Hello everyone. About a year ago I replaced the spur gear in my Typhon 3S with the steel 57t version, because the stock spur gear got destroyed. I took the Typhon out a couple of days ago and I started to hear a bad grinding noise. Took the car home, disassembled the power module and found the pinion, which I'm pretty sure is stock, to be completely chewed up in the middle.
Now, I'm pretty sure I have the power module where you can't adjust the spur gear/pinion mesh, so what did I do wrong? The steel spur gear looks comes completely undamaged. Was I supposed to install the steel pinion gear also? Now, Im not 100% certain if i installed the steel pinion or not, so if this pinion is in fact the steel one, what went wrong? Also, someone suggested that I shouldve put grease on the spur and pinion, but I also remember someone telling me to NOT put grease or any lube on those gears. Thanks in advance; hope everyone had a good Christmas...
