Anyone did the upgrade from T598 to T818 Black Edition? Is it worth the upgrade?

I already have rhe R32 Evo and 488GT3 wheelrim, simsonn pedals and SHH hubb shifter

I bought a new T598 in January, serial number is later than the ones on the website that are supposed to have issues. it’s been working perfectly fine for me for the 5 months I’ve had it so far, but the last week or so the force feedback has felt a bit clunky as if it’s getting stuck. this only happens for a tenth of a second or so every now or again, but it’s noticeable and I believe is the cause for it disconnecting randomly a couple times yesterday

I mostly play GT7 on it so am wondering if the loss of grip vibration feature it has is maybe something to do with it

Basically, the 3 pin power supply cable appears to have a darker pin in the middle, I’m no expert on burnt out cables, but I thought that it seemed unusual. Is there a way to get a free replacement through thrustmaster support seen as it appears to be a hardware issue, or would I have to spend £40 on a replacement power supply ser

Hi guys,

I run a t818 with sf1000 and tlcm pedals. I have a decent PC 5060ti Quest 3 Virtual desktop through the quest I also have a asus rtbe92u router with designated channel for the wireless to quest 3.

However, I play with mates on multiplayer f125 and towards the end of a long session 25-30 laps, there was many lag from the t818 and graphics, making it unplayable. I then tried a full 63 laps of Imola (solo), was all going well until lap 52 and started lagging again to unplayable.

I turned off for 10mins

I lowered my PC from high performance to balanced and did another 22 laps which were fine and then 16 lap race and it was fine.

I just ordered a 3.1 belkin usb to try that out. I also have 3 computer fans that I wired up that sit just outside the units vents. But it still happened. I have seen a little online about thermal throttling but not many have put up much info about it.

Would appreciate any advice and will try the new usb on Friday afternoon in 2 days from now. I don't particularly want to lower the ffb too much as thats the reason I bought the unit, September 2025.

Any info would be much appreciated, thank you. JIMMY

Im thinking about buying a used th8a, because of the h-pattern and sequencial shifter mode, but I don't have a clutch pedal, is it worth it still?

Hi guys. Recently purchased the T598 for Xbox series x. One of the main features (gear jolt) isn’t available on the menu. I have update the wheelbase base to the latest firmware but still haven’t got the option to? Has anyone encountered this issue and if so please please please help. Thank you.

I'll like to know if my TMX is broken.... On Truck Simulator, I have no issues whatsoever, on every other racing game, nothing.

Whenever am Forza, though, I just can't seem to get any control of the car. The slightest turns send the car into a spin, and there are times when I just lose complete control of the car for no apparent reason.

I'll be speeding and then am turning the wheel slightly and it just feels either hyper responsive or no response at all.

When I open up truck simulator I can do 360s on the highways no problen.

Played NFS Heat, Racing no problem, drifting no problem.

Open Forza, I struggle to get any sense of control can't even drive the car straight sometimes.

Like I get it if am not breaking properly or entering turns but I'll be trying to just change lanes and spin out of control.

Can anyone provide any tips or help maybe it's my settings that are wrong?

I did the calibration using the panel and it's okay. I have the wheel set to 900 degree.

Hi everyone, I'm using t598 with ps5, so I can only use thrustmaster shifter and handbrake, now I'm having a th8a on my left and two tssh on my right, always want a shifter with easy switch from h pattern mode to Sequential mode to replace one of my tssh, is there any chance or news that they release a similar product?

Besides, Logitech, fanatec and moza all have xbox licensed steering wheel, Thrustmaster's Xbox license remains on the base, i really hope we can get a xbox license on steering wheel one day.

Shaft Extension, 10nm base for console,The Complete Form of Harmony, FFB Protocol like tureforce(T-DFB seems to be the first to do this?)

I can still remember how excited I was when I saw that "DRIVE INTO THE NEW ERA" page in 2024, The recent firmware update for the T598 is good , but i think we need more products and ecosystems....

As the title states ordered the Lc upgrade on the 5th of April to add to the Raceline iii pedals i purchased in december 2025, seeing people on here and facebook showing of their pedal ( very jealous by the way ) but im still waiting for mine to appear, has anyone heard any news of when this will be restocked. Thinking of cancelling order and going for something else.

I am broke af my dream wheel is t300 rs but I dont have the money for that stuff.

I play nr2003 acc and est2 and I am planning on picking up ac when its on sale.

what do you think is more worth it?My friend has t128 but he says that the wheel is shit.So is the t128 better?I know t150 pro has much better pedals and in terms of looks appeals to me personally more since the t128 looks kinda fat.
Thx for the replies!1!1!1!1!1!1!1!
