Lamborghini

Fuel contamination remediation standards by model

Lamborghini manufacturer position

Lamborghini sells high-performance petrol models and the Urus SUV in New Zealand through authorised dealers. All current NZ models use petrol engines; diesel at a forecourt is rare but serious. Service information is available to dealers via factory systems with VW Group architecture on shared platforms.

Fuel system notes

  • Premium petrol required on all NZ Lamborghini road cars.
  • Low ground clearance — use appropriate recovery and workshop lift.

Frequently asked questions

What should I do if I put the wrong fuel in my Lamborghini?

Do not start the engine or turn the ignition on if the lift pump may prime. Arrange recovery to an NZIFDA certified technician and follow OEM service information for tank draining and inspection.

Does Lamborghini warranty cover misfuel damage in New Zealand?

No. Fuel contamination is treated as misuse and is excluded under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 manufacturer remedies. Keep drainage invoices for insurance or Motor Vehicle Disputes Tribunal records.

Can fuel be siphoned from the filler neck on a Lamborghini?

OEM service information documents recovery via the fuel pump module and/or tank removal with approved equipment — not filler-neck siphoning. NZIFDA certified work follows those procedures.
