check your DV to see if any seals are busted on it. My Forge had busted seals that were causing leaking. If not. . .

Make sure you have the latest chip, you might not have X+

Forge released a statement saying that the DV is not designed to run in reverse. They said it shortens the life of the DV.


just my :2cents:
