homeless and faced many things in life until $70,000 biweekly began rolling in and my life went from a homeless nobody to a different person with good things to offer!!!!
Wow 😱 I know her too, Caroline Maria Bravo is a remarkable individual who has brought immense positivity and inspiration into my life. Her unwavering wisdom has been an invaluable asset, enriching my journey in countless ways
Feel for you mate. These big brands are always let down by the approach and attitude towards issues. Whilst your dealer may have done what they can, no doubt they are / were limited by the instruction from Ferrari themselves. Piss poor and I hope you have every success with any legal action you take.
I'm remembering an older video I watched with either DDE, or one of their friends.... I think DDE though, that was having the same exact problem. They switched the aftermarket exhaust they put in with the original one, and it fixed all of the problems. Then they left the original in, until they had someone that knew what they were doing, to come and use their diagnostics machine to reset something in the system. It ended up working perfectly again with no issues, so they found out that it was the aftermarket exhaust that was causing the problems, because the computer in the car wouldn't recognize the aftermarket exhaust. Those kinds of cars systems are specked to their Ferrari parts alone. It took someone that really knew what they were doing to fix the problem, and they were able to put the aftermarket exhaust back on after they did an upgrade to the system. Good luck man, we're all rooting for you!
I don’t think you heard him right. He put the exhaust on 8 months after he bought it. The problem surfaced 3 days after he bought it. So the exhaust isn’t the issue.
@@michaelcady1945 I must have missed that, but know that I'm thinking about it, Nico might have the same problem Damon has. When your battery starts to go bad, and it doesn't have enough juice, it will either shut down certain electronics in the car to save on battery. Then when you start the car finally, and get it moving, the alternator begins to slowly charge the battery. It's gonna come to a time though that the battery gets so bad, that it won't start the car period, no matter how you try to charge it. As soon as you sit in the car and put the key in, all of the dash lights, and every other electronic system starts up right away. When this happens, it's sucking all the juice you have left in that battery. I would say to ask a friend there if you can borrow their battery for a minute. If you plug that one in, and the electronics start to work, along with the car starting, then you know what it is. Good luck Nico, I'm rooting for you!
I feel so bad for Nico… seeing him go through that stress and all the emotions… feeling like he’s let down the fans when he’s dealing with that all. Thank you for showing it all and sharing what is happening - you’re amazing personality still shows through and I hope the Gumball Experience gets better from here.
I'm just watching so idk what's about to happen...but I'm hoping Nico just rents something reliable like a camery lol ...jk like a Lambo of something...idk what's up with Ferrari but they already mad at Nico for switching for new pipes and filming it ..cry babies at Ferrari I swear
My heart fucking hurts for you Nico but as you promoted with the.new time piece, life is full of moments, some good, some bad, take the lessons from them all and keep moving forward!
@@JakubVacek42The car is kinda pivotal in the completion of the rally. Cars can really hamper how you feel sometimes when they start acting up. I’ve had a BMW 5 series with electrical issues and overheating issues that I never trusted that car each time I drove it. I’ve also had a VW Touareg that had electrical issues shutting off the car while driving, limp mode and not starting with the start button or key. They can be headaches at times.
Ferrari as a company is complete dogshit. Haven't met anyone who has had a single good experience after giving them money. The cars are beautiful, yet mechanically and electronically completely fked from the start.
So sad for you Nico… There should be better souvenir whilst being part of a gumball rally. If you manage to reach the end it will be quite an accomplishment!
There is something really wrong with that car, more like a lemon afterall. The issue pops up 3 days after delivery and yet they blame novitec for the exhaust and void the warranty which was put on the car months after the initial issue showed up. Seem like lawsuit is the reasonable way for you to get justice, you have a strong case with evidence the errors began way before you change the exhaust, you already put back the stock catback system after 3 months the car under the care of Ferrari service center yet the problem still exist. Ferrari make an absolute brilliant car with the 812, but how they handle customer service truely disrespect the brand. Hope all goes well Nico!

If Ferrari is not good enough for Jay Leno, then no one should be buying a Ferrari.
