samuel10 Report post Posted September 8, 2011 Hi, I am a relatively new owner of a European 99 Diablo VT Roadster. Due to my newly found interest for Diablo technical trivia, I decided to check the gearbox number of my car. The number turned out to be “B2419” (see pic). Now, according to the workshop manual (Diablo four wheel drive (VT) MY 97 – 98 -99, Chapter 21, page 6 ): “The different gear ratios are identified by a letter in front of the gear (box) number: no letter: STANDARD letter “C”: short ratios EEC vehicles letter “A”: short ratios USA vehicles” Has this come up before? Logically, B should stand for standard gear ratios, right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuel10 Report post Posted September 12, 2011 If anyone has access to a service manual for a 6.0 Diablo (or a sample of 6.0 gearboxes... ); Was the letter B used to identify gearboxes in 6.0 Diablos? The reason for asking is that my 99 has a very late VIN (later than US Millennium Edition Roadsters for example), and I am guessing/thinking that maybe this car has the same gearbox as found in the later Diablo models.

lamboservice Report post Posted December 26, 2011 Hello Samuel Europe calling here too .. also late 99 Roadster with possibly short ratio, caled 'sport gear' option. I will check my number on it later, I wouldalso like to know more of it. It seems to what I've heard, that sometimes custom ratios were built, not only 2 types of ratios. I will come back here later if I find more info Peter Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
