Nico, I had a similar problem with a car , not a Ferrari . It was a grounding cable that was loose. The bolt that threaded into the frame was stripped and the bolt would not tighten up all the way. Sounds so familiar to what’s happening to your car. Once it starts moving around the ground gets loose and everything starts going crazy. Fixed the bolt tightened the cable and all my issues went away . It’s worth a shot if they have done this already! Love your posts and your passion for cars and watches

Automotive engineer here, this is a earth problem and will be a living nightmare to find, and Ferrari will have no interest in finding it, get a local car electrician and they will find it as it's probably something really silly. Will just take time.
@@littlepippin8445 Heat or humidity. But yep, its almost certainly a bad ground or corrosion issue imo. Or a wiring harness/connector with poor contact etc
@ebbs0000 Your last sentence is the reason why Ferrari isn’t eager to fix the problem. Unless the owner is willing to foot the bill,they won’t do it. It took a master technician A total of 30 hours over 1 week to track down a weird intermittent issue that would make my Audi RS5 go into limp mode and throw a ton of codes. The only way to resolve the issue was to disconnect the battery for a few minutes and everything would be fine. Eventually, the issue was a bad ECM connector pin that disconnected when the car went over a bump or pothole but sparingly enough that I couldn’t correlate it. Fortunately it was fixable and no ECM replacement was necessary.
That car is showing all the symptoms of a bad ground. Easiest way to work around it, is to send a cable from the engine to a good known ground and also do this with the ECU.
bruv trust me as ex ferrari mechanic, them newer cars build quality is crap. But you could be very right as that has been the case on many cars. And dont get me started on paint defects, i once saw a customer who had to get he's 488pista repainted 5times before it was actualy to standard. And ive seen the prices of the parts, these cars are so overvalued its insane they still have a semi decent reputation. I tell everyone buy a lambo and if you do get a ferrari get a old one.
Looks like it. I think they even changed the ECU at some point. Guaranteed they have some ground wire somewhere on a bolt to the frame and the bolt is loose.
you keep pushing despite with tons of electrical issue on the car, trying to stay positive to make it towards the finish line, cherish every moment being this is your first gumball and dream that come true. in my opinion, you deserve the spirit of gumball award Nico.
At this point no one would be touching my car any further. I would conduct a third party mechanical investigation with the industry leaders in consumer protection. Bring the OEM parts with (uninstalled) and let them figure it out.

This whole thing seems quite stupid, high-end sportscars driving behind police cars or sitting in traffic most of the time. Wasn't G3000 earlier more free spirited thing, it's now just so planned and scripted...
@@pffyespffYes, Gumball 3000 isn’t the rally it once was. In the 2000s participants would race to get to the checkpoints and finish line first. Going over the speed limit with no police escort. They would party every night after arriving at their next destination. Now it seems everything is scripted and pre-planned. It’s just a rally for people with money now. No shenanigans anymore as they used to happen. Gumball 3000 2006 was Gumball at its peak. If you have the chance to watch Bam Margera’s ‘3000 Miles’ movie about Gumball 3000 you should.

Nico its not that Ferrari doesnt want to fix it , they dont know how , they are glofified parts changers , not good at trouble shooting and just keeping the car running right . its across the board these days , Harley Davidson is in the same boat , exact same thing just ask million dollar bogan.
Don't know if your country has it but in usa we have a lemon law if the dealership tries to fix it 3 times and fails they have to buy the car back hope u read this Nico and look into it
Even if it exists in his country, he’s said he is never selling that car no matter what, but every bit of info is appreciated in a situation like this one
In the UK, we have the Block Exemptions Register, but that doesn't apply to Nico because his new exhaust violated fuel emission and noise pollution laws. He has more than likely already sought legal advice and I'm confident any lawyer would have stated the above, hence why he's posting this online. If anything, Ferrari are well in their rights to sue Nico for defamation. But then again, I'm sure his lawyer(s) have already made him aware of this. Say, for instance, Ferrari states you can only use Ferrari Spark Plugs. The Exemptions Register is there to protect consumers from such examples.
