Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a check engine light service take?

• Initial diagnostic scan typically takes 30–60 minutes using factory-grade OBD-II tools to read and verify codes.
• Simple repairs (sensor swaps, loose gas cap) can be completed the same day; more involved work (ignition, exhaust, engine repairs) may take several hours to multiple days.
• At Lamborghini Boston we prioritize efficient turnaround and transparent timelines — often delivering faster service and better long-term value than independent shops.
• Warranty-covered repairs must be done at a certified dealership to ensure coverage and long-term savings; our service advisors will provide a precise estimate and timeline up front.

What is the first thing to check when the check engine light comes on?

• Start with a visual and basic check: secure gas cap, inspect for obvious leaks, loose wiring, or disconnected vacuum lines.
• Perform a scan to retrieve diagnostic trouble codes — this reveals whether the issue is emissions, misfire, sensor, or mechanical.
• If codes indicate imminent engine damage (misfire, overheat, or catalytic converter stress) reduce speed and have the vehicle inspected immediately by our dealership.
• For warranty protection and accurate repair, any follow-up work should be completed at a certified Lamborghini dealership to preserve coverage and ensure proper parts and calibration.

How much does a check engine light diagnostic cost for a 2014 Lamborghini Aventador?

• Diagnostic scan fees generally range from $100 to $200, depending on the depth of testing and any road tests required.
• At Lamborghini Boston our diagnostics are comprehensive and often yield immediate savings by identifying the precise issue—reducing needless repairs and long-term costs compared with trial-and-error fixes.
• When repairs are covered under warranty they must be performed at a certified dealership to retain coverage; this protects you from future expenses and ensures factory-spec parts and calibration.
• Check our Service Specials (/promotions/service/index.htm) or schedule service (/schedule-service.htm) for current offers that can lower your out-of-pocket cost.

What does it mean when the check engine light comes on in a 2014 Lamborghini Aventador?

• The light signals the vehicle’s onboard computer has detected a fault — ranging from minor emissions issues to serious engine or transmission problems.
• Common triggers include sensor failures, misfires, emissions control faults, and fuel system irregularities; the underlying code determines urgency and repair scope.
• Ignoring the light can lead to reduced performance, higher fuel consumption, failed emissions tests, and more costly repairs down the line.
• Have our factory-trained technicians diagnose the issue promptly so repairs are done correctly and warranty-eligible work is completed at a certified Lamborghini service center.

What is the most common reason for check engine light on a 2014 Lamborghini Aventador?

• Common causes include oxygen or air/fuel sensors, ignition misfires, and emissions system detections like catalytic efficiency faults (P0420) or fuel trim issues (P0171/P0174).
• Sensors can fail or drift over time; misfires may stem from spark, fuel, or mechanical issues — each has distinct diagnostic steps that require OEM tools.
• Repairing early at a certified dealership often costs less overall than deferring service; we deliver accurate repairs that prevent escalation and preserve vehicle value.
• For warranty-covered failures, certified dealership repairs are required to maintain coverage and ensure genuine parts and factory calibration.
