I have searched for a thread like this but without luck. However, version 2.00 has just been released so I thought it would be nice if we report our findings regarding bugs and glitches. I will start out with my findings and I hope we can make a difference by collecting a list of issues present in the game after the release of Spec 2.0.

GT5 bugs version 2.00

1:
The Peugeot 207 GTi '07 may have a problem with the power limiter. Adjusting from 100% to 99.9 % results in a PP decrease of 5 points. HP is obviously also affected by this decrease in power.

2:
Menu music doesn't start playing when returning to the Open Lobby after returning from an online room. However, music does start to play when going back to the GT Life screen.

3:
Cars do not collect dirt in seasonal time and drift trials. GT Auto car wash refuses to wash.

4:
Oil condition isn't affected by seasonal time and drift trials. GT Auto refuses to change oil.

5:
Used Car Dealership does not update after competing in seasonal time and drift trials.

6:
The Community Log does not record when winning a gold medal in seasonal time trials while it does for seasonal drift trials.

7:
Racing gear items obtained before version 1.10 do not merge into one icon with identical racing gear obtained from Seasonal Events. Same problem with racing gear added to the item list through DLC. This problem affects suits but I'm unsure about helmets.

On some settings on the setting sheet, the value shown is 1 point lower than the actual set value.
 
#5 has been like that since seasonals began.

Another to add: Paint chips acquired since Spec 2.0 don't get grouped with previous chips of the same color. It's the same way you mention suits and helmets.
 
when you hit "demo" - the description showing on the bottom scrolling has the "br/" instead of period?

edit. actually it only shows up on the n24 gtr

When I playd the Tascuba 9h I saved after 3h and 16min, today when I loaded the race my Corvette Z06RM go crazy instead for drive in pit the car drove to the finnish line to enter the pit there and as you can tell the car crash into the wall and after a crash with another car it drove round the track until I exit the game. I have read that more people have been exposed to it, especially on tascuba 9h...
 
My GT5 had lagged ever since the Spec 2 update. Loading times on screens are about 3 times longer, going through menus takes ages too, it's quite annoying. Plus, whenever this happens I'm scared it'll break my HDD so I just turn it off rather than risk doing it again.
 
#8 You get stuck in the barriers in SS7.
I was playing yesterday online with some friends and on the free run i stuck to the barrier, like it was made out of magnet.
Where the start point is but from the other side.
One of my friends came by to see what is going on, he pushed me out and he stuck too.
After that, we starter a race and i hit the red-white barrier before the 1st hairpin and i stuck again....yet again every one stopped and the closest to me turned back to ram me so i can unstack from the barrier...

The car doesnt get in to the barrier like the old money glitch, it just glues on the barrier.... full throttle forward or reverse, nothing, it just burns out.
I've tried X1, Enzo, SL 55, GT-R, R34, LFA all the cars act the same.
 
I don't know if it's a bug or intended (in which case it's just plain stupid) but in online when a class such as GT500 or Classic Muscle cars is selected, you can't restrict the cars in any way (PP, bhp, mass). It kind of ruins the idea because then the only options are to prohibit tuning from options or run with a fleet of fully tuned cars.
 
I joined a Spa-Francorchamps shuffle race room a few days ago, the race started as usual but after the countdown, we couldn't move anywhere. We all just stood there on the grid revving engines and honking horns. Eventually we all decided to reset our games as we couldn't even exit back to the room screen. :boggled:
 
I assume people have come across the Course Maker bug where if you choose your own car to do a test drive of a created course, it just sits there and will not go into gear.
 
Not that I'm complaining, but I'm doing about 1.5 hours per day on the LeMans 24 endurance race, and I suspect that each time I resume from a suspended race I get a fresh batch of oil in the car. There has been no appreciable performance drop after 9.5 hours of the event. I wonder if, upon completion, the mileage counter (both the car's and in my profile) will reflect the mileage done in the 24?
 
Anyone else having problems with the multiple setups? When I change from setup A to setup B my rims ghange and get unpainted. Also a wing appears and my hood decides to paint itself. And if I want to take the wing off, I have to go all the way to gt auto... Annoying.
 
More DLC than Spec 2, but since the DLC came effectively with Spec 2...

The GT-R TC cannot get its number changed. Clearly a bug since the others can get a number change...
 
I have a stage 1 turbo on my GT-32 TC and when I try uninstall it, it always comes back, no matter what I do. So I can't down tune it like I should be able to. No biggie, but still a bug. Also it says 0 wins in stats altho I won 2 seasonals with it, and yes I saved afterwards.
Love the car tho! :)
 
Loading the tracks "faster" sometimes takes forever, over 10 minutes, have to restart game if that happens.
Only have this since I bought and installed the dlc. :indiff:

Hit reset and it'll work. But yeah, annoying.

Normally, disconnecting from the internet makes the game work again. Before doing races ofline try disconnecting from the internet, it will load fast with no problems.

Already have a wing fitted, so don't have that problem but the same happens to my rims.
 
I wouldn't necessarily call some of these bugs or glitches. Perhaps it was meant to be that way?
 
I've got a weird bug.., today I was drifting on autumn ring mini online and I noticed my car sounded like I was on dirt rally racing. Has anyone else had this happen?

I can't get rid of the wing on the RX8 I just finished trying to tune. I go to GTAuto, remove the wing, it appears back in all three setups. At first it's not there, both visually and in the tuning settings. But switch settings from A to B for example, it reappears in B and also back in A. I tried removing it while set to all three settings but it still comes back, visually and in terms of downforce.
