I WRECKED MY LAMBORGHINI NOW I HAVE TO REBUILD IT

May 12, 2024
I crashed my Lamborghini Gard fortunately, I'm fine, but the car is a little worse for wear. This was the first Lamborghini I bought. Oh dad, I never thought I'd

have

the chance to

have

one and for that reason. The car means a lot to me, it's like a trophy to me, oh, back in my day, and seeing it in this state completely kills me, oh, so after the accident I made the decision to fix this car myself or go to insurance and get paid, but If I took it through insurance, this car would be 100% category B due to all this damage, which would mean it would never be able to get back on the road and for that reason alone is why I choose to repair it myself , who would do it?

I guess I fixed all these other accident damaged cars but didn't fix mine, just hoping to get the DEC right. I'm here because as soon as I start touching this car and taking it apart, my insurance is completely empty that's because it has to be left the same as when it was in the accident but later in the video I find some hidden damage that needs specialized repair and it was up to them if we could go ahead with that. Is this something you do now because we think your car will be a Category B car?

It doesn't necessarily mean that the car is too dangerous to get back on the road, it just means that it's almost too expensive to get back on the road, which I understand, but this doesn't really make any financial sense for me to repair anyway. I know I'm literally doing it because I want this car. I'm going to take a big loss for this and we're taking it. It's a risk to work on it now, but for me it's better than losing this car and I think it's probably going to be one of the most challenging ones yet.
i wrecked my lamborghini now i have to rebuild it
Lesson learned. I will never use semi slicks in a country where it is never dry. Let's take out everything that's broken and figure out what we need to fix this and immediately look at this. This is a jack beam, before we even start, look at the torn damage, it's completely ripped off the top rail of that, oh wow, now let's get everything. that's damaged on the car, yeah, oh, you know what's so damaged there and there and there, oh yeah, no, yeah, and then we can start a list of all the parts we're going to need to order for the gardo, that is it the feeling of beginning?
i wrecked my lamborghini now i have to rebuild it
I should have placed a smaller fountain as soon as we took out the Ling bow, it revealed even more damage to the frame at the front and then part of this frame at the back was also broken. Then I rented the car and checked the can to see if there is any damage underneath, it looks good, oh oh no, other than the bottom tray and the back of the bottom tray, now we need to remove each of the bolts that hold the bottom tray, which of course we will have to replace at some point. There's still a lot of dirt under this car and it's all piled up inside the bulbs oh there's one more oh look at all the glass oh dear, good news, no leaks though.
The bottom looks pretty good, no visual damage, obviously we're going to have to measure. All this, but there is no visual damage. The question is: should I stick with rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive? What do you think is a stupid question? Of course, we are left with rear-wheel drive. I'm not so sure about that, but we're still a long way from making that decision. Freddy arrives to offer a helping hand, all he asks is if he puts it back in four-wheel drive or keeps it in rear-wheel drive. . I think I should convert it to front wheel drive and a final bottom of the The rear end was removed and to be fair the engine and gearbox appear to be undamaged which is good news oh look what I just seeing is what that sky looks at, 30 mph.
I feel like yeah, that's 30m, it could be 27. Are you going to fix it? This is broken, yes, how broken it is, how broken, as we reveal more and more damage. I can feel the price of repairing this is getting more and more expensive. There is a lot of damage to this suspension on the left rear. but again it gives us the opportunity to improve it. The next thing we need to disconnect is this brake line to prevent brake food from escaping. I think we can do this little trick if we get in the car and use a pole to push down on the brake and then place it on the seat rail when we disconnect the brake lines, it should stop the brake fluid from constantly dripping.
First I remove the parking brake cable from the parking brake caliper and then I will start trying to remove the brake line but the brake line felt. like it was going to break, so I decided to take the brake line from the caliper, which meant removing it and then twisting the brake line. Yes, hey, and look, there is no trip, there is no liquid, there is no liquid, it works, there will be a lot of liquid. Although it is good news, a brake caliper is good. Next we will remove this full suspension on the left rear while adding more parts to the Blackboard.
Now I'm undoing the driveshaft bolts that connect the driveshaft to the gearbox and then we should be able to lift it up oh yeah, continue Fabian oh oh there's an arm there's an arm just hold it, release it from there yeah okay I think that we should replace all of this so we have suspension frames that I think we should replace with threaded shocks I think we're going to do that now drop the top link frame Wishbone wheel hub what we say bent Bolt bolt bent that bolt it's bent oh yeah look yeah okay we should replace this whole side suspension back to the Slate of that okay I think it covers it all just one well is there any damage behind this oh what oh no oh my oh no no that's not good is it meant to be like this?
I doubt it if that looks like that and that looks like that I doubt it's supposed to look like that, oh God, I think we have to take the engine out, how was that done? He must have literally deflected it up, hit it there and just broken it, yeah, you think, yeah, that's what he's doing. oh no, oh no, this is because because the frame damage is here and it somehow hit the exhaust manifold, it looks like we're going to have to take the engine out to repair it and if we can fix the frame, can we? can we put another one? engine in it V12 a V12 in a gardo oh my will that will be a world first I think someone has done it we have an idea we have an idea this is going to cost me money yes so here we are but the engine has to come out due to this, come to us, that part was also broken and look at the exhaust, good job, well done, but I found a Lamborghini Avent door motor, so I'm sorry you want to make it faster than it was. it could be slower but it would sound better it would be slower but it would sound better so I'll be safer I'll be safer I'll be much safer with a V12 than with a V10 with twin turbos which maybe you can draw because it would sound better so it would have to go as far quick to hear the engine.
