Hi all,

I've had the Lusso since Nov and it has a strange resonance noise from the rear between 65 and 75 mph.

Its like a resonace or the sort of noise you get when diff gears aren't set up properly. It starts about 65 and get louder and then fades away at 75... It happens in any gear and you can play with it on the throttle, so its load related (ie off throttle it goes away).... but its really annoying as that's generally motorway speed.

Ferrari dealer say it's how all Lussos sound and have tried to fix it on other cars but even a gearbox swap didnt solve it in their experience. To be fair I tried 2 others which have the same noise, just not as loud as mine.

Anyone else have similar?
