CarPlay is standard on STO right? I saw that it's part of functional pack on tecnica, but see no CarPlay option for STO.
It’s standard, but anti-theft system is not. Which is weird because that’s standard on my evo spyder and also on tecnica. It was not standard on Perf or older Evo or 610/580CarPlay is standard on STO right? I saw that it's part of functional pack on tecnica, but see no CarPlay option for STO.
ahh ok I specced the anti theft, crazy that’s it not standard. So without it there is no alarm at all?It’s standard, but anti-theft system is not. Which is weird because that’s standard on my evo spyder and also on tecnica. It was not standard on Perf or older Evo or 610/580
Yeah crazy is correct lol. If you don’t have anti theft the car doesn’t make any sound when you lock it with the key fob. That’s a tell tell sign of a Huracan missing anti theft.ahh ok I specced the anti theft, crazy that’s it not standard. So without it there is no alarm at all?
I cannot comment specifically to pccb or "non R" ceramics but compared to my Lotus Evora GT the pads last longer on the STO. However, they cost 12x's more for just a front set of pads iirc $4k. Even more for rear - $6k. If I were to go out on a limb with only a guess - I would say yes they last longer than standard ceramics. Pad price is prohibitively expensive. I do not note any rotor wear.Has anyone been able to verify if the CCM-R brakes last longer than standard carbon ceramics with track use?
Mine works as it should but I agree the interface is by no means my favorite. My HP makes things easyIs the infotainment system in this car really F'ked up. My service manager could not get it to work with my bluetooth and said it is actully a slightly different system than other Lambos. I had previously found it erratic, sometimes able to get it to work. He ended up suggesting I use corded car play. It doesn't help that there are multiple symbols that look like an ipod or iphone or that, using spotify, Siri will sometimes announce through the speakers that she is about to play music and then nothing happens. Or that start play buttons start nothing.
I this stupidity on my part or inexcusable stupidity by Lambo who never should have put radio and climate control functions on touch screen. Very much diminishes the joy of driving the car when you have to fiddle with this crap and often have no music. My 2015 is easy, comfortable and has a better exhaust sound.
I have been going nuts trying to figure out why my sto doesn’t chirp. Maybe this is why - is this something we can add after.

Change the battery on your remoteMy fob/ignition is acting up. It won't start the car and says something about see manual. It will unlock the doors. It's been in storage for over a month or two on battery tender.
ETA - eventually starts.
What royalty has planned for that Sto makes me sick to my stomach to see. Take an STO and tear out all its attributes, manual shifting…What do you say about a MANUAL STO?
If you need a hand setting up your Bluetooth let me know, or anyone on here can walk you thru the process of getting it paired and how to switch the audio in to Bluetooth which needs to be done almost everytimeIs the infotainment system in this car really F'ked up.

Lasted less than a year 🙁 but an easy fix then.Change the battery on your remote
Dude must have a lot of money to blow because he's always doing very expensive frankenstein projects.What do you say about a MANUAL STO?
So good to see someone using the STO as it’s truly designed to do.I cannot comment specifically to pccb or "non R" ceramics but compared to my Lotus Evora GT the pads last longer on the STO. However, they cost 12x's more for just a front set of pads iirc $4k. Even more for rear - $6k. If I were to go out on a limb with only a guess - I would say yes they last longer than standard ceramics. Pad price is prohibitively expensive. I do not note any rotor wear.
The rears do a lot of work for ESC/torque vectoring. Below is a random photo from the other day of my rear rotor and calipers.
I would be eager to get a hardcore racing braking setup with massive pads but I wonder how it would play with the esc designed specifically for this ccm'r setup and calipers.
And there is dust - in part as I understand the pad compounds have had to change due to environmental reasons. That's what I read on Rennlist - something to do with copper?
a bit OT, would like to understand tge maintenance and parts the 458 has required as a result if tracking. Also read quite a bit that the brakes on 458 dont hold up to track use. Is that just because the pads are for street use? Separately, I used to think the brakes sucked for street use (no immediate bite) but now after having them flushed they are great on the street. When i bought the car i had the brake fluid flushed but they did a ****ty job for sure.So good to see someone using the STO as it’s truly designed to do.
I have tracked the 458 pretty extensively, and with respect to brake pads, you pretty much get what you pay for.
Track pads last longer, but are more expensive. And they squeal like crazy around town.
I burned through my ceramic discs (you can really only tell wear by weighing them accd to my mechanic) and now run GIRO iron rotors and Pagid pads. Great setup (albeit heavier).
Yes the electronic nannies will wear the rears quicker, that’s what they’re meant to do. In the ideal world, the system wouldn’t be intervening so much…….as I’ve gotten smoother, I’ve also started turning them all off (458).
Finally, I‘ve started to pay attention to my calipers - will need a refurb soon. Some tracks are brutal on brakes (e.g., Sebring) and it’s the price of fun.
Great to see a Lamborghini owner enjoy the bull!
Tires and pads have been the number one maintenance items, followed by fluid changes (brake fluid, oil). The 458 has been a remarkably bulletproof car on track. Just completed 34 days on track at Sebring last week! Been to all the best tracks out east, and next year will do Pitt, mid-OHIO, Barbor and Flatrock.a bit OT, would like to understand tge maintenance and parts the 458 has required as a result if tracking.
