All Known Issues

Supercharger Bearing Noise (V8)

SeriousEngine

The Eaton TVS2300 supercharger on V8 models develops bearing wear in the front nose cone assembly from high-RPM operation and heat cycling. A distinctive whine worsens progressively and can eventually lead to rotor contact if bearings fail completely, requiring a full supercharger rebuild.

Est. Repair Cost: £1,500–£5,000

Seized Active Exhaust Valves

ModerateExhaust & Emissions

The valves in the exhaust system that create the signature "pop and crackle" can seize in the open or closed position.

Est. Repair Cost: £400–£1,000

Rear Differential Oil Seal Leak

ModerateGearbox & Transmission

The rear differential develops oil leaks from failed pinion seals, which can lead to wear of the diff pinion due to insufficient lubrication. If left untreated for too long, a whining noise develops and a full differential replacement may be required.

Est. Repair Cost: £200–£3,000
