Oil change. Perform before storage or after?
yellomurci replied to Kisco's topic in Archived Content
I would think changing the oil before storage would be wise. Used oil can contain water and acidic chemicals that can attack the engine internals. Russell -
Spare key has been sent. Russell

Lamborghini predicts return to profitability
yellomurci replied to a007apl's topic in Automobili Lamborghini
Over expansion and exuberance during boom times often translates into trouble paying for overhead and capitol purchases during a downturn. Although I have been critizised for it I always treat expansion with caution and consider the downside. My moto is consistent income is better than a one time quick buck. To many companies make hay while the sun shines and have no option but to close the doors when it rains. Russell -
When people put these big ass wheels on an old car and keep the same diameter brakes do they actually still have the ability to stop? one reason for larger wheels is so you can fit larger rotors with better stopping power. Russell

Annual service for 07 LP coming up. is it true
yellomurci replied to SanjayPatel's topic in Archived Content
$50 a pop and labor thats what is up with that. Russell -
I thought that sport mode only changed the shift speed above a certain rpm (4 or 5000) and had no bearing on the initial take up from a standing start or when driving relativley normally? I do release the gas a bit when changing gear under normal conditions mainly to reduce the trauma to my neck. Russell

Limit use of reverse gear especially up a hill Try not to slip the clutch, give the throttle a good poke from stand still and don't use full throttle until you feel clutch fully engage. Russell

Yup I'm English also!!!!!!

I think we are talking a carbon cover like this one.

This is the key from my old LP640 that can be used as template, is it the same as the G key? Russell
-
I would be interested in the key fob and could be interested in the script (on the fence at moment) I also have a spare key from my 08 lp640 that got totaled that could be used as a template if needed? Russell

I seem to remember reading a post where the watch spring in the steering wheel can become faulty and make the air bag light come on? Also at this milage assume either now or not very distant future a new clutch will be needed, I know some will sat the cluch can last longer but best to be fore warned as it is quite expensive to replace. Russell

Won't apply in a Lambo but if you drive cross country in a Ferrari you would have to stop before the end so you can have the oil changed or when you come to sell it some anal prick will tell you you went over the limit of the oil. By the way good for you, have fun in FL, the furthest I can manage in my murci is about 500 miles but then I am on the wrong side of 50. Russell

Glad you are ok. A couple of years ago I was in seeing the manager of a bank when it got robbed, The manager thought he was doing me a favour by letting me out the back door so I didn't get cought up in the police investigation. As it turned out the police took a dim view of this and kept me on site for about four hours. Russell

If its an LP560 why not take it to the dealer and have them fix under warantee, If you fix it yourself you might loose the warantee? Russell

Oil, the most vital fluid in the engine and on the Murci the hardest to check and top up. Russell

You have to get rid of them in the correct way. As said before document everything and make sure you have proof. Do not do it alone and talk to an HR attorney. Having someone around that you do not trust is not a good thing in business and will probably lead to further problems down the road. You should try to recoup the money but assume it is gone and don't spend much time on it. Also as said prior, close the loop hole that alowed this to happen and go on with your life. Russell
-
I think you are correct on the milage as i also think the service intervals are at 7500 miles so would be 22500 miles ? Russell
-
I think they are doing whatever they can to raise cash and push the cost of r&d and tooling a new car (murci replacement) further into the future. would not be suprised to see a couple of years worth more of limited edition murci cars. That said this car will be bad ass. Russell

So we can assume your one will have 3 pedals and a gear stick then???????????????????????????? Russell

That thing changes gear so fast it makes my EGear in the LP640 sound stupid slow. Are they running a special gear box and ecu control? Russell -
Smoke coming from the engine compartment
yellomurci replied to OrionQuest's topic in Automobili Lamborghini
My engine smoked once when my E Gear fluid burped a bit on my manifold. This happend at a hill climb event and I had just parked and walked away and over the PA a voice said "would the owner of the yellow Lamborghini please return to the car as smoke is comming from the engine" When I got back about 50 people were standing next to it expecting to see a bonfire. I have also had the oil on the manifold thing when trying to top the oil up. Stupid place for the filler on the new lp. Anyway hope your situation turns out OK and is not major. Russell -
OMG it's got rain on it. I thought they melted when rained on????????????????????? Sorry mixed it up with a Ferrari or P car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Russell
