Information to the field

As a result of company’s continuous product monitoring, Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. has found that, in some vehicles, a change in the production procedure has caused a reduced tightening torque at the bolts in the rear differential drive shafts. This could cause noise while driving.

In case you have an involved vehicle in the workshop Lamborghini recommends to perform this rework action for the rear shafts.

To avoid future customer complaint each dealer has to contact his customers to perform the service campaign.

This rework action must be also performed on all cars in your stock immediately.