Leno did say he was thinking about getting a F40. Which would be epic
@@markusstevensakabiginfinit9523 his problem is not with Ferrari cars it's with their dealers .. the f40 is an epic car before Ferrari became sh***t
THIS!^^^ Bunch of pretentious bad words i can't say cause im pushing the limits of YT comment Notsees(yea that other word gets u flagged soooo).
@@markusstevensakabiginfinit9523 That's totally different and Jay knows it, that was while Enzo was around, and the brand was what they said for the most part, always pretentious, but a lot better back then.
Nobody around the world cares who Jay Leno is ... only americans. The world don't know him and I have no reason at all to defend Ferrari here
This will be the inevitable downfall of all modern cars and why in 50 years no one is going to be cruising around in their "vintage" 2023 Ferrari, Lamborghini, Etc. The cars are too dependent on computers and sensors that will eventually fail and either won't be able to be repaired or you wont be able to get the replacement parts any longer.
Sadly you haven’t seen anything yet. A lot of it these days is to do with regulation and laws over safety and monitoring. All new EU cars must now be fitted with a system that reads road signs and controls your speed automatically, otherwise they can’t be sold in the EU. You can override the system, for now, but it’s yet more tech being forced into cars. They will be regulating self driving tech next too.
You are so right - and just wait till those display screens start to fail......
100% correct and it’s already happening. Buy pre-2010 sports cars from now on and hold them. In 30+ years you’ll cash in.
Nico, I love your energy, your gratefulness. You are contagious bro.
In America there are what's called lemon laws. The fact that the car has been to 7 dealerships within a relatively short period of time would legally classify that car as a lemon and the seller by law would have to either replace the car or give you a full refund, whichever you prefer. I would hope that the UK has something similar.
I've lemoned 3 cars in USA and you do not get all your money back. There is a formula that is used to calculate depreciation. Its total BS but its better then nothing.
@@mrufo2297yes you do unless there’s proof you play a part
@@MrMlbfan6Play a part?? Like I said.... I've done it THREE times. How many have you done? I wish I could post pic of the payment breakdown and calculations. Unless you have gone through with an actual lemon claim, you have zero grounds to talk.
@@mrufo2297 you got stuck with 3 lemons? That's horrible luck. Every used car that I have ever purchased I paid $400 to specialty mechanics to get checked out before purchasing. Only once was an issue found when my dad tried to buy his dream car, a Thunderbird. It drove down the street crooked, which we would have never noticed without that mechanic. I have no reason not to believe anything that you stated. I am aware of the laws, but have never read the literature of the law. If there is a calculation that's unfair but good to know and I appreciate you sharing that because I will be sure to document everything within the first year of any used car I purchase in the future. I never buy new because I see that as a rip off. I always buy used with under 20,000 miles, and around 2 years old. That seems to be the sweet spot to get the best deal. I once considered selling my Lincoln LS because it had a constant issue with the same sensor going bad after I put about 80,000 mi on it and I got sick of dealing with it. 3 different dealerships, about $2,500 total. They all claimed to solve the problem, and it resurfaced a week later and none of them could figure it out. I couldn't morally sell the car even though the sensor issue was sporadic and if someone took it for a test drive they would never know. If I cleared all the codes and they took it to a mechanic they would never know. Instead of selling it I just donated it to charity. People that knowingly sell these cars are scum. I wish you better luck in the future.
Nothing but respect for this man the grind is insane well deserved and thanks for bringing us on your journeys
You have porsche with a pristine condition but you still bring your " dream car " with tons of headache following you during your gumball journey.
Those techs are bad ass. They understand customer service to the top! Thats who i want working on my supercars.
I guarantee there's not many places on earth youll get Ferrari and Lamborghini techs to come and work on your vehicles on the grid right in front of all thoes people talk about pressure. Thoes guys are awesome 👍
Really feel for you nico. Heart breaking. The fact is, they are so complicated now, it’s like searching for a needle in a haystack. Maybe they’ll never find the fault. I would reject it under the sales of goods act, section 13 (I think) “Goods bought not good for purpose”. Ferrari should give you an exact replacement or a full refund!
Don't, that idiot destroyed his car thé first day by letting his Friends to go full on thé donuts,....who does donuts with a Ferrari ????? Only idiots ...

Watching all the Gumball action from You, Mr Jww and DDE. So sorry your issues are ruining this experience for you. Hope things come right with the car.
