What's wrong?
The heat exchanger oil line on the 2021 Lamborghini Aventador Svj carries engine oil to and from the heat exchanger, which helps control oil temperature. It uses feed and return lines held by screws at the connection points. Those screws keep the lines sealed while hot oil moves through the system under pressure.
In NHTSA campaign 21V927, Lamborghini found inconsistent assembly data for the screws on the heat exchanger oil line connections. The concern is that the screws were not tightened to the required torque during production. If that connection loosens, an oil line can detach from the heat exchanger and release engine oil where it does not belong. Lamborghini traced the issue to a production process deviation, not to a design change in correctly mounted oil lines.
There is no warning sign before failure. The owner should not expect a dashboard message, noise, smell, or visible leak before the connection fails.
