Fuel Feed Line Quick Connector Detachment Risk (DVSA Recall R/2024/308)

SeriousFuel System

On early-production 2023–2024 Lamborghini Revuelto models, the high-pressure fuel feed lines supplying the 6.5-litre V12 direct injection system were fitted with quick connectors that may not have been manufactured or seated to factory specification. Under sustained fuel rail pressure and high engine-bay thermal loads, the fuel feed hose can work loose from the quick connector fitting. This creates a severe pressurized petrol leak in close proximity to hot exhaust manifolds and the catalytic converter housing, presenting an acute fire hazard. The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) issued safety recall R/2024/308 (campaign code L74X-R.01.24) covering UK vehicles manufactured between December 2023 and April 2024, mandating complete replacement of the fuel feed lines with redesigned locking assemblies.

Est. Repair Cost: £0 (safety recall) / £800–£1,600 out-of-warranty replacement
Warning Signs:

Strong smell of raw petrol in the cabin or around the engine bay after driving, Fuel weeping or pooling visible on the engine undertray underneath the rear bulkhead, Check engine light or low fuel pressure warning on the instrument display, Engine hesitation or sputtering under sudden full throttle demand

What to Inspect:
  • Check the official DVSA/Lamborghini Unica digital service register to confirm recall R/2024/308 has been completed
  • Inspect the high-pressure fuel feed line quick connectors at the rear engine bulkhead for updated metal locking clips
  • Verify there is no fuel residue, weeping, or fuel odor around the rear engine bay plumbing
  • Confirm with an authorized Lamborghini franchise dealer that all fuel system campaign bulletins are signed off
