    Hey gang, question for Cali T owners:
    I have 2015 T, which I love, bought with 5K miles now has 11 K. The car has been more or less flawless. Usually in the past I traded cars around that mileage but this one I wanna keep for another year, plus. I might actually, unless I trade it out, try to put 25k miles on it. Anyone done that? Any engine/car issues?
    Also- says service due in 70 days or 10k miles. No way I’ll have 10k miles by time service due. Still bring it in?

    Take it in as oil/brake fluid absorb moisture no matter how few miles you drive.

    Not a T, but an '11 NA Cali. 33K miles and annoying issues disappeared once I upgraded the OEM battery tender and replaced the original battery. I had some work done to the headers (carbon build up) this past year. That's all I can remember. Your T is a beauty. If it is still fun to drive, keep it and keep driving it...T

    2015 Cali T, bought it in 2018 with 9800 miles, currently 27,068 miles, not a single hiccup except for a tiny broken piece of plastic that just disabled a paddle temporarily but I was able to fix on my own. The more you drive it the happier it is. It came with a two year Power warranty which I never used. The third year I crossed my fingers and didn't bother to renew it and had zero issues. Drove it all day today. Love it. Best thing I did for the car was put the HS exhaust on it and it sounds great. Put a new battery in it the first year but that's SOP on any Ferrari. Keep it on a tender and if it's not raining (or snowing) it's driving.
