Hi, what's wrong with setting it to automatic mode?

Nothing special here. The automatic mode simply loads the recommended Fanatec settings.

But if you want something more tailored to your driving style, you can always fine tune everything in the menu and make the setup truly your own.

Hello,when i drive my dd extreme there is a grinding noise in the wheelbase so what could that be?thx

Also when there are people beneath me on a floor lower they say: Where is that noise coming from,it is an earthquake???

I am not exactly sure what the issue might be. It could be that your base is not properly secured, leaving a small gap between the base and the mounting point.

At the same time, it might be related to your rig. It is difficult to say without taking a closer look.
