As it's 5 years old I can't see any warranty being of use so it's time to get another frustratingly.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

anyone heard of a carbon fibre gear knob shattering/cracking before? All very weird and going to cost £350 to replace :evil:

POST 2Original post

I assume it's just the top gel coat that's cracked? If it's the CF itself, there's been a problem with the layup or autoclave process which should be classed as a manufacturing fault.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

That's correct, the carbon sheet itself is ok, the resin has cracked. As it's 5 years old I can't see any warranty being of use so it's time to get another frustratingly. Better things to spend the money on!
