  • In this video, we strip down a 6.2 V12 engine from a Murcielago, to find out what's wrong with it. Along the way we show you some of the quirky features of this huge Italian engine, and explain how various components work and the specialist tools that are needed.
    It's a long one at almost an hour, so grab yourself a brew, sit back and enjoy it!

    ​In my opinion these guys here at RE P show a lot more into the actual workings and rectification of the engine as opposed to the 'here's the one we made earlier' approach of Iain Tyrrell's garage. Both a joy to watch but RE P have the edge (see what I did there) for me !

    Great work guys. With the motor out you will want to replace the bearings on the shaft that goes back to the diff. Also upgrade that rubber coolant hose that comes off of both heads. I have videos on my page that explain both. It's a nothing expense that will save your customer a ton of grief and expense when the engine is in the car.

  • @johnhaffenden9576

    Brings back memories, working on these engines and cars, its amazing that that engine was based on something that was designed in the 60's, 350, Espada, Countach Diablo, like you say a work of art, certainly taught Mr. Ferrari a lesson after his comments about a farmer knowing nothing about engineering. Great Vlog, thank you regards john

    Another reason for head gasket issues, based on my experience, is failure to change the coolant at stipulated intervals, the anti corrosion inhibitors become depleted causing problems such as this.

    I've been planning on building a v 12 using motorcycle engine parts. You know, cuz it wouldn't be a fun project if it wasn't challenging... After watching this I'm reconsidering. That looks like a pain in the ass! Insanely overcomplicated for the sake of being overcomplicated. But wow, you are an artist taking that beast down like a pro! Good job.
    Eh, I'm still going to build my motor... I'll try anyway.

    Great stuff as always.
    With the heads off do you check that all valves are sealing properly and if not do a quick re-lap. Also with the valves, do you replace valve stem seals just because you're there and you can.
    Head Gasket - are you replacing like for like or do you have the option of multi-layer???
    What other main serviceable items do you do in V12 Lambo with the engine out, Clutch & Flywheel, Water Pump, Pulleys & Belts. Maybe not all being done by you guys but Lambo themselves.
