Emission Standards:
Euro 3 / Euro 4 compliant depending on model year and engine.
Transmission Type:
Typically a 5-speed manual transmission.
Optional Transmission:
Some models may have offered an automated manual transmission (Dualogic).
Gear Ratios:
Specific gear ratios are detailed within the manual for each engine/transmission combination.
Transmission Fluid:
Manual: Typically SAE 75W-90 GL-4 or GL-5 synthetic gear oil. Automatic: Specific ATF fluid specified by Fiat.
Body Styles:
Panel Van (Cargo), Combi (Passenger/Leisure).
Cargo Volume:
Varies significantly by body style and configuration, offering substantial cargo capacity for its class.
Gross Vehicle Weight:
Specifications will vary by engine and configuration, typically ranging from 1700kg to 2000kg GVW.
Euro Ncap Results:
Early models had mixed results; later models improved. The manual will detail specific safety system components and their function.

ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) often optional or standard on higher trims, EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution) may be present.
Passive Safety Features:
Front airbags, seatbelt pretensioners, side impact beams, reinforced body structure.
Radio Options:
Basic radio/CD player systems were common. Higher trims might feature steering wheel audio controls.
Driver Aid Features:
Limited by the era; ABS was the primary driver assistance feature. Parking sensors were an optional extra.
Connectivity Options:
Basic connectivity via auxiliary input on some audio systems, or Bluetooth hands-free kits as aftermarket additions.
Oil Change Interval:
Typically every 15,000 km or 1 year, whichever comes first (or as per specific engine requirements, e.g., 20,000 km for some diesel models). Refer to manual for precise intervals.
Timing Belt Replacement:
Critical for petrol engines (e.g., 1.2L, 1.4L). Typically every 90,000 - 120,000 km or 5-6 years. Diesel engines with timing chains have different maintenance requirements.
Engine Oil Spec:
Dependent on engine. Petrol: Fiat 9.55535-G2 or S2 (e.g., 10W-40 or 5W-40). Diesel: Fiat 9.55535-N2 or S2 (e.g., 5W-40, often with DPF considerations for later models).
Coolant Spec:
Paraflu UP (Parafrost) or equivalent concentrated coolant with distilled water (50/50 mix), typically blue or yellow.
Brake Fluid Spec:
DOT 4 (or DOT 4 Plus for enhanced performance) brake fluid.
Common Problems:
Issues can include: clutch wear, suspension component wear (ball joints, bushings), EGR valve issues in diesel models, window regulator failures, dashboard warning light illumination (e.g., ABS, Airbag), minor electrical gremlins.
Oil Filter Example:
