Product Description:
The purpose of Lamborghini part number 400407379F 0.3-mm shim is to adjust the clearance between two mating surfaces. It is a thin piece of metal that is placed between two parts to create a small gap. This gap can be used to adjust the alignment of the parts, to reduce vibration, or to provide a wear surface.
In the case of the Lamborghini Gallardo, the 0.3-mm shim is used to adjust the clearance between the valve lifter and the camshaft. This clearance is important for ensuring that the valves open and close at the correct time. If the clearance is too small, the valves will not open fully, which will reduce engine performance. If the clearance is too large, the valves will make noise and may eventually wear out prematurely.
The 0.3-mm shim is a very small part, but it plays an important role in the engine. It is important to have the shims adjusted properly by a qualified technician.
Here are some additional details about the purpose of shims in general:
Shims can be used to adjust the preload of a bearing. This is the amount of force that is applied to the bearing when it is not under load. Preload is important for reducing friction and wear.
Shims can also be used to adjust the alignment of two mating surfaces. This is important for ensuring that the parts work together properly.
Shims can also be used to create a wear surface. This can be useful for protecting more expensive parts from wear and tear.
Shims are used in a variety of applications, including engines, transmissions, and suspension systems. They are a simple but important part that can help to ensure that machinery operates smoothly and efficiently.
This car part is suitable for the following models:
Gallardo (2003-2005), Gallardo (2006-2007), Gallardo (2008), Gallardo Spyder, Gallardo Superleggera
