awdrgyjo Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Last year I bought some Saitek pro combat peddles, today I visited a friend, who has just purchased the same model, and i realise mine all along have been duff. my friends model is very smooth and quiet, mine make an almost rasping noise,and i can feel a slight grating, and even on the least tension, do not return to the central position,I did not realise when i bought them because I had nothing to compare them with, has anyone experienced this problem, and, or knows what the solution is, its to late to send them back, thanks in advance.
Griffin Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 There's propably dirt inside and lubrication is gone from the sliding surfaces. You should open them once in a while and use some silicone spray or some other lubricant compatible with plastics.
PeterP Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 i can feel a slight gratingI would also say that dirt/dust/whatever is your problem. Every moving parts need some maintenance from time to time . Clean the interior with alcohol and use silicone grease. Use no motor oil or similar - it can be to aggressive for the plastic. Use this as a disassembly instruction: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=73311
