My first "check engine light" and the story before it...

Two things I'd love to hear more about.
1-The Flux capacitor, was there a Mister Fusion as well?
2-The Aventador drive

Hope your car gets fixed soon.

 

I think your Ferrari was upset you were 'flirting' with a potential mistress.
Seriously - probably a simple coincidence. At least dealer was able to check it out.
Best wishes.

 

Didn't you know Lambo dealerships are like Kryptonite to Ferraris... hehe.. I hope it's a simple problem. Cheers~ !

 

Absolutely this is the case. It's no different then if you were spending time with another gal, then came home, and your wife could smell her perfume on you ---- you're gonna get a "reprisal"

Your 458 "smelled" that Lambo stench on you, and she "smacked" 'ya

 

Incidentally, what was happening with your car (458) while you were driving the Aventador? Did anyone at Fox drive it, or move it, or anything? Any chance that something could have happened to it while you were out joy riding with the slut (aka, the Lambo ) ?

 

LOL

And, I was being facetious, of course! I know all the guys at Fox quite well --- they take care of my Esprit for me. No one there would ever do anything bad to your (or anyone else's) car.

 

It was the Ferrari gods smiting you for your betrayal. Joke

Aventador must of been awesome, hope your car gets fixed, maybe a coincidence, don't think anyone would of done it on purpose.

Unless you had to take it to that exact dealer to pay for it to get fixed, which is unlikely since it's Lambo.

 

This is the kind of little nagging problem that drives me crazy with Ferrari - have had similar sensors, etc. go bad with F cars, never an electronic glitch in any of my Porsche's or Toyota's. Guess it's the Italian thing.

 

No Mclaren as well,small volume production,hope all is well with your car

 

No quite Andy, not quite.

Honestly though I've heard people complain about sensors/gearboxes/engines in their VW GTI's, EVOs or STi's, Nissan GTRs, Audi anything, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Corvette. Mclaren has had to bring all their cars in because of sensors. It's just the characteristics of the modern car with all of the computers and sensors

 

Not quite Tifosi15,nothing wrong with the sensors ,its the mapping controlling them,making them too sensitive,as you know that re-mapping is underway,when its complete in a few days thats when we will find if the sensors are all working correctly!!!!!,although after 1500 miles ive had plenty of sensor warnings ,but no problems.Actually the cars havent been brought in for the sensors,there is no point untill the re-map is complete.The irony of it is if this was a stripped out car with none of the luxuries then the only problem would have be the door opening,which was sorted in a few days.
Anyway i still hope everthing is Ok with the posters car
p.s. im not a windup merchant,prefer to build bridges,and as fellow petrolheads i think its important for you guys to hear it from the horses mouth,and not the press who like to embelish everyones woes

 

I'll apologize now, I think I came across a little peckish in my response, that was not my intention

I think you confirmed my statement.

Glad to hear you are enjoying your 12C, you picked my favorite color for it

Hope the OP gets his problems sorted easily as others have

 

And...... Back to the impressions of the aventador...????

 

Reason enough to consider that dealer in the future. I always want to deal with those that treat potential customers well!!

 

I hope it's fixed and hope no test drive will be done in the rain! Have they hidden my car and NOT told me it's in?

 

that was exactly why.
i wore a lambo sweat shirt when my tranny went coo-coo, fixed itself out later, but im not fuxking with superstition again. retarded and unscientific i know, but u should hear what all italian ferrari guys say about lambos!!.....
