Hi , just got my new G spyder which I adore , 6k miles , yellow , 2006 56 etc etc , now as good as it is I have a few problems with it , I have searched every lambo forum I can with no luck so.

1) The fuel filler cap wont always pop open , meaning I have to use a credit card to flick it open , is this common?

2) Lasty , the more inportant one , After leaving it standing for a few days , a tiny bit of geeen fluid was left of the garage floor (about 50p size) , the car then (when cold) brought up a coolant overheat waring message on the dash but as I said this is impossible as it was just started.

I will give lambo assistance a call but just thought I would ask on here?

Thanks in advance

I had the same coolant thing with my Spyder once - iirc it was just a clip on one of the hoses which needed tightening - easy fix

Hopefully thats all thats wrong with yours

Congrats on the car.

I assume on the filler cap you always: stop at pump, turn off engine, with key still in ignition press filler cap button? This always works for me. If you take the key out it doesn't