Congratulations on the drop of your Gumball watch, it’s unfortunate that Ferrari has been failing you. I love your enthusiasm and appreciation for the people who support you.
Why take a car half way across the world knowing it has issues???
He explains this in the previous video.
Ferrari dealer had it for 3 months, put 1000 miles on it and said it was good to go. Should be have still sent it blindly, no, but you would like to think after that process it would be good.
He is a bit of a dunce though
Nostalgia. Car has his kids name I think.
@@martinsiedlecki he's a dunce for paying ferrari to fix his car, they claim they fix it put miles on his car and then it's not fixed?.... are you dunce?
Those Ferrari techs were absolutely phenomenal. They seem like such genuinely good lads
THIS IS shamefull for ferrari, brand new car basically and still having issues, LIKE WTF???? is there no warranty or anything and a mammoth of a company yet cant fix an electrical issue?
i can feel his tension through the video, 500,000 pound car and such bullshit from ferrari
Ferrari are a bit renowned for electrical issues since they started putting screens and computers in their cars.. Italian and Fiat engineering for you.
Ferrari gives a 5yr warranty.
@@justwayne4785 they revoked it for him changing a exhaust and yet regardless of him accepting it or not they still haven't found the issue ( regardless which ferrari authorised mechanic he goes to)
@@faizi8464 yep, I know they revoked it for the 3rd party exhaust, I was just pointing out that they have a warranty.
Personally I don’t understand why you’d change the exhaust while you’re going through issues trying to get your car fixed under warranty, but it is bizarre that it seems to be unfixable.
Take that prancing horse back to the dealership and get you a dam raging bull already 1:10
gah damn that raging bull in blue
It boggles my mind how he can't put 2 and 2 together and bring the spare battery with him at very least. If he's to continue driving it with a broken alternator that is overcharging
i think nico is the problem he has problems with every car he owns
The prancing bull is next door not working
@@SmOgER107 different ferrari dealerships couldn't fix an alternator?
Good morning Nico from Texas, love your videos my brother have a great time out there with your friends!😎👍🏼
I feel so sorry for you,you’ve been looking forward to doing a gumball since 2016 keep your chin up fella
He had it coming for him though. Very dumb to assume all the problems would just magically disappear and that alternator would just fix itself. Overvoltage can screw up ECUs too, not just make it unpleasant. I wouldn't feel too sorry because this is just dumb. He didn't even think to bring a spare battery with him. 🤦♂
Don’t speak like you know his situation. More happens with these peoples lives than you see on camera. You have no idea what’s gon into getting that car there and for it to all fall apart is heart braking.
James is a real friend, can see how he is really lifting your spirits up.
Even though this is a shitty stressful situation it’s events like this that will make great stories one day!
your kidding right he seemed more interested in his soup...
Didn't seem to care that much to be honest
He came across as a twat, zero help or interest in Nico's situation. The bowl of soup had more empathy
There isn't much he can help with to be honest it look like the whole gumball rally is very stress full this time he knew the car had problems and still sent it
@@drunknspike I’m glad you get it
Nico i really hope that the rest of your Gumball journey continues to improve mate! Your heartfelt pain on the grid was heartbreaking mate, but kudos to you for pushing on and getting to the 1st stop! Push on mate!
Half a million pounds, absolutely disgusting. I’m so sorry your trip was ruined. Doesn’t matter how rich you are this is totally unacceptable. Keep your chin up dude. That car needs to go
Sell the failing horse and buy a richard mielle watch and get a skyline with the change ?😡🕰⏱
I’m calling it now , Nico’s getting the infamous Ferrari cease and desist
Oh! Definitely!! Especially after calling out the execs openly in this video and mentioning Enzo Ferrari? Yeah he's definitely getting that cease and desist 😂😂
@@p2big706getting before DDE lol
Gutted😢
There is nothing Ferrari can say or do to anyone that points out the fuckups in their car and using their names. It'd all public info even in asia.
lol if they tried that he would ridicule them more and show the letter in a video.
Super glad you got off the grid and reunited with the boys!
