In this video I replace the e-gear hydraulic accumulator on a Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder. The accumulator stores hydraulic pressure so that the system has a reserve of pressure to make multiple shifts, as well as dampen fluid pressure spikes during shifts.

Dude you are my hero, great video!
also, mine is a coupe… so wondering if me prefilling the accumulator would be easier since my accumulator is vertical instead of horizontal?
did you ever need to bleed the lower valve? the one that's buy the actuator? or where you able to do it all from the bleeder valve adjacent to the egear fluid resovoir?
its the same accumulator in a Murcielago. I replaced my accumulator and pump with Alfa Selespeed parts (£90 for accumulator, £220 for a pump).
Thanks for this Evan. What brand/model is your vacuum pump? Cheers from New Zealand!
We’re you having shifting issues prior to replacement? If so, what symptoms
Thanks
