Back in the world of Lamborghini, brought a Murci this week and want to check oil.
Was going to use 5w40....any other murci owners suggest different?

Thanks, Lord.

Strictly speaking I think the correct spec oil approved by the factory is AGIP 5/30??? And the Murcie engine seems to be quite fussy on which oil is used.

Thanks - grimaldi is too far to go just for oil, but i do think agip oil is impossible to find. I once went into Halfords asking if they sold it, the chap looked at me as if i'd just come out of a time machine.

The Agip stuff from Motoworld is best for Murcies especially high mileage ones. Idling when very hot the oil warning light occasionally shows with Mobil 1 in. With Agip the pressure is far better. I use thicker Agip oil in all the Supercars.
