Hello all, I would like to take this opportunity to thank Thrustmaster. On monday March the 8, i ordered a set of Nascar Pro pedals springs (mine broke...), today i received them with a note on how to install them... Good work, i thought it would be nice to share my experience with you. Now i can go back to practice GPL, hehe. Regards, Christian Giroux.

I can only state my experience with TM for the 2 years I used my T2. I don't have any motives, as I have a TSW now <g>. In every case when I emailed TM for springs, pots, and tune up kit, I had the parts in 7-10 days. -- Don Burnette Palmetto Racing Dburn on Ten >Bullshit!!!. Thrustmaster stinks.

Don, Yes they have. Now I just wish they would get a little better at the practice of not requiring replacement parts <VBG> I just rebuilt by NPro last night before my league race. I replaced my bungee in the wheel because it was starting to be off center on return. You dont realize how loose the bungee is until you replace it with a fresh one =) Scott PA-Scott -- Scott B.

Well sorry to hear that, it must be annoying to wait for the parts. I kind of know since i wasn't able to drive GPL waiting for the springs. Maybe they ran out of the parts you ordered and they have to get new one ? As i stated i am very please by the service i recieved. Regards, Christian Giroux.
Hello Scott, you do have a good point, hehe. While i waited for my springs, i changed the wires from the steering. It turned out that my red buttons weren't working because the wires were cut. I also have a screwdriver (the tool not the drink hehe) standing by for tightning back the wheel screw. Christian Giroux.

By now they must be very practiced in the art of getting replacement parts to customers with broken products. Keep up the good work thrustmaster, ive been bitten once im not going to touch your shit again. Ilmore

One of the main reasons I support TM products and will continue to do so is because they support their customers. They used to monitor this ng fairly often, not sure if they still do. They don't sell you something and then forget you as do many manufacturers. You just reminded me that I have one of my accelerator springs broken (only the second in 2 years) and need to go to their site and order one. Bungee is starting to get a bit sloppy too, not bad, but will see if they can send me one of those too just in case. At least I know that they will take care of me in a very short time, and will continue that support as long as I own their product. This can't be said by any manufacturer in their price range that I know of. Keep up the good work, and thanks if you read this, TM. For price, quality, and most of all, support you are hard to beat. -- Regards, Ed Medlin www.flyairwest.com > Well one of my springs just broke in my TM2 and I registered on TM website > and ordered new springs..

Ed, I had a similar problem and ordered a bungee and a new steering pot for my T2. Not only did they send me these items, but they also sent me two new pulley/guides for the bungee. As it turned out, one of mine was badly broken. Adding the fresh bungee, pot, and replacing the pulley made my T2 feel brand new. Thrustmaster really does have great support. Dave Ewing

Ordered new pots and springs for my 3 year old T2 friday night remembering when I ordered a spring about a year ago it showed up on my doorstep 5 days later. I also read this original post a short time later. Realizing just how happy I have been with Thrustmaster products I decided what the hell I think it's time for a new wheel setup. Saturday morning I went down and bought a new Nascar Pro setup. When the T2 parts come in I will rebuild it and pass it on to my son. Service and support really do pay off. I never considered any product other than Thrustmaster. Joe
I've been trying to contact TM to order new springs for my Nascar Pro. The result... online it says the unit is not serviceable. (i've got it apart waiting). I sent support an e-mail and I've also faxed them a request... nothing.

You will need to setup a login and register your product and then you can order parts. Did you go to the following link <http://www.thrustmaster.com/support/cs/customer/login.cfm>? The NASCAR Pro is still serviceable and if need be you can get an RMA if the parts you need are not listed in the Order Parts section. -- **************************** Michael E.

I registered on-line and ordered parts at the TM web site. The parts came only days later (full marks to ThrustMaster). You can do this too.. =rez=
