REAL COST to Maintain a Lamborghini Gallardo at Home! *Price May Shock You*
👋 In today's video I do an at home oil change and cabin air filter change for my 2014 Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2. Looking at its CarFax, the last service was done in 2022 around 17,000 miles. However it wasn't specific on what the service was. The current oil color looked pretty clean and was at the correct level, but now that I've driven the Gallardo 1,700 miles over 5 months, I figured I should do a full oil change on the car just to make sure I know the oil condition and get my car on the maintenance schedule I do for all my cars. Changing the oil on the Lamborghini Gallardo is pretty simple. There are 7 drain plugs total. One oil cooler, one oil tank, three drain plugs under the engine, one drain plug in the front of the engine, and one drain plug in between the engine and transmission. Overall looks like 8 quarts came out, and I topped it off adding 8 quarts to get the correct reading. The Gallardo has a dry sump oil system and you need to measure the oil once it's warmed up with the engine off. My reading is just above the middle line. I used the OEM oil filter for the change and this wasn't all too difficult. The cabin air filters were a bit of a pain. Removing some of the fuse boxes and brackets in the passenger foot well. And really bending the old ones to remove. I had to bend the new ones a bit to slide back into place, but I was careful and they straitened out nicely back installed. I doubt the cabin filters have ever been changed in 10 years. So now it's nice to have fresh cabin filters and a fresh oil change! Time to keep racking up the miles in the Gallardo! Maintaining this car isn't really all that much money if you do things yourself. This was about $100 for a good service on the LP550! Everyone said maintaining a Lamborghini Gallardo at home was expensive. Certainly nothing crazy to do routine maintenance on the V10!

Now I can be even more thankful for my Honda oil and cabin change. Nice to see though.
Haha for real! The normal brands keep it easy 😅
Very cool that you do your own oil changes on a supercar. When I had my NSX I was too afraid to mess something up.
These really aren’t hard. Just a few more bolts then normal lol
Gret job!!! Great video love the way you showed everything step by step
Thanks! Easy process overall! Fun car to work on
Oh damn! You finished the rebuild, good job dude. I'm about to backtrack, to catch up on what I've missed previously.
Yeah I have 12 rebuild videos! Got this done in 4 months! Crazy project to tackle but she's back and ready to roll!
Looks good!!!!!
Thanks!
Great video! Question, is there a plug sequence of how you should drain the oil or it doesn't matter? Also, I keep cracking up at seeing all the Audi 4 ring logo on the components.
No order from what I've seen. You will just get the most oil out of the first bolts you drain. So I'd say drain the easiest bolts first where you can have your pan under and make the least amount of mess. Yeah sooo many parts are Audi! Funny to see for sure! Even the new swaybar end link I had to order had an Audi logo on it, but it came in a Lamborghini bag!
Such an awesome car! But, man am I glad we have 2 newer Subarus 😂
Enjoy what you like 😉
The lambo air filters like the Nissan Maxima air filter in the cut
Oh yeah
I recently replaced all my fluids in my 2013 LP560. I highly recommend you do the same, everything was very degraded. Especially e gear and front and rear differential/transmission. I changed coolant, front and rear diff, trans, e gear, power steering. They are not lifetime as manual says, Lamborghini considers lifetime as 10 years. Don’t ask why.
Oh nice! What all do you need to do for the rear diff and tranmission? I did a break flush already. Havent don't steering or coolant yet
Nice! Yeah “lifetime” is meaningless. Lifetime of what?! The vehicle lifetime? The transmission lifetime?! Mercedes used to say the same thing and ended up in a class action lawsuit.
I had my guy do it. He was a Lambo mechanic at the local Lambo dealership but since went independent. Amazing price for everything. Very happy with him. I would do every fluid though, it’s time and you will feel good about your car when it’s done.
Yea it’s not the case, long time but not lifetime
@@number36420Nice I’ll take a look at other services and plan to do everything this year. 10 years seems like a good time to do everything!
Why in the world would they make it that much of a pain to change the cabin filters?! That’s wild!
For real! I’d love to be in the meeting when the designers agree this is where to put them 😅. They totally had room under the glove box like normal cars
LOL. Now you know why they didn't change the cabin air filters.
😂😂😂😂
For real! Such a bad location! Took me about an hour to do it ;)
Not only do you enjoy your blessings, but you work and maintain them. 💯 I'm guessing around $350 for a Gallardo oil change at the Lamborghini dealer. More? Did you see what they were saying at the dealership for a laugh? I'm surprised you had to take all that off for the cabin air filter- Great maintenance Brian! 👌
Try a grand
@@number36420 😂 You're probably right lol
Yeah I'm not to sure what the dealer charges. I know they charge $250 to do the cabin filters! That was a big pain in the butt tho lol. But fun car to work on and I'll probably do nearly all the maintenance myself.
❤
Thanks for checking out the video!
Damn im early
Thanks for checking out the video!
5W/50W full synthetic oils should only be used in lambos!! Despite what that dam engine bay sticker says!! My advice is DO NOT race that engine with 5w/30s ffs!!😢😢😢
Why on earth would you say that? If the badge from Lamborghini from Italy 🇮🇹 says 5W30 why would you use anything else? OW oil?
@@oreally8605 32years racing pal, it's my advice as race car technician! Take the advice or leave it it's not my car or my engine... My Lamborghini is perfect in ever single way 😀
@@oreally8605 do you have a basic understanding of oils and the Weights? Once you do we will have a grown up conversation about it and the technical side of oils
@@oreally8605 then we will talk about the lambos turbos and boost levels and ECU technology incorporated in the onboard computer systems! Lamborghini is now Audi and it's no longer Italian 😂
Looking at forums I saw 5w40 and 5w30 come up the most. I'll stick with doing what the car says. I also don't race my car. Some fun mountain road trip and a few accelerations are the extent to my hard driving.