Sucks that they’ll just blame Novitec no matter what. An easy out for Ferrari without merit. Novitec does loads of Ferraris, it’s not the exhaust
really speaks to what sort of brand ferrari is anymore. They are not worth it full stop
@@nucphyschem1 I’ve always loved their cars since the 355 to the 812. I know other brands do this but none do it bigger than Ferrari making people who want to be on their list buy so so so many cars that aren’t all that impressive. It’s no secret and eventho Schmee says he didn’t buy every single Ferrari made in the last couple of years just to get 1 or 2 down the road that he wants, it seems pretty obvious. I can see the Roma lighting the supercar world on fire.
He shouldn't have been dumb enough to mod it till after he got it fixed.
Kidnap the Ferrari tech, take him with you, and make sure he brings his laptop.
At least you managed to get to the first stop.
Good on you Nicco. That is the heart of gumball.
We all feel for you.
Good luck
😎😎😎👍👍👍
From an Electrical Engineer's point of view it sounds like a Wiring Harness is all screwed up. Too many faults from different systems at the exact same time. I would be pulling wiring diagrams and find the middle point and start taking measurements. Then find the point where all the systems are going too. It's definitely electrical. Nothing mechanical or sensors. I would be asking Ferrari for the full wiring diagrams for your car and then take it to an Electrical Engineer. Not a Ferrari Mechanic.
Well the good news is, replacing the ECU is significantly easier than going through the entire wiring harness. I would swap the ECU, clear faults and see whether
Happens. If fault still exists, work through the wiring harness connectors and then harness itself. The worst part is, things that have nothing to do with one another can cause weird errors…for example if my windshield wiper fuse blow, I lose control to my 4wd/transfer case and the manual does not show that fuse having any relation to it.
It's most likely a problematic ECU or a shit grounding point, just have to spend enough time to figure out
@@galaxydrifter9799i agree time has to be spent on working it out. Something that Ferrari aren’t willing to commit their techs into doing when the workshop charges $300+ p/hr to Head Office for warranty work. Time is the one thing they have to justify at a very high hourly cost - so sort probs quickly and push ‘em out the door is their thing
Don’t forget this is Italian wiring here 😂😂😂
@@GlamGoddessGoals I’ve never heard of the term “Italian wiring” before. I don’t think the copper content, thickness or conductivity of the wire is different at all, but please enlighten me..??
Rumour has it Hublot got into the car before Nico
“These people are more happy than me in a supercar”
😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨
That hit
Porsche GT3 would be a better choice to bring if the 812 has a history of issues. Hopefully Nico gets through this 🍀
Anything mechanical would be better.
I'm surprised an automatic watch guy is so into cars with this many computer systems. If something breaks in a modern car a laptop comes out. Something breaks in an older car a toolkit comes out.
An old school Porsche 911 would be the ultimate watch guy car, everything mechanical and looks absolutely killer.
@@dukke888 Didn't he have issues with a GT3 as well?
Except he actually screwed the engine on a GT3 as well
If i had that kind of cash id get a singer porsche
Rich men’s problems brother… comes with the territory
Nico,
I enjoy watching you on DDE
Glad you’re here!
Not a big fan of Ferrari but every manufacturer has their issues
Nico I’m here to support! I wish you the best!!
For the future, when buying a new car, keep it stock until the warranty is gone, then modify just so they can't d you around
Dude thats like a three year warranty with unlimited mileage. No body waits for such long 😅
@@hello-lw3uq hey then you can't complain when they don't warranty your car 🤣
@@Atrociousnes Yes you can. Because why would an exhaust pipe change completely destroy the cars entire electrical system. Answer: It can't. So the warranty should still be valid (if you take them to court)
@@abowden5079 my point is not messing with it till that's expired is better to do because it doesn't give the company a chance to try stuff like this and avoids having to now waste money suing them
@@abowden5079 Agreed, but you put yourself in a worse position. The issue here is that this car had issues from the start. If I was in his position, I wouldn’t put an exhaust to void the warranty until I’m sure the issue is gone, perhaps waiting a full year if you have to. Going to court against a massive company like Ferrari is way harder than you think and is incredibly long.
Stay positive Nico, you are on Gumball living the dream - fingers crossed for you
id be demanding my money back from the dealership who " Fixed " the car in the first place. Then force them to fix the car. No way the Exhaust did all this. This is poor assembly work. I think you have a strong case for Ferrari being sued for not only the exhaust, transport all over the world after being told it was "Fixed", and everything else.
