not happy jan

can you imagine spending $600,000 and receiving this notice

this was on the lambo website :evil:

Murcielago Recall / Campaign information

Campaign number 02 v 082 - April 2002

Date: 3/29/02

Vehicle: 2002 Lamborghini Murcielago - Steering Shaft Coupling Clearance

-----------------------------------------

Automobili Lamborghini S.P.A. has determined that a defect which relates to motor vehicle safety exists in early production 2002 Murcielago models.

The lower steering column shaft coupling could seperate from the input shaft of the lower steering rack assembly becasue the steering coupler was not properly inserted onto the steering rack input shaft. This could cause the driver to lose the ability to control the vehicle resulting in a crash and possible occupant injury.

DO NOT DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE UNTIL YOUR AUTHORIZED DEALER HAS DONE THE INSPECTION.

DO NOT DRIVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THIS CAMPAIGN DONE, HAVE IT TOWED FOR SAFETY.

Vehicles affected

Lamborghini Murcielago, model year 2002

VIN: ZA9BC10U72LA12049 to ZA9BC10U92LA12104

ryan, the murcielago replaces the diablo

if you are keen on bulls and looking for info on all the lambos ever built

try, www.lambocars.com www.lamborghinilist.com or www.lamborghiniregistry.com

lambo cars has the best information and roman updates the site very regularly

did you know there was a TT version of the diablo of which only six were ever built for american distribution only but there was a seventh built by al bertoni

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