As a Cambodian, I am very happy and proud to see you admiring Cambodia, our country is a small, but we have a big heart, a heart of sharing, a heart of love. Thank for coming, Enjoy your Stay.Love💗 You can visit Cambodia whenever you are free, we will welcome you 😊 MR Nico
He problem you facing is probably because of a loose ground to 1 of the ecu's or body control modules. It might just be that one of those modules weren't tightened down properly. The module housing itself might be the ground. I say take it to an independent mechanic,and asked them to check all the grounds. Also maybe add grounding wires to the car. In the 360 the module housing was the ground and had to be bolted down to get ground. So this is just my opinion
Thought similarly. That's an electric issue. Grounding, connectors, something like that. Terribly hard to find, but exchanging the ECU and stuff won't change anything
Bad earth, please check the negitive battery terminal they have an isolator switch on them, and it looks like a grey lever that fail and cause everything to go haywire!!!!!
Mike over @ DDE just had near the same issue one of the cars during a build, a fuse box panel wasnt bolted down tight enough and that was the grounding.
I'm glad in the US we have what's called the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act, and Lemon Law...... they would have to prove that the modification you made caused the issues we all know an exhaust is not causing this kind of electrical issues. These companies need to stand behind their products.
That end part with the Cambodian Hells Angels acting as Outriders - like modern-day cavalry - flagging cars down to get out of the way... ...that was the sickest shit I've seen. Holy cow, what an experience!
Just wanna say the way you switched your mindset from the last video, shows how much control you have over your emotions. Well done Nico, You deserve everything you have👏👏👏
Glad to see you less stressed. Make sure you don’t forget to look out the window and see those amazing countries and people as much as the issue can be all consuming! Wishing you all safe travels.
From past Ferrarti problems it is a sensor or some electronics buried inside of the transmission or differential. This is a common occurrence won’t be fixed until Ferrarti acknowledges it and attempts to solve it.
Electrical gremlins are the worst. Most likely a bad ground. It will suck to go through the wiring diagram(if you can even get one) figure out all the grounds and make sure you have continuity between all of them. Either that or some cam-bus wire, modules stop seeing each other and the car freaks out...
I am an Technician, I am NOT a Ferrari Tech, but from what I have seen in your videos the Issue seems to be electrical but not necessarily a computer fault, It could be a loose connection, some pinched wires, or loose pins in an electrical connector, it is also possible a short in one of the data communication wires causing multiple computers to quite working, Just my observations as I am in no way familiar with how Ferrari does communication between modules, When you get the car back home, You could try to find a 3rd party shop that is not a dealership that works on Exotic cars they might have better luck finding the cause of the fault
Nico Leonard Uncut Great Video I'm glad your second day on Gumball SE Asia went well and I definitely agree that Ferrari should take care of Absolutely Gorgeous 812 GTS and Give you a loaner and I'm glad you don't want to get rid of it
Dude I feel one and the same as you. One minute your whole world is coming down so angry then slowly figure out how to keep pushing. Find fun in pain and never stop your a true man.
If you're feeling depressed try wearing 2 pairs of wool socks to bed for much better sleep quality🟣you wont sweat or be that hot cuz its wool not cotton🔵⬛
Is the battery moving at all? My car had similar issues and it was due to the battery shifting and the module on top of the battery losing connection every once in a while.
Nico! Great advice that you gave that young lad asking what watch to get for $200.... best advice, if you can buy it 3-5 times you can afford it and if you like it get it. Dont waste your hard earned money if you struggle to pay it up front but most importantly if you love it and can afford it, like nike says "just do it!"
Nico - I’d love to know if the 12V battery has been replaced or not. Underpowered 12V batteries often cause Christmas tree dashboards. Maybe Ferrari only tried ONE brand of battery, that they say to use. Find a third party garage and buy the best 12V battery you can find, see if it helps. It’s worth a shot for a couple hundred quid. 😊
@@andrewpoole6854 You Have missed the point. The vehicle warranty isn't the issue, The work done and paid for didn't fix it so that needs to be warrantied under a different banner! As a workshop I understand this maybe slightly better than you!
