New Diablo 6.0 owner here

Hey guys,just wanted to let everyone know that Ive finally realized my dream and purchased a Diablo 6.0.Ive lurked around here for quite a while gathering info while I decided what car to buy.I already feel like I know some through all the reading Ive done.I do have a few questions maybe you could answer though.How do I get rid of the annoying brake pad dust and the squeal?It drives me nuts.Next,Is the the car supposed to have a hunting idle while it warms up?It seems like the nature of the beast.It even goes away and smoothes out after about 30 minutes of driving.All in all the car is absolutley great.I figured it hard to be better than an NSX I once had but this car really runs great.See ya around,

Joe

brakes, I think this can only be avoided by swapping out the pads and getting the rotors turned, or a completely new setup. try looking around for some dustless pads.
as for the idle, I'm not positive about Lambo's but my neighbors Enzo sounds like the devil himself on startup then it slowly smooths out.

Dustless pad so work, however, the Mercedes Dealer told me that they do not recommend them on their cars because they have a tendency to cause exccess rotor wear. You may want to send Tony a PM and ask him because I remember him taking a picture for us of the brake dust build up in one of his Lambo "test". I don't know if he has found a fix for it on his Murcielago, but perhaps he can point you in the right direction.
