Read was is written on the actual filter and visit a parts dealer, there are about 10 replacements from different manufacturers, Hengst, Mahle, UFI etc.

Hi Daniel
My 88 5000 QV Countach came with a Fram aftermarket oil filter, fitted by a respected independent service agent, who I trust.
Here are the figures:
Original Lamborghini Part No. 001505914 GBP 45.96 from www.eurospares.co.uk
or
FRAM part No. PH2842 GBP £3.50 (!).
Available to order from www.thehappymotorist.co.uk. Arrived in two days. I'm sure they can post outside UK, or you can source locally.
Good luck!

I think you meant FIAM not fram, FIAM was also OEM like UFI.

Nope, I definitely meant FRAM That's what it says on the tin!

You put FRAM on your Lamborghini?! HAHAHA.

Research. FRAM = trash.

A bit of research and you can find out that F used Fram in their Formula 1 cars...

That still does not change my opinion as I have seen the manufacturing quality first hand.

That should help. Every automobile forum in the universe seems to agree.