Right? Especially if you're getting significant faults while the car is bone stock - leave it be! Let Ferrari take ownership of the faults, have them make the repairs, then install all the aftermarket crap you want! This entire situation was avoidable, but then he wouldn't have the content he has now, so...
I wonder how many Ferrari owners have had similar issues typed it on a forum/complained just to be ghosted. Nico on the other hand, has a platform, with a community... what are they going to, shadow ban him from Ferrari? That will just fuel the disappointment and disgust. They will shadow ban him if he actually goes through legally anyways.
I just commented on one of Mr JWW’s Gumball vids that Ferrari needs to provide a new car or a full refund. The issues you’ve had with that 812 are nuts.
So glad the Ferrari is making it so far! Hope you can enjoy your trip even with all the issues! I agree with others I think its a lose ground/poor ground connection somewhere. It would cause symptoms similar to a lose battery terminal.
Gumball is actually a wonderful rally & experience... I've done gumball 4 times (3 in the states, 1 in Europe to Japan). And it was 1 of the best experiences of my life... nothing really vulgar about it
Casually throwing around chunks of money that I can’t even get from the bank as a small percentage of available equity at a high interest rate, while betting our house that the biz will work. Especially when they pay with an auction the top 10 starting cars leaving gumball. Top one was more than double what i need to restart and produce a company. Oh well.
I really enjoy watching your content! You should always use your seat belt Nico! Even when you only drive a little bit. Even when you only drive in like 50 km/h it will save you a lot of pain and scars. I know that from personal experience. Keep up the good work!!!
So here’s the interesting things, you got different alarms but your car still functions like no transmission issues etc. Someone mentioned a grounding issue, if you know which ecu controls the items you get alarms for, check if you get proper power and grounding to that control system. It seems something is loose or bad connection if everything corrects itself randomly.
This is such a movie experience and the ending rushing the watch to the end with the bikers and cop moving people over is an insane experience I bet lol!❤️
I was so sad for you yesterday and so happy that the car is working more or less today. It's the strength of winners to see the positive in difficult moments! 💪🏻👍🏻
This seems to be a ground issue. Probably internally in an ecu or something . Maybe a shake / vibration will trigger it .. try going thru a rough path or something and see if that will trigger it . Maybe a little shake up may trigger it to help narrow down the issue .
Whatever the consumer protection is in Northern Ireland you need to contact them and contact the European equivalent to the Better Business Bureau and make a complaint against Ferrari. A modified exhaust does not do to a car what your car is doing, a new exhaust does not create electric problems like you’re having and you should definitely sue or bully Ferrari into taking the car back and installing a completely new wiring harness on their dime
Three main areas to look at in your car, grounds, powers, and communication within the systems that are failing, but it never hurts to check the grounds within the chassis of those systems
By any chance, did you check and see if your fuse was blown for the traction control and antilock brakes? Also, I think when the battery is disconnected in those cars, it turns certain things off that need to be switched back on. It’s a safety mechanism, I think. You may also want to check out your battery, when you have a bad battery in those kinds of cars, it will shut off certain things like the traction control to save on battery power. You will get all kinds of warnings on your dash, and usually your traction control, antilock, brakes, cruise control, and, something else but I forgot usually doesn’t work. I would say check your alternator, but it seems to be working because you’re driving the car a lot and the battery isn’t dying completely. Since that is the case, you may want to check if the battery is bad. Going over the sea, you might have gotten some humidity and salt water in your battery. I say change your battery and find out if it still is bad. Just take the battery out of one of the other guys cars for a quick minute to test. If your traction control and other things come back on, you know it’s the battery.
I felt your pain when you was first dealing with the Ferrari but happy to see you’re making the most of it. Let the Ferrari catch fire if that’s what it wants to do, just stay safe brother

Both are great though
Nico I'm so glad you are able to push ahead and be driving in the gumball, what an amazing experience...keep on pushing....
