It seems like the Ferrari F1 Team was also a part of the instructions manual creation; Incredible potential and expectation yet poor execution.

In this step we can add a new 6 module long axle or a used grey friction pin. Which one would you like. Question.

Videos like this are what separates you from the other LEGO influencers, and makes you one of the best LEGO channels on KZbin! Thank you!

[@rictusmetallicus]

I second that.

[@GamerNRetro]

If you ask me, this is unacceptable. When you're paying $450 for a building model, the instructions to build it should be complete and accurate. This seems to be a trend with their large technic vehicles.

[@kigeruse]

i cant even condone paying this much for legos especially when all its going to do after being built its just sit on a shelf a lot of extra gimmicks that dont really matter. the mclaren senna its the sweet spot i rather they add suspension to those type of sets and just raise the price a bit make it 80.

[@Caljkusic1]

They should put a qr code on the first page of the manual that leads you to a web page that shows you if there are any updates or changes to the build and problem solved

[@dexall7539]

Thank goodness for your clear video! I only just got into the Technic range and love the challenge but really didn’t expect Lego to make ANY errors. Now I know and will use the digital versions in future. And come to you for any fixes needed!

[@Inflator82]

Lego gets more expensive and lazier at quality control at the same time. Nice!

[@ashark8968]

Only the best is good enough.

[@bloodymarvelous4790]

The builds also get more and more complex, making it easier to overlook some things while putting the instructions together.

Excellent explanation you made on updating the instructions of the Ferrara Ferrari Daytona so at least when I decide to buy it I know that I will have no problems after having mounted it

[@legohivemind]

If I had a penny every time Lego technic instruction had an error I would have 10 penny’s which isn’t a lot but it’s surprising it happened 10 times.

I have yet to buy this model and from what I've seen so far, glad I haven't. I will buy it (Christmas present to me) just glad to see that the issues are being fixed. As always your builds and reviews are greatly appreciated.

[@najb01]

I just happened across this video and it has been extremely useful, Like other have said, these level of errors should not exist in a 'flagship' set, but thank goodness you spotted them.

[@xy_iron]

HOW COULD LEGO LET THIS PASS? SO MANY ERRORS ON A FLAGSHIP SET That's just disappointing

[@mikosoft]

It's Ferrari.

@@mikosoft sian also has several errors including incorrect coloring on half of the pieces. Id say thats much worse than a few errors in the manual.

[@dethsightgaming]

just ordered mine yesterday. glad i saw this video pop up in my feed again! excellent vid as always!

[@jancharouz3252]

When I build mine in July, I even sent customer support a link to your article and they said they would forward it to the quality department. seems they didnt.. 🙂

[@RacingBrick]

I sent them my findings based on the review set even before the set was officially revealed...

[@mb.3g]

Ever since the incorrect gear order with the GT3 RS I've always made sure to double check online for instructions errors prior to building. Thanks for the video!

[@GodmanchesterGoblin]

I used to oversee user guides for a UK electronics company. We checked and checked and checked again. If one thing changed and that had an effect on any following pages then they were changed as well so that the whole set of instructions was consistent. Even if we changed a tiny detail in a picture of a product, that got changed everywhere. To me, it looks like 1) Lego don't care, and 2) they gave this task to someone not very experienced and then didn't check their work, because of 1).

[@RacingBrick]

Or 3), LEGO is pushing out more and more complex sets at a higher rate and quality control cannot keep up with this

[@GodmanchesterGoblin]

@@RacingBrick I agree, but some of these kinds of issues should not get that far. So I guess it's a combination of a lack of experience and care by those creating the documents and a lack of adequate QC before release to market.

[@ernesto8482]

How do I fix the gearbox once the car is finished? Is there an easy way? My shifter only gies up or down, I thought it would get fixed later but I was wrong 😢 any help is appreciated

[@alego73]

1) I love the dog :-) 2) Thank you so much for these precious suggestions!

[@richardjulien1329]

Seriously, the quality of the plastic dropped ( not dramatically, but still noticeably ), the price went up, and there are errors on heavy priced sets... Please Lego return to your quality guaranteed from before... Remember that time where the grandpa forced his son to put the 3rd layer of paint on wooden duck and return to highest quality plastic without errors... I'm fine with a little augmentation of the price, bit not with a drop of the quality...

