Porsche 918 RSR Wheel Constantly Double Shifting

Hi,
Just bought a brand new Porsche 918 RSR Wheel, been using it for 14 days with the CSL Elite Base on PS4 and it is almost impossible to do a clean race with it. It is constantly double shifting up or down. I payed for it 435€, shipping costs included. Has anyone had this issue too? It seems that the Maclaren GT3 wheel had this problem also.
I contacted Fanatec and they opened up an RMA for repair. I just don't think it is fair to repair a wheel with just 14 days of use. Shouldn't I be refunded or replaced by a brand new one?
Best regards,
Paulo Rodrigues

That is good to know, thanks Gagaryn! Cheers m8!
I had the same problem on the same wheel but it was just on the down shift side, it would skip a gear, go from 3rd to 1st or 4th to 2nd. Fanatec finally agreed after going through a lot to prove it, had to send them several videos of this happening and they then agreed to RMA it or send me new shifting modules. I choose the shifting modules as I felt I could get it done quicker than sending the wheel back. Turned out to be the wrong decision. They didn't send any info on how to do it, no exploded view or directions and it turned out to be a real nightmare and I don't think I'll ever be able to get it back together.