I think it's a very good idea once we convinced Hannah that a V12 swap would be the best and safest way to fix this car. We started to get excited but she then called Ricky to see if it was possible and she let him down. The problem you have, friend, is how an Avent door works. The engine is in the middle, yes, the gearbox is in the front, oh, it's like that, so the gear. the box is basically your setup and then the back dip is on the back. Oh I thought it was the other way around on the invented doors, it's not like that, because the V12 engines are located in a completely different way to the v10, it seems like it's going to be too much work, maybe I was a little ambitious, so for now It seems that we will stay with the V10 biturbo engine.
Even if this could be repaired, we have to take it apart further, it can't be broken now. It's more than it is, I know I'm trying to throw it away almost, the endless list is getting bigger on the board. Freddy is taking the engine covers off and then disconnecting the wiring to the engine cover wiring loom, after that can you guys undo the engine cover or trunk bolts and should we be able to lift it up, another thing that needs to be replaced . Yes, we now have a much better view of the inside of the engine bay with the right taillight and with all that out we can inspect for further damage.
I have it in the rear so far without removing the engine. I think we've uncovered most of the damage. How are you so sure you can say that? I think it looks pretty good before we start removing the engine. which we know we're going to have to do, there's more damage in the front, so we're going to have to cover a lot of the things in the front, the back Tony, Matthew, hi, this is called a getter bid of wheels, yeah man, good news and Bad news, this part here look at this part of the frame that bolts up there, so the bad news is that it's broken, but the good news is that it can come loose to be replaced. uh, oh, more bad news, oh, that's bad news, yes, that's very bad news.
Doesn't it shoot out or is that it? Yeah, um, no, oh, okay, it's bad news, oh, it's very bad news, actually, it's a similar story on the front of the car as it is on the rear when removing all this suspension. That way we can see exactly what the damage is on the frame. First of all, it is the lumbo lumbo tie rod end. Once it's off, I can disconnect the bolt holding the suspension strut on top of the frame, which doesn't look very good there. then undo the bolt holding the drop link to the suspension and lift everything up easily.
Know what? Plus, all of these parts will probably already add up to more than half of the car's value, so that's not the case. You don't need our jobs and everything, so it's not financially viable to even repair this car, but also do you know there are a lot of people who have kids, but that doesn't make financial sense? You don't have children either. to make a profit it's definitely not like that, this is my son so it's not yes, this is my son so it shouldn't matter if it makes financial sense or not it's because it's my son I'm doing it look, it makes sense look, no That makes sense, no, I think we should put it all back together and cancel the insurance with the front bumper that can no longer be used and then the front protection bar.
Great moment, my dad is now adding pieces to the board and after that I can go down. He puts it back down and opens the hood. This frame is pretty bad, but to get a better look, the hood needs to be lifted by disconnecting the windshield washer tube that connects to the windshield washer jets, unscrew the hood from the hinges and my dad and I can lift it up. car, which doesn't make this frame look any better, my dad is removing both wiper blades so we can remove the plastics around the windshield, then I'm trying to remove the plastic tub that is used for storage in the car and once it's out, we'll be able to see much better the damage to the frame, the aluminum, what's happening, it looks really bad, it's bad, but look how soft the aluminum is, it's got all these little areas here that wrinkle, but you can just bend the aluminum.
It's very easy to bend so you just have to hit it a little bit and everything squishes out, but it acted like bubble wrap around me so in one way it's safe and in another way it's a nightmare to fix because the aluminum. It bends very easily, so we have to find a way to fix all this and with aluminum you can't use a normal soldering iron, so we have to figure out where we are going to get it from. and if we're going to weld on a front frame, we have to make sure it's in the exact same place now because of how bad this frame is and the fact that it's aluminum and the fact that we don't have any experience repairing this.
I called a specialist to come and inspect the car to make sure it's actually repairable, but in order for him to inspect it we have to remove all the parts around the frame to get a good look at it, so that's exactly what we're doing now. : I'm removing the passenger side headlight which is unfortunately damaged and my dad is removing the frame which actually bolts on. Then we are under the car removing the broken undertray, which later revealed it to be a broken radiator. which is actually a spare one that is used to cool the turbos, after that I get in the car so we can go down to the footwell and unscrew the bolt that disconnects the steering column from the steering rack because we have to remove it all the steering rack off the car and remove it from the column, then we can go back outside and slide the steering rack off the frame, which leaves us with the next step that we're going to have to do anyway is remove. the engine because of that dent in the exhaust manifold that is going to need to be repaired and we also need to see if there is any further damage to the frame here as well and if the frame can be repaired we will have to remove the engine.
Anyway, welding that piece down there, um, and I think also, hopefully, when we