Wild how an 80s Italian supercar would have less problems…
They were built properly with love and craftmanship!
None of that computer crap in the early cars. True driver’s cars
ironically the computers that are made to help you end up causing the problems
@@TheCloudfoot72 80s Italian cars were shit. Thats why he made this comment. They have always been known to be as reliable as a glass hammer.
Ya, 80's super cars had awesome electrical systems. They never had issues with burning up or nothing like that🤣🤣🤣
Hang in there Nico you handle difficult situations with class man
I really hope the technicians in Vietnam were able to check the part I mentioned, hats off to them for working on a weekend! Stay safe Nico, driving a rwd V12 in the rain without traction control is mad.
This is one of the reason's why you should never buy a new Ferrari because the technician's can be great but the Ferrari's management have a awful reputation and are showing here how little they care about the customer's
Bro, so sorry for everything you are going through. I was in the moment with you when you remarked about how in 2015 you were a spectator in the audience during Gumball and you said to yourself you would be part of this one day...
That moment resonated with me...
Keep your chin up Bro, it may not seem like it right now with everything the Ferrari, however, live in the moment...
You have made your dreams come true!
All the Best Nico!!!
4:23 speak your mind Nico hahah love it my dude
Hopefully you get it sorted nico
Well, I guess Nico won’t be getting any special allocations from Ferrari now😂
Haha right, but he won't need them. I don't think Nico will ever buy a Ferrari again. Although he admits he loves the car(s). It's just the service that is worse than shit
I really feel for you Nico. I can’t even imagine how frustrating that must be. Hang in there mate!
NICO. Just check engine temp sensors ... when the car is in traffic , the fan kicks in, and it then seems to disturb the ECU . OIL TEMP SENSORS AND ENGINE TEMP SENSORS . The electric fan trips it into like a limp mode. Just my opinion
11:36 I wonder if Ferrari is intentionally sabotaging you...?
My heart goes out to you Nico, I feel your stress. You deserve better, but I'm glad you are able to view your experience as a leason you have to learn. Sending love from Canada (home of DDE)
Vikk from the sidemen and speed on the gumball 😂
At this point Ferrari should just replace the wiring loom, all the connectors and all the electronics. Like Land Rover or Mini do, multiple electrical issues = new loom first.
Facts what I would do start with loom the bcm then ecu
I had this problem in my VW Polo (LOL) you have to re-do the entire wiring harness

Thank you. I have a nice Porsche collection and I'm getting a little bored with the brand sometimes. I have been looking at Ferrari 812 GTS but after watching this I am actually very happy with my Porsches and will abandon my plans to buy a Ferrari.
Literally any other car than Ferrari would be better. Unreliable low quality junk. Look at the stitching on his seats, it's crooked asf. I know they hand stitch the seats but this is not a 50k car.

Sue them for $2M. Its unacceptable. They should replace the car fully and pay back your all service fees.
Mate, you write your own story. Ferrari should be held liable for all the damages. Financial and emotional. No way o2 sensors will cause all those malfunctions on your car. Use your platform to get them to sort this out. Supporting you on this journey.
That is crazy. One thing is for sure Ferrari should fix that shit that’s absolutely ridiculous! Hope you can get everything figured out Nico I enjoy the channel. It’s not the car we appreciate. We appreciate you and your time and effort for producing an awesome channel.

Amazing attire for the big stage Nico. Such a shame the faults are still there, you were so excited to get it back when I was talking to you in the 1889 Club #RAWA
Man I feel your pain. A short story, I'm the original owner of a C6 vette, it crapped out, major mistake taking to a dealer here in Ventura, CA on Jan 30, needed a new throttle body, they could not fix it, they had it until July 8 of this year, still not fixed. Went to an independent and fixed in a day. I was told I would have to sue the dealer but got ahold of State of CA BAR with my complete documentation and the money I spent was fully refunded, plus extra for all the B S and lies, I would definitely would sue Ferrari, with your documentation, plus the expenditures for Gumball relying on that car, you will win!
Its Ferrari mate, its a multi billion dollar brand, they wouldn’t care about small fish no matter how much noise they make, Ferrari is not for everyone and the few people that buy Ferrari will not be fazed due to this unfortunate situation, Nico should just follow the law to get compensated and stay away from wannabes like that jww man, he will have luck with the Ferrari.
