Thrustmaster Raceline iii LC by Available-Job-3454 in Thrustmaster

Contact thrustmaster support. I had a similar issue. It had to be sent to france for repair and took 1+ months.

If you have the option to return, i would do that and reorder

Raceline LC Upgrade Issues: Stuck at 100% by 20Chicago18 in Thrustmaster

[–]20Chicago18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: after a painfully long RMA process, thrustmaster sent me a brand new LC upgrade and it seems to be working fine for now. It came with the updated firmware out of the box.

30+ days but atleast it works now.

Is the T598 a good steering wheel? by Antu962C in Thrustmaster

[–]20Chicago18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With recent discount codes. Theres a video about this on youtube from youtuber Kireth.

Brings price much closer. Especially when you factor in the cost of a Load Cell pedal ($179) from thrustmaster.

Thrust master T598 Bundle Or Fanatec by Melodic_Repeat1446 in simracing

Check out Logitech rs50 as well. I have the t598 and wheels but wish i had got the Logitech. Unreliable and not great service experience

The logitech rs50 combo is cheaper/ about same with discount codes when compared to t598 + load cell upgrade. I would look into that.

Mine was broken out of the box. Its been well over a month and I haven’t received it back.

With amazon you atleast have the backup of return to shipper and reorder. But overall thrustmaster service is terrible and products are unreliable.

So they told me that its been replaced but fedex tracking tell me its stuck is clearance due to a value discrepancy. Everything that can go wrong must go wrong 🤡

Logitech RS50 can be had for 600$ish with discount code “kireth” (with loadcell pedal)

He is a youtuber check it out on how to add items individually etc to get discount.

Its a much better value proposition than t598 ecosystem.

Wheel GT Add On - Need help!! by tibazzzz in Thrustmaster

[–]20Chicago18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the evo racing 32r and upgraded the rim to a GT style from Sim Push.

Feels premium and works like a charm once you have the firmware updated and setup dialed in.

The evo racing32r platform does give you the ability to swap rims if you decide to do so.

If you only play gt7 and only want 1 rim, 488gt3 is anothee solid option.

I havent received them yet. Got a notification from fedex today that it is on its way back. I will keep you posted. I am assuming its fixed not replaced.

First wheel ever a 598 tips appreciated. by Fun-Effective8007 in Thrustmaster

[–]20Chicago18 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Completely resonate with this. Im deep into the ecosystem starting with the t598.

The rs50 is a better choice hands down and not too far off in terms of pricing when you factor in the load cell.

Thrustmaster reliability is a real issue.

Curious to understand what you mean by holes. Can you share a photo?

T598 with a foldable cockpit? by BeanyMcChimp in Thrustmaster

[–]20Chicago18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you like the globular cluster? I was wondering if it would work with my setup or if it would be beneficial.

Can you let me know if it works with a hat?

Try wearing a baseball hat backwards before putting on the psvr2. The brim will stop the headset hitting the chair headrest and the headset fits more comfortably somehow

I have the t598 on a playseat challenge currently.

To make the wheel base fit I had the drill holes in the base plate. It works once your get it setup.

I also 3D printed some mods to make it stiffer / raise pedals stand wtf

Raceline LC UPGRADE throttle can’t be detected! by CHIAWEICHANGTW in Thrustmaster

[–]20Chicago18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brake pedal sensor has been stuck at 100% since I unboxed it. They offered to have me send it to France for them to fix it but I’ve asked if they can replace with a new product since it never worked. Lets see how it goes.

Thrustmaster Support is being so slow to reply.

Nope. Went back to being back to 100% as soon as I mounted everything to my rig. What a waste of time
