question about diablo SV's

hi guys,

 

need your help here, i've never seen a diablo SV here in SA with SV written on the side of the car like allan's diablo. i just want to know is it a vinyl or is it painted in like that?

its a sort of sticker i believe, some sv's dont have it

^But they all should IMO. I think it looks sweet.

sticker, vinyl similar if not same thing

 

i agree ryan, anyone know where one could put this on their SV? the dealer? aftermarket?

 

OOO and another question, do diablo's have ride height control? for example, raising/lowering the car with the push of a button?

with "old" ones do you mean not the diablo's? just the gallardo and murcie?

Its a sticker.

 

thanks for the reply allan! do you maybe know where one can order such a sticker? or would you have to get it custom made aftermrket now days?

Lambo dealer can get it.

Not the old Diablos. I think it got standard around '97, but i might be a little off...

98+

thanks allan :mrgreen: , does anyone have a pic of what the button etc. looks like and where it's located?

 

sorry i'm so inquisitive, reason is, i'm looking at buying this one and i don't wanna look like a dumb ass infront of the salesman. want to know my stuff so that he can't BS me. i don't know a lot about lambos :oops:

I guess this is the button on a pre-99 SV. What year is it? What kind of exhaust is it? Exhaust doesnt look stock to me...

1. It's a good thing that you inform yourself first.

2. Can you get pics of that silver Diablo next to the yellow one? I'm a sucker for silver :oops:

I think he means the buttons to lower and rise the suspension.

 

Here's the buttons on the 99 and later:

 

A VT Roadster (in front of the gear lever):

 

The layout and looks of the buttons are the same on all Diablos i think, so you know what to look for

Could You guys please stop the misinformation? :roll:

These controls operate the suspension's hardness.

 

This is how the lift buttons look like in Diablos previous to 6.0's.

Lol, sorry :mrgreen:

But you wouldn't have one without the other, right?

Btw, isn't that auto button to automaticly lower the car when you get above a certain speed? Or do it just make the suspension harder?

 

Uhm, btw I can't find that button you indicate on the 6.0, does it have it?

Hi Pieter, thanks for the info

 

the SV i'm looking at is a 97/98 i forgot what the dealer said again. has 10k miles further than that i know nothing more about the car :roll:

 

are you sure that's the button, just wanna double make sure

 

having the ride height control is important as we in south africa have got mountain sized speed bumps and a diablo will scratch really bad or get stuck on one of them.

the silver one is a VT, not an SV here's another pic of it

Yummy! Any front shots of both the VT and the SV?

unfortunately no didn't think about taking pics from the front, but i'll be going there again soon, will get pics for you then

All SVs had stickers. Many owners removed them.

 

All of them have the hydraulic front lift kit.

 

The 99 has a revised interior and exposed front lights.

 

That's all you need to know, now go look/drive them and pick.

 

PS - Peter is right, STOP posting about shit you have no clue on. I've told the board before that these "Named" car sections are for owners only, not newbies "guessing" wtf each button does and how the funtions work.

 

Sorry to be hard, but Placid and any other non-owner who doesn't know the details, stop posting as it distracts from actual problems being solved that current owners are seeking help on.

Correction, there is no U.S. model 97 Sv.

Nothing to be sorry about, my bad. When the dealer showed me the hydraulic front lift i would swear he pushed that other button, but I was wrong. :oops:

 

I'll be more careful in the future

 

But still, I can't seem to find that button that do lower and rise the car on 6.0 interior pictures I have... Where is it?

Thanks Mike, looking forward to it!