Thats surprising for a C6 Vette. Theyre incredibly simple, reliable & have tons of aftermarket & online support.
Not in Europe
Why did you take a car half way round the world that’s never worked for any meaningful period of time, I feel bad for you but that cars never worked so why even bother when you knew this would be the outcome. It’s a form of self harm brother

Whilst your dealer may have done what they can, no doubt they are / were limited by the instruction from Ferrari themselves. Piss poor and I hope you have every success with any legal action you take.

Not gonna happen.
You're awesome ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
I'm remembering an older video I watched with either DDE, or one of their friends.... I think DDE though, that was having the same exact problem. They switched the aftermarket exhaust they put in with the original one, and it fixed all of the problems. Then they left the original in, until they had someone that knew what they were doing, to come and use their diagnostics machine to reset something in the system. It ended up working perfectly again with no issues, so they found out that it was the aftermarket exhaust that was causing the problems, because the computer in the car wouldn't recognize the aftermarket exhaust. Those kinds of cars systems are specked to their Ferrari parts alone. It took someone that really knew what they were doing to fix the problem, and they were able to put the aftermarket exhaust back on after they did an upgrade to the system. Good luck man, we're all rooting for you!
I don’t think you heard him right. He put the exhaust on 8 months after he bought it. The problem surfaced 3 days after he bought it. So the exhaust isn’t the issue.
@@michaelcady1945 I must have missed that, but know that I'm thinking about it, Nico might have the same problem Damon has. When your battery starts to go bad, and it doesn't have enough juice, it will either shut down certain electronics in the car to save on battery. Then when you start the car finally, and get it moving, the alternator begins to slowly charge the battery. It's gonna come to a time though that the battery gets so bad, that it won't start the car period, no matter how you try to charge it. As soon as you sit in the car and put the key in, all of the dash lights, and every other electronic system starts up right away. When this happens, it's sucking all the juice you have left in that battery. I would say to ask a friend there if you can borrow their battery for a minute. If you plug that one in, and the electronics start to work, along with the car starting, then you know what it is. Good luck Nico, I'm rooting for you!
I feel so bad for Nico… seeing him go through that stress and all the emotions… feeling like he’s let down the fans when he’s dealing with that all. Thank you for showing it all and sharing what is happening - you’re amazing personality still shows through and I hope the Gumball Experience gets better from here.

My heart fucking hurts for you Nico but as you promoted with the.new time piece, life is full of moments, some good, some bad, take the lessons from them all and keep moving forward!
@@JakubVacek42The car is kinda pivotal in the completion of the rally. Cars can really hamper how you feel sometimes when they start acting up. I’ve had a BMW 5 series with electrical issues and overheating issues that I never trusted that car each time I drove it. I’ve also had a VW Touareg that had electrical issues shutting off the car while driving, limp mode and not starting with the start button or key. They can be headaches at times.
Only one thing to say...sell the Ferrari and get a Lambo......you will not regret the decision...
If you were in I dia we would have fixed it for free just for the Love of GUMBALL and You !

Ferrari as a company is complete dogshit. Haven't met anyone who has had a single good experience after giving them money. The cars are beautiful, yet mechanically and electronically completely fked from the start.
The part when you call them dogshit ❤
It would be very smart for any exotic car brand to just jump on the opportunity to lend you a car for the gumball
with all the paperwork that just wont be possible.
So sad for you Nico… There should be better souvenir whilst being part of a gumball rally. If you manage to reach the end it will be quite an accomplishment!
There is something really wrong with that car, more like a lemon afterall. The issue pops up 3 days after delivery and yet they blame novitec for the exhaust and void the warranty which was put on the car months after the initial issue showed up. Seem like lawsuit is the reasonable way for you to get justice, you have a strong case with evidence the errors began way before you change the exhaust, you already put back the stock catback system after 3 months the car under the care of Ferrari service center yet the problem still exist. Ferrari make an absolute brilliant car with the 812, but how they handle customer service truely disrespect the brand. Hope all goes well Nico!
Did he take it to the dealer straight away after the 3 day fault?
electrical Gremlins have taken up residence in the car.
