MOT Roadworthiness: Good

Common Problems: LAMBORGHINI GALLARDO
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- eGear Clutch and Actuator Wear(Serious)
The automated manual transmission uses a single-plate clutch and a hydraulic actuator. Stop-start traffic and reversing uphill are the primary killers of these clutches.
- Leaking Nose Lift Shocks(Moderate)
The hydraulic system that raises the front to clear speed bumps can leak fluid from the shocks.
- Excessive Oil Consumption(Moderate)
The 5.0L and 5.2L V10 engines can develop higher-than-expected oil consumption as they age, particularly around valve cover gaskets and camshaft seals. The engine can consume up to 1 litre per 1,000 miles if gaskets have deteriorated. Oil leaks from the valley of the V can drip onto the undertray, making them hard to spot visually.