[@andreaannibale1465]

Thanks a lot for your service 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@arakafafian]

They should ship updated manuals

[@TraidFC]

Awesome information! thanks so much. BTW, how did you use the 3D design modelling slowed at 5:18? that's very helpful!

[@RacingBrick]

That's the model in LDCad

[@TraidFC]

@@RacingBrick The root file is something that Lego provides? Can I download it somewhere? Thanks for the fast response!

[@JaaaayWu]

i just finish building this set and i found a way for the engine cover to stay up, just take off the 2 small red pieces (4.85 BUSH FRICTION W/ KNOB) off the top of the engine support beam (TECHNIC 9M BEAM) and replace it with the BEAM 1X1 along with the CONNECTOR PEG W. FRICTION at the bottom of the support beam. Well if you have extra 4.85 BUSH FRICTION W/ KNOB lying around then you dont have to remove the top 2

[@ZackHeinson]

If only they would have made it that way.

[@Attika]

People complain that the building process is not as challenging as it was in the old days. It seems to me LEGO has solved the problem. It is challenging again. 😁

[@RacingBrick]

Trick or treat! 🎃

[@klaus.sfc01official30]

This reminds me of not an error but i think a funny part in the instructions for the ford raptor where you where warned to not turn a certain piece in a way that isn't even possible lol

[@legohivemind]

@@Danse_Macabre_125 depends on your definition of expensive

[@Danse_Macabre_125]

@@legohivemind I meant relative to what you're getting, it's nowhere near affordable but I won't expect a model car at a remotely similar scale to be affordable. Mind you, there's also the cost of having to rearrange half the collection to fit this unless you have shittons of shelves

[@andrewedmonds1541]

Thank you for your help on this. I have an issue with the paddle gear change only allowing 1 up and 1 down shift but having stripped this down twice, I'm unsure what has stopped working.

[@cmartin_ok]

I admire your dedication and thoroughness. Sadly this set is out of my price range... although with the number of errors in the instructions, perhaps that's just as well !

[@jcmc3445]

Really poor QA from Lego...

[@Jonni65]

Hey love your videos Ps: love from finland

[@BuffedPotato]

Strange that no one mentioned a very obvious error on steps 978-979, not only are the angles wrong there, but the pieces themselves are wrong too. Had to look at step 980 for reference, which was correct. Online version has that error too.

[@AirMarcin8]

have question about stęp 104. I have to make double cardan joint or find it? I don't see it 😅

[@lukasmullwisch7472]

7:01 my engine cover also didnt stay up, i had to switch the little black L part in the mechansim with an identical one, but here the holes were a little tighter I guess; now it works but it took my 2 hours haha 💀💀

[@rictusmetallicus]

Good news: i just got the Defender for birthday, built it and it works oerfectly without any clicking!

[@twospirit333]

What are the two parts that motorized it? Is it #88013 and #88012? I would like to test my gear system.

[@tmagik6471]

Question, if #104 uses the other longer piece, is the shorter piece supposed to be used in its place on whatever step it’s supposed to be used? Because, I’m on step 162 and I don’t have that linger piece. So I’m assuming I need to exchange it, right??

[@RacingBrick]

Nothing to be exchanged, the pieces to be used are correctly indicated in the steps. Only the checkmark was swapped at 104.

[@gabrielsammut7888]

As of today this set is now selling for €450 from their website. How did the price bump up so much?

[@RacingBrick]

There was a general price increase affecting many LEGO sets, in some countries it was effective from August 1at, in some others from September 1st.

[@gabrielsammut7888]

@@RacingBrick Damn. Guess I better get one from eBay before prices shoot up more.

[@ThomasStalder]

Great job!

[@randomphil8666]

Took long enough, but I guess that’s what happens in large companies when every change has to supposedly be overseen and checked by multiple people. I say supposedly because there should not have been an error in the first place. I wonder if it shows better steps in the mobile app? That has animations / videos sometimes.

[@RacingBrick]

If this update was checked by that many people then again it's quite disappointing, considering the amount of errors left in the manual

At 25 seconds in the video what step do you connect the motor to show the gear shifts. Going to buy a motor and use it to test, also cool to display!

