Lamborghini R1

Coolant capacity & service interval

Lamborghini R1 coolant capacity ranges from 4,5 to 5,5 liters. Service intervals include checks at 10 hours and changes at 1200 hours or 12 to 24 months. The data covers 8 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • The Lamborghini R1 coolant system capacity falls into two distinct values across all listed configurations: 4.5 liters and 5.5 liters. The 5.5-liter figure applies to the R1.40 and R1.50 engines from 2004-2009, as well as the R1.55 serial-bounded variants from 2010-2016, while the 4.5-liter figure covers the R1.30, R1.35, R1.45, and the remaining R1.55 configurations.
  • The R1.40 from 2004-2009 carries a 5.5-liter cooling system capacity, which is notably higher than the 4.5-liter figure specified for the R1.45 variants from 2010-2016, despite both representing adjacent displacement steps within the same model line.
  • All configurations across 2004-2016 share a uniform coolant check interval of every 10 operating hours, regardless of engine variant or serial number range.
  • The 2004-2009 configurations for the R1.30, R1.40, and R1.50 all specify a coolant change interval of 1,200 hours or 12 months, whichever comes first. The 12-month calendar limit means annual coolant changes are required even in low-usage applications where the hour threshold has not been reached.
  • From 2010-2016, all listed R1 variants extend the calendar-based coolant change interval from 12 months to 24 months, while retaining the same 1,200-hour operating threshold. This doubling of the time-based interval reduces the frequency of scheduled coolant changes in lower-utilization conditions.
  • The R1.45 and R1.55 configurations from 2010-2016 are each split into two serial-number-bounded variants, distinguished by their VIN cutoff points (ZKDS1502V0ML20001 and ZKDS2502V0ML20001 for the R1.45; ZKDS1602V0ML20001 and ZKDS2602V0ML20001 for the R1.55). Both variants within each engine designation share identical capacity and interval specifications.
  • The R1.35 from 2010-2016 carries a serial number upper bound of 20001, indicating the specification applies to units produced up to that chassis number. The 4.5-liter capacity and 1,200-hour or 24-month change interval apply within that production range.
