Embarrassing Question - Oil Change

Where do I get my Gallardo's oil changed? Lambo dealership the main option?

its actually not that bad. not as easy as a honda or porsche but it's definitely something you can do in an hour if you have ever done oil change before.

dealers and indept shops are both good places to go if you don't want to get hands dirty. make sure you ask the oil weight the shop uses.

That looks easier than my Audi... The filter is easier in the S4, but the bottom of the car is a Torx fastener nightmare.

Yea, I will say easier then some Audi's.

Now what does the dealer charge for this service? $500-2000?

I'll change anyones Lambo oil for 1/2 of the dealer!

I think dealer charges about 400-500 typically. Some will do it for 300. Not too bad. They will upsell you on other services though.
