Lamborghini Gallardo

Differential fluid capacity & service interval

Lamborghini Gallardo differential fluid capacity ranges from 1,3 to 1,4 liters. Service intervals include checks at 12000 km and 15000 km, with fluid changes at 24000 km and 45000 km or 36 months. The data covers 6 configurations.

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

Additional Notes

  • The Lamborghini Gallardo front differential fluid capacity splits into two distinct values across the model range. The 500, 510, 520, and Superleggera variants produced through 2008 all share a 1.3-liter capacity, while the LP 560-4 and LP 570-4 Superleggera carry a slightly larger 1.4-liter capacity. A difference of 0.1 liter in a differential this small is proportionally meaningful and reflects a revised housing or gear set in the later platform.
  • The earlier Gallardo variants — the 500, 510, 520, and Superleggera (2007-2008) — follow a 12,000 km check interval paired with a 24,000 km change interval for the front differential fluid. Both intervals are specified for normal use conditions.
  • The LP 560-4 and LP 570-4 Superleggera move to a 15,000 km check interval and a 45,000 km change interval, nearly doubling the drain interval compared to the earlier variants. A 36-month time limit accompanies the 45,000 km change interval, meaning whichever threshold is reached first governs the service point regardless of mileage accumulation.
  • The Gallardo 500 and 510 share identical front differential fluid specifications — 1.3-liter capacity, 12,000 km check, and 24,000 km change — despite representing different power outputs within the same 2003-2006 production window.
  • The Gallardo 520 (2006-2008) carries the same front differential fluid capacity and service intervals as the earlier 500 and 510 variants, placing the specification change at the LP 560-4 introduction in 2008 rather than at the 520's mid-cycle update.
  • The Gallardo Superleggera (2007-2008) retains the 1.3-liter front differential capacity and the 24,000 km change interval of the pre-LP generation, aligning with the 520 rather than the later LP 570-4 Superleggera, which uses the revised 1.4-liter specification introduced with the LP platform.
