Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.18 Released To Fix Engine Swap Exploit

July 6, 2022 By Dan Thornton Leave a Comment

A glitch allowing you to get an infinite supply of high powered motors has been removed with Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.18 released. And there are a wide range of other issues and improvements, including a problem with gear ratio settings changing every time you opened them, steering angles not always working properly on some cars if you’re using a Logitech G923, and save data sometimes not loading properly.

The main fix is for the engine swap exploit. Since the Gran Turismo 7 update 1.17 added new cars and Watkins Glen in June, it’s been possible to quit out of the game after unlocking an engine via the Roulette Ticket system. If you did this after the relevant history lesson began, and then went back, the gifting process would start again. Meaning you could unlock an infinite supply of these high power engines which could then be fitted to specific road cars.
