Check the all cars, all settings and the public/private/tcp (and empty if you like) filters are on.

Can it be that your firewall is blocking LFS's UDP packets? Try turning it off and see...

Can you join a server by typing in a name in the join specific host? Eg. [AA] Demo GTI ?

Something, somewhere, is dropping/blocking UDP packets.
It's either a software firewall (Windows and/or third party - check both), hardware firewall/router, your ISP, or something broken in your LFS install. Check all of the above and make a clean install of LFS.
i also have lost the arm to the driver :S
Options > View > Draw driver / wheel > [driver ON wheel ON]
If that doesn't work, make a clean install of LFS

I have a similar problem, don't intend to hijack, but don't want to start a new thread, may be a similar issue.
I just went to play online (It's been a while), also, just built this PC recently, unlocked the game about two/three weeks ago, only unlock I've used in more than a year.
Anyways, after the update 0.5Z28, it wants me to unlock, yet it says my username cannot be found... I dunno what to do :(
EDIT: Fixed. For no reason after countless attempts it finally worked.... Maybe server was having issues.