[@RacingBrick]

You can do it at the end of box 1

[@arnoldrimmer9161]

The bugatti was a disappointment too with the front end sagging down due to suspension not being strong enough to bounce back.

They should put the QR code on the manual. Seems stupid that they haven’t for the price of this set

[@n1ta_]

Hi i recently got the set last week, do you know if the booklets that come with the set have been updated as I have gotten about halfway through the set and am just now seeing this video.

[@RacingBrick]

I don't think the manuals are updated, but you can verify easily by comparing them to the digital version. Check the link in the pinned comment to see which ones are the critical steps

[@PatriceGremeau]

Are physical instructions booklets ever updated throughout the lifetime of the sets or do they always print the same initial ones?

[@RacingBrick]

I've seen them being changed, for the Defender for example, but it takes a while.

[@PatriceGremeau]

@@RacingBrick The Defender was a learning experience 🙂

[@Silvercrypto-xk4zy]

Are the printed instructions that come with the set today still wrong? I bought it a few days ago and started building today using the paper instructions

[@RacingBrick]

As you have the set in hand you can easily compare your printed it instructions with the one on LEGO.com

[@astemosca]

Hello, Thank you very much for the video and the explanations. I am currently assembling this model (I am on end of Box 1), based on the online assembly instructions. I think I followed the assembly steps correctly, especially on the gearbox. At the end of box 1, I additionally added the wheels so that I could move the car and observe the gears closely. However, I noticed that on the 2 shortest gears, it is difficult to move the car, you feel that the gears are straining and then almost lock. This is understandable because when you move the car, the reduction ratio is reversed until the engine, so the small gears become the longest and difficult to engage. Do you also have this kind of behavior? I unmounted and remounted several times, also tested without the engine and I would like to be sure before continuing on the next box. Thank you again,

[@ZackHeinson]

Hey I really hope your problem was solved. My set is finished and the gearbox is faulty. It shifts gears but not to low gears with high friction.

[@georgelykiardopoulos2886]

The funny thing is that lego sells this set for 400 euros and I has so many mistakes that can ruin the playability of it like the transmission

You can connect the motor to one of the wheel hubs

[@NooceneSounds]

Dang, this kind of haults me from investing in a large technic vehicle. I have trouble enough building steps wrong to begin with, so the potential for errors in the actual instructions seems like it would be too frustrating and ruin the experience

[@adamboby581]

Is it possible to fix the gearbox after I already built the car? Are there any steps i can do to fix it rather taking the whole car apart?

[@RacingBrick]

That'd be very difficult. The best approach is to try to remove bigger segments of the build by following the manual backwards

This can be so many things, I suggest to try to follow the drive train and see where you disconnect is

[@MajDuty]

As with any manufacturing company, what Lego needs to do is send out to all customers the bulletin and in that bulletin describe the revisions that need to take place. They can do this electronically it really wouldn't take them all that much effort and it is what other manufacturing companies do. At the very least they need to revision control their electronic documents that are available to the public on their website. They simply need to name the subsequent document revision A, or at the very least remove the out of revision document. Typically initial releases of documents are rev dash but I doubt Lego goes to that level of detail but having two documents available to the public online and one of them is out of date or out of rev is inexcusable

[@oxidonis2010]

Hi, a few days ago i downloaded Lego instructions from their page, and i found an error on step 813 (book 2), first, it doesn't look like your updated step 812, and second there's a printing error in number of pieces for bricks, 4 Axle Hose, Soft 7L instead of 2 and 6 Technic Beam 2 x 3 L-Shape with Quarter Ellipse Thick instead of 3.

I followed the updated gear selector positions in step 88, but I found that my transmission works properly in reverse, but when in forward/drive, only every other gear engages (i.e. the car is in neutral). Does anyone else have a similar issue? This issue is not present on the Lamborghini Sian.

[@mitchellt7868]

After working through the instructions again I found that I messed up on step 68. There are two gray gears required for that step, but I only added one! I also later found a similar post on reddit of someone who also had an "extra" gray gear at the end of box 1. Seems like a common gear to miss adding! There should be no "extra" gears at the end of box 1.

I mean I can totally understand LEGO here. How can a customer expect them to put any effort into a high class high cost premium product?