rebuild

, this gives us options to cool the interior when we take it out, maybe the engine will be a different color than the color of the car we're going for. . To do this, the first thing to do is remove the first turbo kit. Right now I'm disconnecting the oil return tube from one of thethe turbos. At first it didn't seem like there was much oil there, but little by little it started coming out and my dad was doing the same thing. Same thing on the other side so you can disconnect the hose connected to the charge coolers and the hose connected to the bleed valve as well and that's one turbo and exhaust off and my dad removed the other turbo and exhaust which leaves us with this because this is all a later brand and there are no manuals for it.
I'm making sure to mark and label all the lines that are disconnected because there is no way for me to know how they got rejoined. Then I'm going to disconnect the hoses that go to the cargo coolers, the ones up here use a cclip and then you can disconnect the connection and then you can remove one of the cargo coolers and my dad removes the other one and then we're going to work on try to remove the strut mount from the car's engine. First of all comes this aftermarket tray and then once we unscrew it we can remove the clamp that is actually broken.
Another thing we will need to replace now there are many spare parts that make this turbo kit work including the wiring and hoses. all of which you have to log out and remember exactly where you came back from and this part is just one of them. We are left with all the aftermarket stuff to do the usual things on the engine, everything that connects the engine to the car. We have to disconnect the water hoses, the electrical mounts, the engine mounts, yes, yes, yes, yes, the worst thing is that this is all CX ECU, so the standard ecus are gone, so we have all the ECUs from the aftermarket, all the aftermarket wiring, which I didn't do and I don't know where it went or what it does and I don't want to break it because it was very expensive £10,000 for CX just for the ECU, yes just for the ECU and do the wiring 10,000 and I think it was a special price. price that special price what is retail? 20 yes, I think about 400, so the first batch of liquid that comes out is the cooling liquid.
I'm removing the hoses from the coolant reservoir and then I can take out the coolant reservoir or expansion tank like some. people call it, so we're going to go under the car and disconnect the hoses that go from the engine to the metal hoses that run under the car. I'm not sure how Lamborghini does it, yes, and that's the coolant made after. which is the oil, so the oil is not in the crankcase, it's in a tank in this Tony, yeah, what's your favorite fluid? my favorite fluid, yeah, other than the stuff that goes in engines, yeah, why food W food, yeah, oh, there's a new flavor there.
Actually I don't know if it's new, but it's new for us, yeah, I should try it, go get it, meanwhile they went to get the new flavor. I started disconnecting the lines from the oil tank, caramel popcorn, yes this is it, yes, look at that caramel popcorn. with the top line disconnected from the oil tank i can move it a little to free it but i have to go underneath to disconnect the bottom one which is a meal replacement the drink replaces a meal so we don't have to have lunch now because we have all the vitamins and minerals, exactly 26 within that 500 calorie well, will keep us full until our next meal and now I have gone under the car to disconnect the final oil line to the oil tank, after that I should be able to remove it now best of W food is there's a great selection of flavors what we have here we have creamy cookies oh yeah yeah I love it I love it yeah you want this and it's actually W food's birthday right now right?
It's your birthday? Well, how old are they? They're not as old as you. So we celebrated by lighting a makeshift candle at W Food as a birthday present. They have made a 20% discount for all of you, if you want to try W Food. Try and find your favorite flavor with a package flavor with a link in the description and the 20% discount code listed below me right now. Greetings. W food oil is now available. The next fluid is: are we going to do gearbox or gearbox or gearbox or the next one, so this? The gearbox is a manual gearbox, it's the same as in the manual uh gardos, but they are hydraulically controlled with electronics, so it uses hydraulic pressure to select which gear, which makes me like the E gear quite a bit.
I think it's fun, hit the gears. but it wears out the clutch. I believe your clutch is expected to last between 5 and 10,000 miles. I already went through one, so I like it. I'm thinking of doing a manual shift with a manual shift, it means we have to change all this by putting an extra pedal under the dashes, which would probably mean a dash outside and a gear selector of all kinds, so it's a big job changing it to manual and then also 1,000 horsepower with a manual selector would probably be a little crazy. So I think I'm going to stick with the E gear, but it's difficult, so now we have to remove all these hydraulic lines that connect it to the box.
