Is it normal to have a very slight grinding feel to the V3 brake pedal? Should it feel completely smooth? They are brand new with the brake mod installed. Thanks.
Tried that, I think it’s the plastic piece inside the housing that the red tube screws into. There’s a white cap that moves up and down and it seems to have a little friction. It doesn't make it hard to brake but you just feel a faint grainy feel when the Piston moves in and out when braking
I'm having similar symptom with my V3 brake after taking it apart then lubricating. Did your problem eventually go away?
I tried Lithium grease that was provided by Fanatec... didn't really help. Then I tried it with vaseline on stocked elastomers it helps little but does not remove grainy feel toward 70-100%.
I should have left it alone and not greased it, it wasn't like this when I received it last week. :-(

Remove the elastomer's, clean the metal tube, re-grease and reassemble. It should be smooth.