Biggest lesson here is don’t make any non factory modifications until the warranty is over.
That doesn't matter considering the fault was documented months before the exhaust was fitted.
@@Leistung.Autohaus it matters to Ferrari warranty claims though.
@@andrewpoole6854Nico already forked out plenty of money to get the issue fixed because of the lack of warranty.. the car is still fucked
@@andrewpoole6854 You Have missed the point. The vehicle warranty isn't the issue, The work done and paid for didn't fix it so that needs to be warrantied under a different banner! As a workshop I understand this maybe slightly better than you!
Right? Especially if you're getting significant faults while the car is bone stock - leave it be! Let Ferrari take ownership of the faults, have them make the repairs, then install all the aftermarket crap you want! This entire situation was avoidable, but then he wouldn't have the content he has now, so...
I am so happy you made it, and I hope you can finish this trip with your car. Be safe and enjoy this unique experience! Thanks for sharing the story.
Was that Patrice Evra at 1:09 ??!!
Yeah it was
I wonder how many Ferrari owners have had similar issues typed it on a forum/complained just to be ghosted. Nico on the other hand, has a platform, with a community... what are they going to, shadow ban him from Ferrari? That will just fuel the disappointment and disgust. They will shadow ban him if he actually goes through legally anyways.
21:02 damn that was def a little close lmao
So awesome to see the amount of fans that where there waiting for you chanting for you.
I did not expect to see Patrice Evra 60 seconds into a Nico Vid! GGMU!!
it was him wasnt it!?!? i thought i was tripping
Was thinking about purchasing a Ferrari but after watching this might just go see Lambo.
That’s it, I’m cancelling my daydream Ferrari build!
Tommy Teeth really is the great equaliser amongst all of the chaos. Perfect copilot.
That water lady was fit as fuck 😂
Time stamp please 🙏
@@lewiscannon82135:42
No lies were told in this comment!
Here i thought i was the only one that saw that... 😮
So awesome that you are still pushing through and the 812 is at least driving. Make memories.
5:40 lmao that "f*ck me" was personal
What was the best part of the video was you explaining the $200 watch question. You have a beautiful heart Niko.
Wait WTH DID I JUST SEE PATRICE EVRA 🤣🤣😭 how random 1:09
Yes he's a participant this year. Max mentioned him during his speech in the DDE video today
Really glad that you are moving forward Nico 👍 the last video was not great and will definitely be remembered by everyone
The Gumball days of wild characters and big celebrities seem to be long in the past… Replaced by RUclipsrs.
Content creators. I think the location might be an issue this time around.
I mean you talking like youtubers are selected celebrities still can do it doesn't stop them from joining
@@homroyforever6054 Have you seen the DVD’s from the mid 2000’s? Totally different vibe!
So glad that ur car is running, can’t wait to see u in Malaysia.
At this point, get it to a Lamborghini dealer, get it fixed and put some Lamborghini logo's on it. That will wake them up in Maranello!
I just commented on one of Mr JWW’s Gumball vids that Ferrari needs to provide a new car or a full refund. The issues you’ve had with that 812 are nuts.
I remember that vlog when you messed up your Ferrari 😅😅😅
So glad the Ferrari is making it so far! Hope you can enjoy your trip even with all the issues! I agree with others I think its a lose ground/poor ground connection somewhere. It would cause symptoms similar to a lose battery terminal.
Gumball has always struck me as nothing more than a vulgar show of playboy excess.
Gumball is actually a wonderful rally & experience... I've done gumball 4 times (3 in the states, 1 in Europe to Japan). And it was 1 of the best experiences of my life... nothing really vulgar about it
Yet here you are on this channel 😂
Green eyes
Casually throwing around chunks of money that I can’t even get from the bank as a small percentage of available equity at a high interest rate, while betting our house that the biz will work. Especially when they pay with an auction the top 10 starting cars leaving gumball. Top one was more than double what i need to restart and produce a company. Oh well.