In fact, the only line we need to disconnect is the power line. the gearbox oil, which is this one here, and then the gearbox fluid comes out, after that we move on to the fuel and there's only one hose that feeds the fuel lines, so I'm going to disconnect that and then we moved on to the Power Steering Fluid and disconnected that hose then to the airon and all the gas had already been released when I hit the tree. The next electrical system remember this car has aftermarket ECU's there is one ECU for the left side of the engine and one for the right side instead of disconnecting each plug that goes to the engine sensors we are just going to disconnect the connectors big of the ECUs and take the engine out with all the wiring connected away from the car, but to do that I have to go up inside the car so I can access the wiring that goes there, so all the wiring goes to this box here, an ECU here and another E there, but I literally have no space there. it's zero, you can't even put the seats all the way forward because it just hits the sunroof, that thing, whatever it is, because the car is in the two position Ram.
I can't really open the car doors very often. wide which means I can't remove the seat so I'm working in such a tight space that I have to unplug each motor relay and disconnect it from the bottom of those connections and then the same with the fuses. Okay, and after that we'll have a huge wiring harness that we'll have to slide through the rear firewall into the engine compartment. I really hope we figure out how to put this all back together once it's all inserted through that hole, you can see the amount. of cables that this engine needs to work and it is very good, that is the wiring that is ridiculous, the last thing that holds it in the most important thing, the engine mounts look one, two and then another, two on the other side, two They are going to fall now. oh oh oh I think the motor moved to lift it.
We have to tie the straps to the engine and then have the engine crane lift it out. I believe the Gardo engine is designed to lift directly off the engine. bay because by taking it out this way the engine bay was getting tighter the further back we went but eventually we got it out, that's it, yeah, yeah, oh my god, that's not the way to get a V10 out like it would have been easier in those two posts well the good news is this whole frame looks good everything bolts down from the chassis anyway but this all looks good now we can access this bottom weld here like this part to get in There you can weld on all of them.
What we have to do now is take measurements of everything and make sure everything is in order, but just by looking at it, nothing seems that bad. I think the fourth part and everything else took the most impact. big square dent here and to remove the exhaust manifold, I mean it seems even difficult with the engine off, how the hell are the bolts for this? They're somewhere deep, well we'll cross that bridge when we go but that has to come out and maybe we could also upgrade it to 4 to one headers which would get better sound probably more drive too which I don't know if that's a good idea now that the engine is off we can see. the full extent of the damage not only to the engine but also to the frame and this list seems endless but what we wanted to know is if this frame is actually repairable but first I had some specialists come and look at the car so we have Bob and Dell Dell from the machine shop and well I don't know much about how much they can actually repair but they sound pretty confident but I don't know for me I don't know that they have done it.
I haven't seen the front of the car yet, so the rear is missing like a bar, it's like a little, there's nothing to show the guys around the car, showing the damage on the rear and all the damage on the back part. Up front, both guys are pretty knowledgeable when it comes to these types of repairs, what we do is measure from the bolt hole to the plate and make sure it's the same on both Wickeds, but as the guys mentioned, this type of repair It's not It's not done very often anymore, the car is usually just scrapped due to the cost and labor involved in doing so, so would they take this on top of that?
I mean, it's a great job, um, but I just want to know if you can do it, is it something you would do, yeah, come on, that's what we want, no way, he's going to do a hit, he's going to do a hit, It is not a possibility. I think, come on, dad, that's it, that's a blow, it just disappeared. By the way, that's two bang oh oh, that's two bang bang, that's three bang. I told you, I can't deny that you have given me the best.
