My low oil pressure light kept coming on and we think it is most likely the oil pressure sensor as they tend to go bad in these Gallardos. So, it looks like I’m digging into the engine to change it…

ok ok i get it you miss driving the car
question,? why do exotics always have to be hooked up to a battery tender, what is it that is constantly drawing power while it's sitting?..
A crows foot and a swivel could have saved you a lot of headache
Beautiful car though, and I wish I had the same problem :/
Its my dream to have a 2 post lift in my garage 🙂
Pretty good deal for a $20 sensor. Just replace a $200 John Deere bearing on my tractor for a cross referenced $7 bearing, same brand bearing, but didn't have the John Deere green colored bag.
now I understand why it cost so much to maintain a supercar…
I hate PITA stuff like that, but, that's the way it goes sometimes. At least you have the knowledge and facilities to do it.
I love your videos–the presentation is excellent without being "Hollywood", and you provide just the right amount of detail in describing things without being boring. Can you tell me, do you still get butterflies thinking about your Lambo? Do you find yourself still going into the garage just to admire its looks? As many exotics as I've seen and occasionally worked on, I don't think I'd ever get used to seeing one in my own garage. Keep up the good work, this beats regular tv all day.
Much applause for undertaking the task yourself, a most sensible approach, wish you a favorable conclusion.
Peter, how much do you think you'd say you save annually in maintenance costs? By that I mean since you're mechanically inclined and know how to fix stuff on cars, you do all the repair yourself. I think on a car like Lambo mechanical replacements and maintenance would be very expensive in a dealership and since you do it yourself, do you know how much money you save?
I think you took into account that you can do repairs yourself before you bought the Lambo, knowing you'd be saving a good amount of money. If you didn't know how to fix cars and since your Lambo is older and needs more repairs when needed, do you think you still would have bought your Lambo?
that i've seen
this is the first time i see the raw engine bay of a lamborghini, i think it's cool how you're the only lamborghini owner that works on his own car and doesnt panic just because its an expensive car.
sounds like my mitsubishi have to remove the intake manifold just to change the spark plugs
Looks easier than where they put the oil pressure unit on the Murcielago. Looks like I have to pull my engine to just get at it.
Eh good luck Peter
Wish i could work on my own Gallardo as you do but eh give me a spanner and I'll break something lol
Hey peter I know that you like to work on your cars, but for some like me if I had got this build and wasn't as experienced would Lamborghini still be willing to change the sensor ?
Yes, kudos for tackling this; and nice 1G Talon
Pretty cool you're actually doing the work on the Lambo! I'm guessing not many owners do lol…
That lambo is so sexy!
What a nightmare! Good job though. But you learned a lot so it's worth the time. And no telling how much you saved doing this yourself. Guessing it would have cost $1500+ if you took it somewhere.
Nothing major