Remember at the core of the Gumball Foundation is raising money and giving to charities.
I really enjoy watching your content! You should always use your seat belt Nico! Even when you only drive a little bit. Even when you only drive in like 50 km/h it will save you a lot of pain and scars. I know that from personal experience. Keep up the good work!!!
Like for every "unbelievable" 😂
So pleased to see you enjoying yourself now. Also get Paddy Evra on the blog please. Guys a legend
Lemon laws
not every person lives in america.
Well, they should not be able to sell lemons. $500,000 of nothing but a lemon
So here’s the interesting things, you got different alarms but your car still functions like no transmission issues etc. Someone mentioned a grounding issue, if you know which ecu controls the items you get alarms for, check if you get proper power and grounding to that control system. It seems something is loose or bad connection if everything corrects itself randomly.
At least a few guys watching this who could afford and wanted to buy a 812 now won’t bother. Sort it Ferrari
Serious respect to Niko for having morals & giving warnings about gambling. He could easily just take the money & not do that.
This is such a movie experience and the ending rushing the watch to the end with the bikers and cop moving people over is an insane experience I bet lol!❤️
I was so sad for you yesterday and so happy that the car is working more or less today.
It's the strength of winners to see the positive in difficult moments! 💪🏻👍🏻
This seems to be a ground issue. Probably internally in an ecu or something . Maybe a shake / vibration will trigger it .. try going thru a rough path or something and see if that will trigger it . Maybe a little shake up may trigger it to help narrow down the issue .
I think it would be so cool to spend a day with Nico. Seems like such a chill guy. Nico keep it up and keep the videos coming
Whatever the consumer protection is in Northern Ireland you need to contact them and contact the European equivalent to the Better Business Bureau and make a complaint against Ferrari. A modified exhaust does not do to a car what your car is doing, a new exhaust does not create electric problems like you’re having and you should definitely sue or bully Ferrari into taking the car back and installing a completely new wiring harness on their dime
So happy for you now that you are actually able to enjoy yourself and the Gumball 3000!
Three main areas to look at in your car, grounds, powers, and communication within the systems that are failing, but it never hurts to check the grounds within the chassis of those systems
I love the POV of DDE, MR JWW and NICO on this trip, I feel like I am jumping from car to car.
By any chance, did you check and see if your fuse was blown for the traction control and antilock brakes? Also, I think when the battery is disconnected in those cars, it turns certain things off that need to be switched back on. It’s a safety mechanism, I think. You may also want to check out your battery, when you have a bad battery in those kinds of cars, it will shut off certain things like the traction control to save on battery power. You will get all kinds of warnings on your dash, and usually your traction control, antilock, brakes, cruise control, and, something else but I forgot usually doesn’t work. I would say check your alternator, but it seems to be working because you’re driving the car a lot and the battery isn’t dying completely. Since that is the case, you may want to check if the battery is bad. Going over the sea, you might have gotten some humidity and salt water in your battery. I say change your battery and find out if it still is bad. Just take the battery out of one of the other guys cars for a quick minute to test. If your traction control and other things come back on, you know it’s the battery.
I felt your pain when you was first dealing with the Ferrari but happy to see you’re making the most of it. Let the Ferrari catch fire if that’s what it wants to do, just stay safe brother
poeple shouting F hublot in Cambodia is one of the funniest shite i have ever seen 🤣🤣🤣 good luck on the rest of the rally Nico, Godspeed!
Nicco, so happy that you are still driving in the Gumball rally! I was so sad for you when you didn't think you would even make it past the start.
I must say you are head of everyone when it comes to showing Gumball 😅😅
Good job!
I'm so happy your having a good time now and the car is atleast performing for you so you can drive in gumball. Stay safe
Glad to see you are finally smiling and enjoying your rally! It was heartbreaking seeing the car cause you so many issues still.
I'm relieved that you're somewhat limping this car through this rally. Sending positive vibes and wishing you all the best.
