Hanbrake V2 Lever Bolt broken

Serge NICOLAS · December 24

Hi everyone and Merry Xmas

I recently bought the new Fanatec V2 handbrake

unfortunately, during assembly I overtightened the lever bolt and the M6 screw broke clean off inside the nut... I naturally contacted Fanatec after-sales service to order one, but no response for 1 week... After searching on the net, it seems very difficult to find this specific nut+screw set

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance and happy holidays to all!

M6x10x25mm (5pcs)

Then just proper M6x10 bolts to both ends, maby some helix glue also.

Better than original.

It happened to me as well and I have experience with working on cars and bikes and was well below the recommended 10Nm torque. If you search on-line you will see that there are many others having the same issue. I think it is a design oversight. The seat for the allen key is too deep and leaves very little metal to hold one of the bolt together. I submitted a ticket too but received no response so far, disappointing. You can easily fix it by using a flat head machine screw (metric) and a washer. I can post some pictures later.
